グラーフェンゲハイクのおすすめツーリングルート

「マリエナウアー聖堂」 正式名称は「聖母の訪問聖堂」 中世の昔から人々はそこへ巡礼してきました。 現在の教会は17世紀のもので、壮麗な主祭壇と、漆喰、フレスコ画で豊かに装飾された内部を持つ、印象的なバロック建築です。 中心には崇敬される聖母マリア像があります。 1935年に「小聖堂（Basilica minor）」に昇格、教皇ピウス11世がこの教会に特別な栄誉を与えました。 聖堂は、マリエナウアーという静かな場所の、のどかな自然の中にあります。

There used to be up to 150 sawmills along the streams in the Franconian Forest valleys. The sawmill at the blast furnace in the Steinach Valley ceased operation in 1980.

Finally, cyclists no longer have to ride on the road. From the town center, the bike path is somewhat hidden and barely marked. If you can't find this entrance, you can at least switch to the bike path at the end of the town. After about 1km, you then have a connection to the forest path (which leads almost exclusively downhill) to Marktschorgast, Wirsberg and the steam locomotive museum.

Directly to the church, partly through the forest. But when the weather is nice there are also pedestrians on the relatively narrow path.

very nicely done. I had to stop and take photos before continuing via Sauerhof to Ahornis

Hikers are welcome here. There are delicious snacks, especially the smoked fish, but the cheese platter is also a dream. Children won't get bored either: dogs, cats and chickens run around freely. There is also a playground.

The old cutting mill at the blast furnace at the entrance to the Steinach Valley offers information on all aspects of wood processing and cutting demonstrations.

Beautiful forest area, perfect for cycling and hiking.
