Pegnitz Valley East Nature Reserve

Highlight • Natural

Nuremberg is full of green oases and since December 2018 parts of the Pegnitz have been designated as the Pegnitztal Ost nature reserve. Stroll along the Pegnitz, have a picnic in the shade of the huge trees - as a city dweller you don't have to go far to get into the countryside.

Ruins of Oberbürg Castle

Highlight • Castle

In the Pegnitztal Ost recreation area, you can visit the Oberbürg castle ruins. “Oberbürg Castle through the ages” - the history of the walls from their construction to destruction to the present day is shown on the station board. In modern times the Oberbürg was considered one of the most magnificent mansions in Nuremberg and was destroyed in an air raid in 1943.

If you don't just want to cycle through beautiful nature, but also want to learn something about the Pegnitztal biotope, you should plan a drinking break or a longer rest here.
Fantastically beautiful with interesting information boards.
