June 19, 2025, Lauf a.d.Pegnitz - Reichswald - Oedenberg - Burgenstrasse

Today we started at the Pegnitzwiese in Lauf. The tour started at the Heldenwiese, but we couldn't find it at first; our cell phone was in the trunk🙈. Well, to start with, we headed to the Sebalder Reichswald. A multitude of beautiful, shady paths. In Oedenberg, with its beautiful castle, which now houses a restaurant, we noticed the Weiße Ross (White Horse) with its wonderful beer garden. But first, we continued through hop fields and cherry orchards😋. So many wonderful views of the Franconian Alb 🙂! Highlights. Then my husband had a steering problem with the motor🫢. Repeatedly, we had to push sections without push assistance. Suddenly, it was all the way to the 🚗 again. Off to the workshop tomorrow! Not my husband, but the e-bike😅 As a reward, we drove to the Weiße Ross (White Horse). 🍻🍺🍰☕️. There was even hot food in the afternoon 😋😋. The tour is highly recommended!👍

A varied up and down. Quiet streets, wide views over the rolling hills between Schnaittach, Eckental, Behringersdorf and Lauf. I would do the route through the Reichswald differently.
