The climb from Ebermannstadt is quite a challenge. In town, it starts off straight up, then continues in switchbacks, sometimes with gradients up to 14%, if you can trust the signs. Up on the plateau, there are a few more meters of elevation gain to the airport, which are quite painful.

The Dachsbach stream is first documented in 1129 – a knight named Heinrich von Dahspach sold one of his properties to the St. Michael's Monastery in Bamberg for 80 silver marks. The place name derives from a watercourse of the same name, the prefix of which may be dahs (Middle High German for "dachs"). Accordingly, it could have referred to a stream where badgers are found.[7] The town's coat of arms also refers to this meaning.
