Blauer Brunnen Spring

Highlight • Natural Monument

The Blaubrunnen with its crystal clear water is a historic fountain that was already used in the Middle Ages. Even though the water appears very pure, it is not suitable for drinking, but only for cooling down.

Brunneck Castle Ruins

Highlight • Castle

Built at the end of the 14th century by the Lords of Heideck, only two remains of the walls remain, which were made accessible again in 2017 after renovation. Beautiful view of Erlingshofen.

Gutmann Brewpub at Titting Castle

Highlight • Restaurant

Very nice atmosphere in a very well-kept environment. Great old buildings and beautiful gardens. And of course the beer is absolutely amazing. You can get it next door in the brewery. ;-)

Does anyone actually know why it can be that you walk 100 meters more downhill than uphill on a circular route???

Today I went hiking again in the Altmühltal Nature Park, starting in Titting.

The Knights and Romans Trail is one of the loop trails on the Altmühltal Panorama Trail and is my first of these loops.

After crossing Titting past the chapel, church and castle, the path goes up the juniper heath on a narrow, steep path, from where there …

With the rain ☔️ this morning we had to dig deep into the motivation box. Wrapped up waterproof, we really set off on the Knights' and Romans' Path in the Altmühltal.
Passing the Brunneck castle ruins and over the Roman Limes wall, we were even rewarded with a little bit of sun 🌞.

Once a month we go on tour with a small but fine group of former and active colleagues. Today it was that time again...
Actually, today it was supposed to be a full moon winter night hike, but due to a lack of snow and considering the sunny weather, we headed south for an hour - towards the sun 🔆.

I started the ATP loop no. 17 right in the center of Titting. I'm a fox and had chosen the direction of travel so that the sun wouldn't shine in my face later.
First I went up to the "Tittinger Höhe" with its expansive plateau character. I avoided the original asphalt and road path directly through Erkertshofen and instead crossed …

Romans and knights, why is that? That's the name of the circular route that we walked with some deviations. Romans, because part of the way runs along the Limesweg, knights, because there was a castle ruin to admire. And otherwise? Beautiful, very varied through forests, past wild meadows, grain fields and through villages. However, at temperatures around 30 degrees also …
