A beautiful, slightly gravelly, but easily passable path leads from Mechelwind to Oberlindach through the Pfaffenweiher.

Herzogenaurach is also very worth seeing. They've done a lot for hikers, cyclists and visitors in recent years.

A very beautiful spot in the middle of the forest. The shelter with its bench is lovingly decorated. You can write in a little book if you want to. It's also very quiet here. Great.
