Unfortunately, the saved map didn't work, and we got lost, so we went all over the place... otherwise, it was very nice! The kid liked it, though. She said it was exciting. 🤩

Varied tour with different ground conditions, sometimes difficult sections and good surefootedness required. Can be done with 🐶, not suitable for strollers. The Wildenfels castle ruins and the view towards the Nuremberg region and Hersbruck Switzerland are worth seeing
