Discover the region

Geographically, Pommelsbrunn lies on the edge of the Franconian Switzerland-Veldenstein Forest Nature Park and thus offers a breathtaking landscape with numerous hiking and cycling trails through forests, valleys and rivers. Hikes to the Houbirg or the Hartenstein castle ruins are particularly recommended.

In addition to outdoor activities, there are also cultural highlights such as the Museum of Industrial Culture or the Church of St. George with its impressive architecture from the 13th century.

Another highlight of Pommelsbrunn are the culinary specialities such as Franconian beer and hearty dishes such as Schäufele or grilled sausages.

For rainy days, there are excursions to nearby Nuremberg, where you can visit museums or take a tour of the historic old town.

It is especially nice in Pommelsbrunn during the summer months, when you can sit outside and enjoy the sunny days. But this region also has its charm in autumn: the colourful leaves add a romantic touch to the landscape.

Pommelsbrunn is definitely worth a trip! A travel guide for this charming little place should not be missing in any collection - here everyone will find something suitable for their taste.

    Es war eine schöne Wanderung! Ein kleiner Wermutstropfen ist die Einkehrmöglichkeit in Lichtenegg, der alte Schlosswirt ist leider dauerhaft geschlossen, es stehen aber Kühlschränke mit Brotzeit und Getränken zur Verfügung…

    Eine besonders abwechslungsreiche, interessante und trotzdem nicht überlaufene Runde, noch dazu sehr gut bewirtschaftet. Wirklich empfehlenswert.

    Herrlich abwechslungsreiche Tour! Wir sind allerdings in Troßalter gestartet, um unterwegs in Heldmannsberg einkehren zu können. Sehr zu empfehlen.

    Schöne Runde mit der die beiden Klettersteige verbunden werden. Ohne App/Smartphone ist die Orientierung schwierig.

    Wohl eine der schönsten und abwechslungsreichsten Touren in der Gegend. Zu jeder Jahreszeit empfehlenswert. Außerdem perfekt mit den öffentlichen Verkehrsmitteln erreichbar und im Sommer gibt es am Start/Endpunkt auch die Möglichkeit an der Kneipanlage Wasser aufzufüllen. An schönen Wochenenden ist man an der Aussicht zum Harpurger Stausee allerdings nie alleine.

    Schöne Tour. Gerade, wenn es warm ist ideal, weil man die ganze Zeit im Wald unterwegs ist. Der Steig ist im Bereich der Miitelbergwand C. B ist definitiv zu leicht bewertet. Zudem sind 1-2 Kletterstellen bis UIAA II dabei. Die roten Punkte sind meistens verblasst. Die vielen kleinen grünen Schildchen sind oftmals schwer zu entdecken. Von daher hat man eine Schnitzeljagd mit Klettereinlagen zu meistern.

    Eine schöne Tour. Habe sie auch an der Beringermühle begonnen und sie inder anderen Richtung gewandert. Das hat den Vorteil das man de kleineren Anstieg zum Schluss macht.

    🙋 Hallo Helmuth , eine sehr schöne Wanderung , die auch für nicht so geübte Wanderer machbar und gut abkürzbar ist . Wanderfreunde ⚠️ die Brutzeit der Kolkraben beachten . Eine Bitte hätte ich noch  überprüfe mal das  Bild 12 und Bild 7 🤔 und machs gut weiterhin. Bilder ( außer Kolkrabe ) sind von 2023
