Kleinreh Mill

Highlight • Mountain Hut

Great stop for hikers. The smoked fish (also to take away) are a poem. There is also coffee, cake and snacks. As a Mühlenweg hiker you have to plan in advance!

Paper Mill (Frankenwald Nature Park)

Highlight • Structure

Both buildings are privately owned. There used to be a restaurant here. Old signposts and markings bear witness to a long tradition as a hiking area. Now it has become quiet in the valley.

October 31, 2022,Mühlenweg - Quellbäche der Steinach im Frankenwald

I don't know how long the Mühlenweg has been a marked hiking trail in the Franconian Forest. I don't know who came up with the good idea of creating and marking this path like this.

All I know is that I discovered him rather late. Since then I've been a fan and have walked it several times (also in winter …

Nice route, but I had forgotten my machete 😄 (see photos). Some of the trails are badly overgrown. "Jungle" lovers are in good hands on this route. But in return you get peace and quiet and pure idyll. 😉✌️

Very nice path that you absolutely have to walk.
We started the tour in Buckenreuth and walked around to the left.
We were there for 7 hours 30 minutes. There is a lot to see and enjoy. Too bad to just run through nature. There are really enough benches where you can let nature work its magic on you and …

Great hike with 12 mills that are beautifully maintained. Park and start at the Kleinrehmühle followed by a snack...char and trout.

The Steinach Valley and its tributaries were once home to 11 mills and a hammer mill. The information panels tell the history of the valley and its mills.

We started at the small hiking parking lot in Buckenreuth. 🅿️
The Mill Trail ⚙️ is relatively well signposted. However, due to tree felling and cleanup work, some of the paths here …
