Limmersdorf Dancing Linden

Highlight • Natural Monument

The detour to Limmersdorf is not only worthwhile because of the Tanzlinde. The region is known for its dancing linden trees. I think this is particularly great, especially since you can climb it.

Plassenburg Castle and Kulmbach Adventure Park

Highlight • Castle

An adventure park (very large playground) for children in the middle of the city - that's quite unusual. And the Plassenburg towers high above.

February 24, 2022,Durchs Rotmaintal 🚴🏻‍♂️

Last reasonably nice day before the next low, so today we went on the bike again.

From Thurnau comfortably, sometimes with, sometimes against the wind through the Rotmaintal to the Steinernen Radl near Neudrossenfeld, backwards from Melkendorf via the Bahntrassenradweg back.

It's great that the Rotmaintal is again passable everywhere after the last floods.
