description

On a beautiful spring afternoon, my family and I start this easy hike at the station "Ins-Dorf". On the "St. Jodel" we enjoy a barbecue, while the children discover the playground. Then we go to the ruins of the "Hasenburg" and return to Ins via "Fürstengräber" (princely tombs), burial mounds from the early Iron Age. Don't forget to enjoy the magnificent views of the Alps and the lakes on a clear day.
