The Drachenweg is a family-friendly hiking trail in Roßhaupten, Germany, that offers a unique experience for both children and adults. The trail is based on the legend of Saint Magnus, who allegedly killed a dragon in the 8th century. The trail features several stations with information about the legend and the history of the region, as well as a 'Drachenbrünnle' where visitors can drink from a fountain and allegedly gain supernatural powers. The trail is suitable for families and offers stunning views of the surrounding countryside, including the Forggensee lake and the Allgäu mountains. Along the way, visitors can also see a stone dragon at the Tiefentalbrücke and explore the romantic Tiefental valley
