Tips

After the climb you can enjoy the view of the surrounding area from various vantage points. Benches have been set up almost every lookout.

The circular route on the ridge is highly recommended, informative nature trail with nature displays on the Ehrenbürg.

From up here (assuming the weather is right) you can see large parts of the Franconian Switzerland, Erlangen, Forchheim, Hirschaid .... etc.
Very worthwhile!
