The Deichselbach, which rises from several sources here, leaves behind a staircase made of tufa, which reaches about 20m into the valley. It is particularly worth coming here if there have been rainy days before.

Almadler Hut

Highlight • Mountain Hut

A cozy hut, completely without commercial: You may, no you should bring your own snack - in the hut's only drinks.

View from the Dragonerspitz

Highlight • Viewpoint

The lime kiln has nothing to do with the Dragoon Spitz. In this case, it is a "cauldron" below the hiking trail above. Here you can climb and you will find the prayer flag.

The first scenes of the TV feature film HINDENBURG were shot on this plateau (2011).
Along the panoramic circular route you have a unique view of the Regnitz valley between Forchheim and Bamberg. When the weather is nice, the view extends far into Franconian Switzerland, the Steigerwald, the Obermaintal and even the Rhön.
In addition, columbine, pasque flower, flax and orchid bloom in spring and rare butterflies can be observed while hiking.
In addition, when the weather is good, you can watch the glider pilots taking off and landing.

April 2, 2023,🥾 Sinter-Terrassen und Friesener Warte
On the spur of the moment, we started at noon in Tiefenhöhestadt to the sinter terraces, which were really worth seeing 🤩. With the rains of the last few days, we could not have chosen a better time for this hike. The only downside was that some paths were very slippery and we only made slow progress as a result. …

Due to the positive prospects of the weather report for some sunshine ☀ in the afternoon, we spontaneously made the decision to explore the first foothills of Franconian Switzerland.
We started shortly after noon in Tiefenhöhestadt and headed south to the sinter steps, which are well worth seeing. The heavy rains of the last few days made the sight even …
