フランコニアンスイスの峡谷・トップ20

A mighty rock arch forms the auditorium of the Ruin Theater, built in 1747. The orchestra pit, the backdrop arches, and the back wall are made of rubble stone. The 86-seat mini-theater is used by the Bayreuth Studio Stage for performances in July and August. The ambiance of this small Rococo theater transports the audience to the world of the 18th century.

… and if the sign says: Please do not let dogs into the water… then that is what is meant… and don’t throw the black bags on the path either

A beautiful, winding dry valley with lean grassland slopes. When the snow melts and after long periods of rain, the tumbleweeds transform the valley into a watery landscape.

The gate to the Eibgrad, whoever fits through there, also makes the grade

Here - not far from the Schüttersmühle - you can find a variety of what the “Franconian Switzerland” has to offer: bizarre rock formations, narrow paths, a wildly romantic valley with springs, former mills, a trout farm and lots of legends.

The Felsensteig is a short but spectacular path that is built into a deep, particularly impressive rocky gorge. The path can be walked without any safety measures, but you should wear good hiking boots and be sure-footed. There are several steps to climb, and in some places there are railings. This is usually not a problem for dogs either.

The Eibgrat is an elongated ridge of rocks with a via ferrata stretching some 1.5 km. Here is the eastern entrance to the Eibgrat with the small rock gate at the beginning of the beautiful Kraxelei. On the way you have enough time to breathe and admire the bizarre rocks.

The source is practically in the southernmost pond of the Klumpertalweiher. The area is now separated by a railing because it is a biotope. Down the stream to the north, you can let off steam again and let the dogs splash around. Of course, it is not appropriate for the biotope itself. The lower Jägersteig runs just above it.
