Wiesent Valley

Highlight • Gorge

After the descent from Pottenstein you drive a great route along the museum railway and the Wiesent along the valley, an almost flat route.

This beautiful path runs parallel to the Wiesent river, the railway line and the federal road B470. Of all the options, it is the best option for hiking and cycling. Its varied route is fun anyway. :)

A long up-down-up.... And then up-down-up....
The most beautiful round with super nice views and trails even with a bit of repositioning. This is how I imagine Franconian Switzerland 🇨🇭
Cheffin is getting a better and better picture of stick & stone and getting off less and less 😍.... I'm still working on it....
Otherwise: sometimes narrow, sometimes wide, steam …

Komoot is hallucinating, that was a good 1,100m of elevation gain, not over 1700.
But beware: Do not follow the route between Streitberg and Neideck blindly. The old paths no longer exist, I had to go cross-country through the undergrowth. Replan this section.

An absolute bang 💥

There is extreme ! Be careful! Because the whole thing goes down very very steeply and a way is also very difficult …

Difficult, steep tour, which is made somewhat easier by the fact that the steep climbs from Streitberg to the Neideckrücken and from Kuchenmühle to Albertshof are largely on asphalt.
Attention: at km 2.7 the path after the right-hand bend is blocked by a number of trees lying across the road. I kind of wandered around; Better not to turn right …

Yes, we are repeat offenders and meet again for a tour together 😎. Armin left the planning to me and of course I lead him to my favorite re4️⃣. So I packed a few great spots in the Franconian region into a smooth Ründla. It came as it had to come, a great bike day with the well-trained steel calf. …
