October 23, 2022,Kinderwagenwandern - Moritzberg & Klingender Wasserfall

Nice tour that is contradictory: if you want to see the waterfall, then it is better if it has rained before. However, this makes for muddy paths. Matching clothes and slightly sturdy shoes are recommended for the kids.

Not suitable for children's / handcarts. We would also advise against off-road vehicles. Krax or a sling are recommended.

We used the last nice day for now to visit the sounding waterfall. It was very idyllic.
It was nice that the restaurant up on the Moritzberg was also open during the week.
A nice tour!

From the parking lot at the kindergarten in Gartenweg, it first goes through fields and meadows to the Klingender Wasserfall. Over the millennia, the Hüttenbach has …

Wonderful circular hike from the starting point at Schönberg to the “Nuremberg local mountain” Moritzberg.
The numerous families we met were mostly on the paved roads. Corona is currently preventing us from stopping at the mountain inn, but the "window sale" at least provided us with coffee and a Seidla beer, unfortunately in a plastic cup. The way back (Red …
