クラフツホーファーフォーストの天然記念物・トップ20

Since 2003, the last truly wild horses have lived in a large enclosure in the Tennenlohe Forest near Erlangen. They help maintain the open sandy areas by grazing on grasses and young shrubs. A circular path leads around the enclosure – with a bit of luck, you can observe the animals from the path.

A walk around the lake can be a lovely family walk. A total of 6.5 km with no elevation gain and a lovely, varied route.

A large enclosure is available to the wild horses, in which they ensure that the open spaces are preserved.

In the east of Erlangen lies the vast recreation area and nature reserve of the Tennenloher Forest. It is one of the largest sand ecosystems in southern Germany and inspires with its extensive, almost steppe-like open spaces, mostly densely covered with fragrant heather. Goats and a relevant population of the rare Przewalski's horses graze on these. In addition, you will find moor paths secured with wooden planks, which give the landscape an almost mystical character https://www.outdooractive.com/de/route/wandern/staedteregion-nuernberg/wildpferde-und-cheeky-goats-im-tennenloher-forst/125619433/

Always fascinating, sometimes more, sometimes less water and again completely different when you walk along the stream bed in dry weather

Currently you can see a lot of goats and 4 wild horses right at the beginning of the tour at the first large game reserve. After that we didn't see any more animals yesterday on the entire 9.2 km tour. It's best to take binoculars with you, then you can see them better 😉. The area is quite large and so you can only see the animals from a distance.

In 1959 the Nuremberg city council decided to create the Wöhrder See. It was completed in 1981. Before that, the Pegnitz flowed through a floodplain in two arms, which was often flooded. In addition to the flood exposure of Nuremberg's old town, a much-used recreational area was created with the Wöhrder See and the bomb crater landscape in the Pegnitzwiesen, which the Second World War had left behind, was eliminated.
