Far back on Günthersbühler Straße, at the stone bridge in an easterly direction, you can see a part of the former Ringbahn route that has grown over and is covered with leaves. In the other direction you can see a sun-drenched corridor where the first work on the “Bahn 2.0 lifeline” project is already underway."For plant species and animals that need light that can wander through here," says Petr Mlnarik, employee of the Nuremberg Landscape Conservation Association; these include grasshoppers, butterflies or lizardsnordbayern.de/region/nuernberg/erlenstegener-forst-alte-bahntrasse- wird-zum-naturerlebnis-1.4504917

The small detour to the small railway bridge is worthwhile. It is very quiet with beautiful vegetation 😉

… follow the historic Ringbahn from the junction to the Bayerische Staatsbahn between Erlenstegen and Behringersdorf to Nordostbahnhof. It is surprising to see how much of the historic infrastructure is to be seen yet, in particular huge bridges in the middle of the woods!
