July 30, 2023,Kalorienweg Hersbruck

Today we went to Hersbruck on the calorie path to burn calories. An approx. 7 km long circular route from the old town of Hersbruck via the Michelsberg. The calories burned up to that point are shown on a sign at 8 stations. How I find a funny idea. However, I didn't find three of the eight signs 🫣🤷‍♂️. If …

If I eat everything that is written on the signs🫣 I have to do the round twice. There were many rustic trees at the height in the area of the quarry. The path is very well signposted, I only somehow missed the first two signs.

August 24, 2021,Hersbruck - Michelsberg - Steinberg

This year’s first holiday tour in the Nürnberger Land! It is a mixture of a stroll through the city of Hersbruck with its beautiful old town and a mountain hike. The start is at the large Plärrer car park. The river Pegnitz flows right next to it, where "Art in the River" can currently be seen. Art installations by various …

On the last km we changed a bit and left the 8 because we preferred to walk through the meadows to the car than through the city.

April 3, 2025,Hersbruck und die erfolglose Salamandersuche

The deviations from the path at the end of the loop can be skipped 🤣... I was hoping to find salamanders by the stream. Unfortunately, it was too dry.
Free parking is available at the Plärrer in Hersbruck.

No.7 from Pavel's book.
We have moved the starting point behind the Christmas market. Overall an interesting round with Teufelsgraben, quarry and Michelsberg. The level crossing and the path in the park were closed and had to be bypassed. Finally, the city center of Hersbruck with mulled wine. Great sunny weather in powder snow.

May 15, 2022,Hersbrucker Kalorienweg, leicht abgewandelt

We walked the calorie path as far as possible, but we got in the middle of it. The starting point would actually have been in Großviehbergstraße. A great round with great views of Hersbruck and Nuremberg.

June 11, 2022,Mit 9 € durch den Monat: Hersbruck, der Kalorienweg

For today I had chosen the template from S+S, and thus my first tour in Franconia, apart from the Altdorfer Dünenweg. And since it seemed to be getting warm, I still had a little challenge, away from the trains, I walked the loop comfortably in flip-flops 🤦😂.
Long story short, it went great and my pedometer ended up saying over …
