A beautiful view over the Wiesenttal from a rock. A railing protects against falling and a bank invites you to linger.

Streitberg rock gate

Highlight • Natural Monument

The Felsentor is as the name implies a natural gate between two mighty rocks above Streitberg. Many hiking trails lead through or past here; so also the Frankenweg, a long-distance hiking trail, which crosses all Franconia, including the Franconian Switzerland.

Hello dear hikers, inside, on some paths extreme sure footing is an advantage, it is also like in the high mountains over hill and dale, but a beautiful route even at over 30 C in the shade

This morning, together with my parents and one of my two brothers, I went on an absolute classic hiking tour in Scheena Franconian Switzerland to Streitberg (Forchheim district/Upper Franconia).
