Very beautiful, idyllically situated side valley of the Altmühl valley. The Gailach valley is accessible from its mouth to its source near Monheim via a cycle or hiking path.

Monheim's elongated market square reveals that the important trade route between Nuremberg and Augsburg once ran through here. The square is framed by historic city gates, which were built around 1340 along with the city wall. The carefully restored buildings of the old town recall a time when Monheim boasted numerous inns, horse-changing stations, and breweries. The town hall is also among the most striking buildings in the town center.

Approximately 120 steps lead to the top... and offer a great view over Wemding at the very top.
