Hiking

Bizarre rock formations, mysterious caves and picturesque villages fascinate in Franconian Switzerland, through which the Franconian Trail runs for around 100 kilometers.

Hiking

Very nice section of the trail almost on the plateau. There is still time and air to enjoy

Hiking

From the north of Franconia, the Franconian Trail leads through the Franconian Forest, the green low mountain range, into the gentle Obermain•Jura region, into the cave landscape of Franconian Switzerland and into the castle world of Nürnberger Land, touches the water landscape of the Franconian Lake District and ends in the Jura landscape of the Altmühltal Nature Park . Rough and lovely, barren and lush, endless nature and urban culture: Due to the diversity of the travel landscapes, opposites are close together along the Frankenweg.
