"Four Pearls on the Way of St. James" is the name given to the Reflection Path built in 2012 near Großhaslach, which allows visitors to experience the rolling, hilly landscape combined with words from the Bible. The four stations reflect the four elements: water, fire, air and earth. If you drive the route from Nuremberg to Rothenburg ob der Tauber in the direction of Central Franconia, you will automatically pass all four stations.

The 4 pearls on the Way of St. James embody the elements water, fire, air and earth. Very nicely laid out approx. 4 km long circular route. At stations 2 + 3 also nice seating.

Unfortunately, there is no opportunity to rest a little after the hike or bike ride.
