Maps and trails
Ornbau is a small town in Bavaria, Germany and a wonderful destination for anyone seeking peace and quiet. The town is located on the edge of the Altmühltal Nature Park and thus offers a breathtaking landscape to discover.

Tourist attractions include Ornbau Castle from the 16th century or the historic market square with its half-timbered houses. Cultural highlights such as the annual town festival or concerts in the castle courtyard also attract many visitors.

Culinary Ornbau also has a lot to offer: From traditional Bavarian dishes to international cuisine, you can find everything your heart desires.

The best outdoor activities can be experienced especially in the summer months: Hiking through the Altmühltal Nature Park or cycling tours along the river are just a few possibilities. In winter, on the other hand, a trip to the nearby Feuerberg skiing area is a good idea.

Even if the weather is bad, there are plenty of alternatives in Ornbau: The "Altes Spital" museum shows interesting exhibits on the history of the region and cinema evenings in the local cinema promise entertainment for young and old.

But it is still most beautiful situated directly on the water - a walk along the shore of Burgstallsee or Brombachsee is particularly recommended here.

In summary, it can be said that Ornbau is definitely worth a trip. Whether as a day trip or for a longer stay - the Travel Guide will certainly have one or two highlights in store.

    Landschaftlich zum Ende hin immer toller werdend. Die km Angabe und die Höhenmeter stimmen nicht, sind beides mehr, da die Tour nicht genau am Radweg entlang führt!!
