The river Leiblach, a semi-natural mid-sized mountain stream that mounds into Lake Constance between Lindau and Hoerbranz, is the valley's lifeline. In its underflow, the river marks the border between Germany and Austria. Enchanted ravine creeks, shady ravine forests, gushing waterfalls and fantastic views are waiting for hikers. Again and again, gravel banks and flat water  areas are inviting the hikers to reat and have a picnic. In Bad Diezlings (Austria) the restaurant of the same name is located. In this restaurant, the world-famous writer Norbert Jacques wrote his novel "Dr. Mabuse the Gambler" in 1920. The Kneipp facility in Hörbranz provides a pleasant cooling from the point of view of health. The pond "Diezlinger Teich" is the livng space of a multitude of animals and plants. In the convent "Maria Stern" in Gwiggen there is a priory shop worth seeing. Hikers are esteemed guests on the adjoining terrace.

The diverse hiking tour runs on forest and meadow paths and lasts half a day. Some short sections of the path are asphalted. Descending to the river Leiblach and ascending to the Convent Gwiggen several altitude metres have to be covered.
