    Road cycling

    The Hesselberg with 689 meters is the highest elevation in Central Franconia. Up here you have fantastic views in good weather, which can reach into the Alps. There are many rare plants here, it is not for nothing that this is a nature reserve. Hiking is very popular around the mountain and there are good conditions for paragliding, hang gliding and gliding.

    The road up here is unfortunately a dead end, but worth the climb. ;)

    Highest mountain in Middle Franconia and a popular destination for cyclists, hikers and other visitors. The ascent is a dead end for racing cyclists, but it is definitely worth it if the weather is nice due to the view.
