The Riesgraben is part of the formerly very elaborate fortress of the city. Today it is a popular park for strolling and lingering between the outer and inner city walls.

Hiking

Once around the historic city wall is a nice little round with about 1.9 km. You will pass some places worth seeing. Pay attention e.g. the Torture Tower, the Fox Tower (cannonballs are still stuck in the wall - I think from the Thirty Years' War) and the Amerbacher Tor. In a small section you walk through a small park with benches to rest.
