Reconstructed Roman Limes Watchtower (wooden tower) – Naturpark Altmühltal

Highlight • Historical Site

In the middle of the forest you will find a reconstructed Roman watchtower, because the Limes ran here around 2,000 years ago. However, the watchtower only resembles its Roman model in appearance - the Romans built much more sophisticated buildings. The tower is open for this and from its viewing platform you have a beautiful view of the Altmühltal.

View of the Altmühl Valley from the Arnsberger Leite

Highlight • Viewpoint

The Arnsberger Leite is one of the most exciting and impressive rock formations in the entire Altmühltal. The Altmühltal Panoramaweg leads directly above the rocks and offers dramatic views down to the river.

Katzental Valley

Highlight • Gorge

Des Katzental is a dry valley. Dry valleys are valleys created by the erosion of water that only have flowing water temporarily or no longer at all.
Generally a very beautiful and quiet valley. The "East Bavarian Way of St. James" also leads through the Katzental.
In winter, popular, through the cross-country ski trail and a small toboggan hill.

July 22, 2023,Große Wandersteig Tour

The hiking trails are very narrow. Advanced driving technique is required

October 12, 2023,Kipfenberg - Kressensteig (12.10.23)

The Kresensteig should not be underestimated. The upper part is easy to drive.

However, later there is a risk of falling and difficulty S2.

Controlled, safe biking is absolutely important here

May 12, 2024,Trialstrecke – Kipfenberg - Römischer Wachtturm Runde von Biberg

Today, in typical Bavarian weather, the sky was white and blue, and a Kipfenberg circuit was planned.

There were minor problems with the altitude, as it was supposed to be 850 meters.

The trails were great, finally no wet roots. I had expected more hikers on the trails but there were only 2 groups, lucky me. 😀

Altmühltal is so awesome 😜 started in Biberg.
The elevation profile looks like there are a few teeth missing from the sawblade. 😬👍👋
