The government of Middle Franconia designated the Pegnitztal Ost as a nature reserve in December 2018. Designated paths and trails are accessible all year round. Otherwise, there are protected periods during which you are not allowed to leave the paths.

Nuremberg is full of green oases and since December 2018 parts of the Pegnitz have been designated as the Pegnitztal Ost nature reserve. Stroll along the Pegnitz, have a picnic in the shade of the huge trees - as a city dweller you don't have to go far to get into the countryside.

A short walk from Nuremberg train station takes you into the countryside, along the beautiful Pegnitz river (watch out for ducks and bathers 😁).
