Hiking

The Langenau Floating Pond is a historic pond in the Langenau Valley in the Franconian Forest, formerly used for timber rafting. Today, it is a nature reserve and an important habitat, particularly for beavers, who have their burrows there.

A small pond just after the source. In spring an adventure pool for toads 🥰 A bench invites you to linger and you can watch the ducks and toads
