Nürnberg
3 h
35 km
Not only Nuremberg itself is beautiful. It is also worth leaving the city and exploring the magical landscape in which it is embedded. Here, water has left its mark everywhere - whether in the form of rocks that emerged from the sand at the bottom of an inland sea hundreds of millions of years ago or as a spring that has attracted people for centuries. Travel through lakes, forests and gorges and learn about life in a medieval industrial settlement on the banks of the Pegnitz.
