The route then heads east again to Füssen at the foot of the Forggen see (Lake Forggen). Many other routes start or pass through Füssen including the King Ludwig Way, the Ostallgäuer Höhenweg, the Lechhöhenweg and the Königlich-Bayerische-Radltour.

On to Hohenschmangau the walk enters the huge Pöllatschlucht chasm up to Neuschwanstein Castle.
