Today we cycled along the Pegnitz Valley Cycle Path, from Neuhaus to Vorra, and from there to Eschenbach. It's a very beautiful cycle path, occasionally with roads because it's unavoidable. We then returned through the Hirschbach Valley toward Eschenfelden, unfortunately only on roads. From there, we entered the forest again to Ratzenhof, then via Bärnhof to Krottensee.
