October 12, 2024,Oedenberg | Günthersbühl | Neunhof | Kulinarische Schlössertour

Today we headed towards Günthersbühl via Oedenberg and Tauchersreuth and Nuschelberg! This time it was a very "culinary" hike with a stop at Oedenberg Castle and the Wiethaler Brewery - both absolutely worth a visit. The trail was very easy to hike and is actually super easy to do.

Today I chose the west loop of Ödenberg. This is also a hike from the Nuremberg region in conjunction with the VGN. There are plenty of places to stop for refreshments and a few castles. You always have a great panoramic view.

The first hike this year with the hiking group starts at the castle in Odenberg.
In wonderful hiking weather, the tour takes us to Tauchersreuth, past the water tower to Beerbach; a detour to the St. Egidien church is worthwhile.
We continue with great views and many paths to Neunhof, past the Wiethler brewery towards Nuschelberg; we stopped off at …

The first tour this year with our hiking group takes us on a large circuit through the villages of Oedenberg, Tauchersreuth (beautiful view from the former ski lift down to Eschenau), Beerbach (beautiful old fortified church), Neunhof, Nuschelberg, and Günthersbühl. Castles AND inns everywhere - so something for everyone!

December 27, 2025,Rundweg von Tauchersreuth über Neunhof, Nuschelberg, Günthersbühl

We chose this route after the dreary, gray weather because it's mostly sunny, although the forest path has its charms too. You pass through several villages with excellent restaurants, some of which are housed in very old buildings.

April 13, 2026,Nürnberger Land: Kulinarische Schlössertour (Westschlaufe)

The second part of the tour, the so-called Westschlaufe (western loop), starts in the already familiar Neunhof and leads back to Nuschelberg. If you do both routes together, you could save yourself this section of the path.

From Nuschelberg, a beautiful path leads downhill through the forest, past a small pond and some narrow streams, and back uphill to Güntersbühl …
