    Hiking

    Above Solnhofen you hike on a narrow path through a wild orchard. Various original fruit trees and bushes grow along the way and you can find out a lot about the plants on information boards. There is also a wonderful view of the Altmühltal.

    Hiking

    Great hiking trail, similar to Gungoldinger juniper heath. Info boards inform about the different trees.

    In 1905, the Solnhofen Beautification Society established the "Experimental Garden" here. The cherry and walnut trees, as well as numerous hazelnut bushes, were planted to provide food for the local population. Over the years, only about 90 hazelnut bushes survived.

    In 2009, the Beautification Society decided to transform the now overgrown experimental garden into a wild fruit orchard. Between 2011 and 2014, 80% of the hazelnut bushes were cleared, the rootstocks removed, and wild fruit trees planted.
