Kuchenmühle in the Aufseß Valley

Highlight • Restaurant

Here you will find delicious German cuisine, seasonal and freshly prepared. And - of course - regional beers. On request, you can even get the cozy bed storage here. In the summer time the cake mill is open daily from 11.30 o'clock, except on Mondays, then is rest day.

Wiesent Valley

Highlight • Gorge

After the descent from Pottenstein you drive a great route along the museum railway and the Wiesent along the valley, an almost flat route.

The beautiful Wiesent Trail

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

This beautiful path runs parallel to the Wiesent river, the railway line and the federal road B470. Of all the options, it is the best option for hiking and cycling. Its varied route is fun anyway. :)

August 13, 2023,🚵🚵‍♂️ rund ums Wiesenttal - Fränkische 🇨🇭 Teil 2
After the rain yesterday, the otherwise beautiful trails were quite slippery and there were also many broken branches and whole trees on the paths. It was often called descending.

From the campsite on the Jurahöhe in Kleinlesau we went through the Aufseß valley in the direction of Streitberg. After a detour to the Streitburg, from where you have a magnificent view of the Wiesent valley and the Neideck castle ruins opposite, we went to Muggendorf on the Wiesent.
