October 19, 2023,12 Apostel und Teufelskanzel

The Kneipp Association was out near Solnhofen today with 20 people in light rainy weather. Despite the bad weather, the mood in the group was good on this short hike.
Lunch at the 13.Apostel restaurant in Eßlingen was good, the homemade cakes were excellent. On the way back over the Teufelskanzel, full concentration was required again on the wet meadow …

Wonderful tour on this and the other side of the Altmühl from the Solnhofen train station. Paths and paths through the unspoilt forest alternate with ascents over mountain meadows, a flat section through the Altmühltal, beaten paths above the Apostel and finally a descent through the village. There are always fantastic views of the valley, from or onto the Apostles …

Yesterday rain, today beautiful weather. That's why I used the rest day of our Almühltal bike tour for a hike. It was worth it! The circular route from Solnhofen to the Teufelskanzel and then to the opposite side of the valley to the rock formations of the 12 apostles is not far, not difficult and offers great nature experiences and …
