    Leichter Anstieg, aber nicht zu anstrengend. Bin mit dem MTB hoch, war kein Problem. Die Aussicht war sehr gut, da man sehr sehr weit schauen kann, wenn das Wetter mit spielt. Im Sommer konnte ich den Kanal wegen der Flora nicht sehen, ansonsten aber viele schöne Spots von Nürnberg und startende/landende Flugzeuge.

    Ein perfekter Ort, um Tee zu trinken, nachzudenken und die Umgebung zu beobachten.
