Good location, right in the city center with very good Franconian food. Further up on Michelsberg is the beer garden. There is also the stamp for the Fünf-Seidla-Steig.

The journey begins at Weißenohe train station. After a starting picture, a brisk march towards Weißenohe follows, where the first well-deserved refreshment🍺 awaits. Freshly refreshed, the steep climb to the second stage, located on the lofty heights of Gräfenberg. A cheese platter, white sausages, and sausage-filled bread satisfy the initial hunger.

5 x 0.5 liters of beer = 5 Seidla were the motivation for today's tour on the 5-Seidla-Steig with a planned distance of approx. 17 km. We managed 4 different types, i.e. beer from Elch-Bräu, from the breweries Hofmann and Friedmann and from the monastery brewery Weißenohe.
Unfortunately, Linden-Bräu was closed on Sunday. We still got the legendary 5-Seidla-Krug for …
