Hiking

The hiking trail above the Apostles is particularly beautiful. From every rock there is a different view in both directions, in between the precious grasslands and meadows with countless rare butterflies and grasshoppers. Feel free to use a good book or an app to identify species.

Hiking

One of the scenic highlights in the Altmühltal Nature Park is the rock group of the Twelve Apostles. The mighty towering dolomite rocks between Solnhofen and Eßlingen greet boaters on the Altmühl, cyclists on the Altmühltal cycle path and hikers on their tours around Solnhofen.
