에텐슈타트 최고의 사이클링 경로

As of early 2026: Several years ago, the buildings and grounds seemed destined for ruin. The castle, one of the oldest Franconian aristocratic residences, is surrounded by forests and meadows. First mentioned in 1470, the building owes its nickname, "Water Castle," to the water-filled main moat surrounding the castle and the nearby Gutzenweiher pond. A private investor took it on as his retirement project a few years ago and completed the conversion and renovation work in 2025. It is now in the process of becoming a tourist attraction with a hotel and restaurant, as well as an attractive venue for events and conferences. For more information, see https://syburg2025.de/

Magnificent views to the north, east, and south. There's also a panoramic display showing all the geographical landmarks in the area – and what I liked best of all: a guestbook/summit book in a box by the hiking information board! It's impressive to see how far people travel to get here!

Picturesque, small old town without touristy frills

Scenic through the Valley of Pleasure

Great construction in the landscape

There are still many beautiful views to be had; the entire Altmühl Valley Cycle Path is worth a bike ride. Ideally, a multi-day tour.

Great view towards Weißenburg
