Wiesent Valley Cycle Path

Highlight • Cycleway

The very beautiful Wiesenttal, in which only one or two little hills have to be conquered. One tip is to take a break in the Sachsenmühle, which you pass by.

Highlight (Segment) • Gorge

The bicycle and hiking trail along the Wiesent runs away from the road on the south side of the river. It always goes up and down and offers great views of the beautiful valley.

Bing Cave

Highlight • Cave

Discovered by Ignaz Bing in 1905, this cave is definitely worth a visit! Developed into a show cave by its discoverer as early as 1906, it has been considered one of the most beautiful show caves in Germany since its renovation in 2005.

You follow the traces of a dried-up river for almost 300 meters through the mountain, past fantastic stalactite and stalagmite formations. Mighty banks of layered limestone and delicate, crystalline, glittering sinter formations characterize the cave. The temperature down here is around nine degrees Celsius year-round, so be sure to pack a warm sweater!

Opening hours and prices:

Open daily from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., April 1st to November 5th. Admission is €4.50 for adults and €4 for children.

The cave can only be visited as part of a guided tour. Duration: approximately 40 minutes. Tours run continuously, but there may be a waiting time of about 30 minutes.

September 17, 2023,Fränkische Schweiz Tour Ebermannstadt Beringersmühle
Today we took advantage of the dream weather again.
From Ebermannstadt we went into the Wiesental along the old railway line to Beringersmühle.
Return there and back to Ebermannstadt.
Nice tour in Franconian Switzerland.
