Märchenweiher near Atzelsberg

Highlight • Lake

In the forest there are several ponds. Lovingly, the ponds are called by the Erlangern "Swan Lake" or fairy tale pond. A very nice area to forget the stress of everyday life and relax.

Bikepark is probably an exaggeration of the title, but in the north of the Meilwald you will find countless trail variants with all levels of difficulty for filing on the technique or just having fun.

September 1, 2021,MTB-Tour über den Meilwald nach Hetzles auf den Berg 🗻 hoch und zurück 01.09.2021

It started early in the morning with fog. First we drove through the Meilwald along from Rathsberg to Atzelsberger Quelle. From there we moved through many small villages to Hetzles. There we conquered the monster slope to the Hetzleser Berg. Over a steep descent (partly 26%) from this we went back towards Erlangen.

However, the pressure was low again at home.

I took out the valve insert and, lo and behold, it was quite caked with gunk. I hope the new one holds up. 🍀
