Büchenhüll Mammoth Cave

Highlight • Cave

The Mammoth Cave in Buchenhüll is very impressive. If you approach the grid very slowly, you will feel the temperature change. Once we were lucky and the cave was open. That was a completely different look into the past.

Roman Fort Castra Vetoniana (Pfünz)

Highlight • Historical Site

The partially rebuilt Roman fort is freely accessible in summer. In winter you have to forego a tour of the reconstructed parts, but you can still visit the outside area. …

Roman fort in Naturpark Altmühltal

Highlight • Historical Site

It's very interesting what a clever network of roads the Romans already had back then.

May 31, 2025,Altmühltalwanderung..Schlaufenweg 15 Walting

I've driven to many highlights in the Altmühl Valley in the past, but in terms of hiking, they were still blank spots in my biography, like the Roman fort and the medieval bridge in Pfünz. Since high temperatures were expected today and Hugo🌞 was supposed to be hitting the ground running, this tour was ideal, as it included a lot …

February 27, 2026,Naturpark Altmühltal: Von Walting zum Kastell Vetoniana

While the sun struggled to break through yesterday, today it shone in all its glory, and I once again set out on one of the loop trails in the Altmühl Valley.

Starting from Walting, the trail first led along the Altmühl River and a small tributary before climbing out of the valley and onto the plateau.

June 11, 2023,Walting - Altmühltal Schlaufe 15

The first time I used Park4Night to find out about parking options in advance. With a length of almost 6.40 m, the 🍋 doesn't fit in every parking lot.
Nice corner right on the Altmühl. When I arrived, there was a mobile home in addition to a horse trailer, the N8 had apparently spent there.
It was not surprising that …

May 7, 2024,Altmühltal Panoramaweg Schlaufe 15 - Walting Pfünz

After recently going on a short, stripped-down walk with my holiday visitor, today I wanted to do the full APW loop between Walting and Pfünz. The loop runs over the wooded slopes of the Altmühl valley on both sides of the Altmühl. I was hoping for beautiful views of the Altmühl valley and quiet, secluded forest areas, and I got …

05/14/23 - day of hiking!
It's supposed to be a special tour...hmm, we've never been on the loop 15...why?!

Check out this collection at komoot - I think you might like it. "Loop paths on the Altmühltaler Panoramaweg" komoot.de/collection/1782868/-schlaufenwege-am-altmuehltaler-panoramaweg

Let's go to Walting, where I read Affental (ah, well known) and Wildscheinsteig....hoioioi...that sounds kind of steep. When entering we see …
