Very informative and consistently well signposted with a black 1 on a white circle.

Very nice and well signposted circular hiking trail. It should be relatively dry when you do this lap. Definitely a great hike for the summer when it's really warm. 😁

This is a little gem among the Franconian valley hikes. The path was blocked for a long time by the owners of the Thalmühle, but an agreement was finally reached, fortunately.
