Hiking

On this circular hike, you explore the districts north of Lauf. You start in Simonshofen, which, along with Eschenau, is the oldest hop-growing area in the area. You hike between forests, orchards and hop fields to Bullach and Neunhof.

You start at the car park at the sports field, which is on the outskirts of Simonshofen right next to the beautiful Höllweiher. After passing a few carp ponds behind Bullach, you reach the highest point of the tour and enjoy a wonderful view. Afterwards, you can admire two locksmiths in Neunhof and enjoy a regional beer at the Wiethaler brewery and stop off at the adjoining inn.

On the Laufer local hikes, you can take part in a quiz along the way using QR codes.

View of Bullach from Galgenberg

Highlight • Viewpoint

From the bench on the Galgenberg you have a wonderful view of Bullach in the valley. There used to be a miniature gallows here and even earlier, I suspect, there was a real gallows. The mountain must have got its name from somewhere.

Koler Castle, Neunhof

Highlight • Castle

The Koler Castle with its simple facade, the pretty entrance gate and the gables on the roof is beautiful to look at. It was built in 1749. There was already a manor house here before that.

Wiethaler Brewery Inn

Highlight • Restaurant

The Wiethaler brewery in Neunhof, near Lauf an der Pegnitz, can look back on more than 510 years of brewing tradition. To this day, the brewery is one of the most technologically advanced breweries in its size. In order to set the course for a successful future, she relies on quality, commitment and tradition. It is therefore particularly important to the brewers to brew a beer that not only brings pleasure but also fun and joy into the glass.

The hike was absolutely boring, without any highlights, a real "walk along the field" - not recommended
