Summit cross on the Schellenberg

Highlight • Viewpoint

The Schellenberg is an exposed mountain spur in the Franconian Jura above the village of Kinding. People have been using this sheltered and easily accessible location since the Neolithic period. The oldest traces of settlement on the mountain date back over 7,000 years. Apart from that, you can enjoy magnificent views of the surrounding landscape today.

Kinding Village Center

Highlight • Settlement

Artful buildings, natural beauty, and technology museums—there's much to discover in Kinding. The most striking building in Kinding itself is the remarkable "Kirchenburg" (Church Fortress), a unique art-historical gem. The numerous castles and ruins, as well as the natural beauty, are best discovered on walks and hikes. Lake Kratzmühl invites you to bathe, swim, row, and sunbathe—along more than two kilometers of shoreline.

May 28, 2023,Kinding – Bergkreuz Schellenberg Runde von Kinding (Altmühltal)

Tour with very difficult terrain. Some of the trails are very narrow, interspersed with rocks and large tree roots, and there is also a lot of downhill. The sliding points can hardly be made for heavy e-bikes despite the pushing aid. Never drive in wet weather. You should be fit for this tour. I cannot recommend this route. M.Z.

Demanding round about Kipfenberg and Kinding.
Section by section only recommended for experienced bikers, the route to Kinding is feasible for everyone, after Kinding up to the plague column can be a challenge for biobikers. The descent is not very demanding, but it should not be underestimated.
The rest of the tour to the Birkenhal is varied with easy-to-drive trails …
