Dreiländereck Middle Franconia–Swabia–Upper Bavaria Monument

Highlight • Monument

Beautiful place in a significant place. Beautifully designed place where Middle Franconia, Swabia and Upper Bavaria meet. A seating group and benches invite you to linger. A plaque on the stele, created by Steinmetz Rupert Fieger in 2012/2013, provides information about the triangle.

Gailach Spring

Highlight • River

The Gailach, also called Mörnsheimer Bach, actually rises near Monheim, but seeps away below Warching in a retention basin in sinkholes and only emerges after about four kilometers underground at Mühlheim. The discharge is 600 to 700 liters per second, the stream is immediately several meters wide. The source is one of the strongest in Bavaria.

Gailach Valley

Highlight • Gorge

Side valley of the Altmühltal with the river Gailach, which flows in Altendorf into the Altmühl. The romantic Gailachtal is in no way inferior to the Altmühltal. Places on the Gailach on their constant run below the Gailachquelle are Mühlheim, Mörnsheim and Altendorf.
The Gailachtal, which is lined by species-rich dry grasslands, is considered to be scenically attractive; the Gailach winds meandering through the meadows. Because of their near-natural state, the dipper, which has rarely become common in Bavaria, can swim, dive and run along the stream bottom. Shortly before its mouth lies on the northern side of the valley, the "Grafsloch", a rock formation with a 70,000 years ago man-made cave. After the stalactite approaches on her ceiling she is also called "Steinerner Rosenkranz". North of the Gailach estuary lies over the rocky outcrops of the Altmühltal the extensive "juniper garden" with man-high juniper bushes.
In Mörnsheim the Altmühltal Panoramaweg crosses the valley. Before you get past the castle Mörnsheim.

View of the Dohlenfelsen Hagenacker

Highlight • Natural Monument

Dohlenfelsen Hagenacker, must not be climbed, as many jackdaws have their nests in small rock holes and niches. The female incubates her eggs here, and the nestlings are then fed by both parents. There is often a lot going on in the little town of Hagenacker....
