It was super nice, almost too hot.
But after the delicious meal at the Wiesengrund restaurant in Ungelstetten, we were refreshed by a huge downpour.
It's a good thing we were dry in the car 😅

Great gorge with lots of fun and water for the dogs. You should avoid making the return journey at midday along the forest path that runs from south to north, with the sun at your back.
Unfortunately, the motorway runs very close to the gorge and so you constantly have this penetrating noise in your ears.

31°C, so it had to be a water walk. The Franconian Dune Trail between Ungelstetten and Brunn is lovely to walk, varied and pleasantly cool and shady with plenty of access to water for my dogs. The way back over the wonderful soft paths in the pine forest with the heather already beginning to bloom is always beautiful.

You also usually meet nice people to chat to.

For me personally, one of the most beautiful hiking trails 🥾 in the Nuremberg region 🍺. It went idyllically along the Röthenbach to Ungelstetten. There is a great beer garden near the old barn with snacks and cakes. The waiters are quick and friendly. The route can be extended as desired. The Birkensee is also a great place to take …
