Maps and trails
Geographically, Weilersbach is surrounded by rolling hills and has numerous hiking and cycling trails to offer. The landscape is characterised by the many forests, which are perfect for a walk or picnic. For nature lovers, a visit to the caves near Tiefenellern is an absolute must!

But there is also plenty to discover culturally in Weilersbach. A highlight is Thurnau Castle with its baroque garden as well as the museum for music automatons. The 17th-century St. Anna Chapel is also worth a visit due to its historical significance as a place of pilgrimage.

For those who like to sample culinary delights, be sure to try the local wine or beer - both are known for their quality and are traditionally produced.

For outdoor activities such as hiking, mountain biking or climbing, spring and summer are especially ideal. In winter, on the other hand, you can go skiing or ice skating on the nearby lake.

If the weather doesn't cooperate, you can take a trip to the Hundshaupten Wildlife Park or go to the indoor swimming pool in Ebermannstadt.

Wherever you want to spend your time - Weilersbach is definitely worth a trip! With this Travel Guide we have given you some tips to get the most out of your visit.

    Schöne Runde, die Schotter Passagen im letzten drittel der Tour sind mit einem Trekkingrad nicht zu empfehlen u. kaum zu schaffen, da der Schotter schon sehr grob ist eher was für Fully oder Montainbike mit dicken Reifen. Besser die Runde in gegengesetzter Richtung fahren dann sind die Steigungen nicht sooo spürbar. Alles in allem wunderschöne Runde.
