Biotopes in Fürth's City Forest

Highlight • Natural

Somewhat hidden in the Fürth city forest, the green lung of Fürth, but even if you can't find your way here, every path in the city forest is worth taking, it's never a "detour"!

The highlight of a walk through the city forest is the view from the observation tower at the Alte Veste (Old Fortress). You can see over the three cities of Nuremberg, Fürth, and Erlangen, and across the city forest to Moritzberg in the east. There are 170 steps to the top. 😊
