Confluence of the Rednitz and Pegnitz (the Spitz)

Highlight • River

The confluence of the Rednitz and Pegnitz to the Regnitz is also called the river triangle or simply the "Spitz" in the vernacular. It is a very idyllic place both in spring and in summer.

Nice to look at. The Rednitz flows faster than the Pegnitz. Just take a seat, there are no benches, but there are enough other options such as stone blocks etc. and enjoy the natural spectacle.

There are always small biotopes, ponds and other things to look at. The route is really beautiful, easy to walk, and halfway there you can stop for a bite to eat (pizzeria or good Franconian food - but you have to bring your time, because the restaurants in both of them are not the fastest)

From here on, the Rednitz, after it has now absorbed the Pegnitz, is called Regnitz. The point of land to Überplanken certainly has the advantage that you don't have to deal with mud or wild growth. The disadvantage is that the boards, despite the corrugations, quickly turn into a slide as soon as they get wet.

The confluence of the Rednitz and Pegnitz is located in Wiesengrund in Fürth below today's Fürth main cemetery. It can be reached from the old town, or from the east of the city and from the north via the Friedhofsteg over the Pegnitz and from the west of the city, Kapellenruh, via the Käppnersteg over the Rednitz. The "confluence of the Rednitz and Pegnitz" is also simply called the "river triangle" or popularly simply the "Spitz". From here on, the Rednitz, after it has now absorbed the Pegnitz, is then called the Regnitz. The current location of the "Spitz" was created in the first half of the 20th century (presumably between 1910 and 1930) by straightening the Rednitz. Before that, the Rednitz turned sharply to the right after passing the Käppnersteg and joined the Pegnitz west of the Friedhofsteg (Wikipedia).
