Hike around the Frankenteich

The start and end of this easy but beautiful hike are at the parking lot of the Naturresort Schindelbruch at the foot of the Auerberg. At the beginning, you pass the nature trail and then reach the parking lot at the Auerberg. At the end of the parking lot, a narrow path runs parallel to the road. This is crossed, and after a short stretch through the forest, you turn right to reach a meadow. You then arrive at the Frankenteich; it is best to circle it counterclockwise. At the pond itself, there are beautiful views, ideal for a rest.
