In the forest there are several ponds. Lovingly, the ponds are called by the Erlangern "Swan Lake" or fairy tale pond. A very nice area to forget the stress of everyday life and relax.

View of Franconian Switzerland

Highlight • Viewpoint

The view stretches as far as Forchheim. If you include the beer garden in Adlitz, you'll have twice as much fun 😜
