The view stretches as far as Forchheim. If you include the beer garden in Adlitz, you'll have twice as much fun 😜

Märchenweiher near Atzelsberg

Highlight • Lake

In the forest there are several ponds. Lovingly, the ponds are called by the Erlangern "Swan Lake" or fairy tale pond. A very nice area to forget the stress of everyday life and relax.

March 24, 2024,Wanderung: Runde von Marloffstein

The March hike with the hiking group starts at the water tower in Marloffstein, where there is a hiking parking lot.
We walk to the fairytale pond through a beautiful forest, wood anemones are blooming on the edge and the sloes have already budded.
It was a lovely hike past castles and springs.
The weather was also better than reported. …

August 31, 2023,Wandern in der Fränkischen Schweiz: Panoramatour "Bubenreuth - Adlitz - Atzelsberg" (31.08.2023)

I did this tour for the first time in 2017 and have been enthusiastic about this very varied hike ever since. A special treat is the section from Rathsberg to Marloffstein, which offers great views into the distance - the view extends from Forchheim via the Vexier Chapel and Feuerstein Castle to Walberla.

Of course, it felt like all of Nuremberg, Fürth and Erlangen pulled us out today and after the queue at the Atzelsberg beer garden was huge, we tried it in Adlitz. The beer garden was beautifully situated in the sun - but unfortunately it was closed. In Marloffstein we could only have sat down, and on the way back the …
