Frankendorf - Half-Timbered Village

Highlight • Settlement

Absolutely worth seeing: The place was in the national competition "our village should be beautiful" not in vain for gold village. Here you can marvel at 31 listed old, half-timbered half-timbered farmhouses and a former mill. In the inn also located here, there are good home cooking.

View from the Dragonerspitz

Highlight • Viewpoint

The lime kiln has nothing to do with the Dragoon Spitz. In this case, it is a "cauldron" below the hiking trail above. Here you can climb and you will find the prayer flag.

Way of the Cross and Crucifixion Group

Highlight (Segment) • Religious Site

Partly strenuous tour that also requires some technique, but then waits with beautifully carved and well-preserved figures. Absolute hiking highlight that requires good footwear

The Deichselbach, which rises from several sources here, leaves behind a staircase made of tufa, which reaches about 20m into the valley. It is particularly worth coming here if there have been rainy days before.
