    The highest point in the Nuremberg region, so you also have a beautiful view here. Visiting the castle requires some off-road mobility, but is highly recommended.

    In winter, when there is snow, there is a ski lift with a toboggan run nearby. There are a few restaurants in town, the cream puffs served here are well known. You should have a craving for sweets, the cream puffs are large and filled with plenty of cream.
