    Hiking

    Many lizards can be seen here when the sun is shining. Definitely a hiking highlight.

    Hiking

    Sand dunes are more likely to be expected by the sea or in the Sahara. If sand dunes are conquered by vegetation, then you can see it in Franconia - along the 85 km long "Fränkischer Dünenweg" circular route in the Nuremberg region, which also leads past this highlight.
