It's just interesting to watch the canoeists training here.

Beautiful route along the canal

Hainberg is always worth a walk. Beautiful paths, suitable for all ages. Joggers, Nordic walkers, strollers, and cyclists. Something for everyone👍

Nice alternative to the road. Short gravel sections, but they are easy to ride. Good connection between Rothenburger Str. and the canal.

Beautiful stretch along the water in the green, flat and tarred.

Cozy path on the Rednitz

Wallenstein left Prague on June 4, 1632. On the way to Neustadt an der Waldnaab he united with the Electoral Bavarian army, reached what is now the city limits of Fürth on July 17th and left in the area of today's nature reserve at Hainberg and the district towns of Zirndorf, Oberasbach and Stein (there to the district of Unterweihersbuch). build a huge warehouse. The 16 kilometer fortress landscape with forts, redoubts and battery positions that Wallenstein had built was enormous: around 13,000 trees were felled for around 40,000 poles and 24,000 crossbars, earth huts (for the infantry) and wooden houses (for the cavalry) were built, and huge amounts of earth were piled up for the entrenchments.[2] 31,000 infantrymen, 12,000 horsemen and an entourage of unknown size, but in total around 60,000 people and (initially) 15,000 horses, camped there for 70 days. This was the largest military camp in world history.[3][4] Wallenstein realized that, despite his numerical superiority, it was not advisable to attack Gustavus Adolf in his “fortifications” around Nuremberg. However, he managed to create a blockade ring around Gustav Adolf's army, so that it ran into supply difficulties. The previously undefeated king was detained for six weeks and condemned to inaction.

The Main-Danube Canal (MDK) is an approximately 171-kilometer-long federal waterway[3] in Bavaria that connects the Main near Bamberg with the Danube near Kelheim. The canal was built between 1960 and 1992. It created a continuous mega-ship route (called the European Canal) between the North Sea near Rotterdam and the Black Sea near Constanța (Romania), which runs over the Rhine, Main and Danube. That is why the canal is also known as the Rhine-Main-Danube Canal (RMD Canal). At the time of planning and construction, the name Rhine-Main-Danube shipping route was also common.[4] Regionally, it is often simply called the New Canal to distinguish it from its predecessor, the Ludwig-Donau-Main Canal. The 17 kilometer long summit, which crosses the Franconian Alb low mountain range as the main European watershed between the Rhine and the Danube, is 406 m above sea level. NHN the highest point of the European waterway network. The RMD Canal is steadily losing importance as a freight transport route (especially for container transport), but it is increasingly attracting tourists and river cruises.[5][6] The canal channel, together with the Franconian Lake District, is also part of the Danube-Main transition, which supplies the Regnitz and Main systems, which are threatened by temporary drought, with water from the Danube and Altmühl.
