Café Inselblick on the Pegnitz

Highlight • Cafe

Absolutely take a look. Located directly on the Pegnitz, the Café Inselblick offers the ideal resting and refreshments on cycling and hiking tours. On the small terrace, directly above the Pegnitz, hot and cold drinks, lovingly cooked dishes and very delicious, homemade cakes are served. The bridge is followed by a beer garden (self-service), where you can also eat brought food. If you are traveling by e-bike, you can look forward to several battery charging stations directly at the café.

Happurg Quarry Lake North Shore

Highlight • Lake

The quarry pond invites you to swim and swim on hot days in summer. On the shore of the lake you can either spread your towel on one of the large lawns or look for a quieter spot on the opposite bank, which is lined by trees that provide shade.

So that you can simply jump into the cool water, there are jetties all over the lake that make it easier for you to access the water. But there is also a shallow water area for those who just want to get their feet wet.

Public toilets and a kiosk, where you can get delicious snacks, provide amenities at the bathing lake.

Weir and rest area in Alfalter on the Pegnitz River

Highlight • River

The right place for a break. Directly on the Pegnitz is the apartment house Pegnitzmühle, formerly old mill. The "special buildings" appearing in older descriptions, a mill and a brewery, no longer exist. Historic mill meets modern design! Historic ambience and modern design form a symbiosis of this extraordinary property. The Mühlenhof, which dates back to 1836, was completely refurbished in 1996.
