FS100 Muggendorf-Waischenfeld

The highlights on this Fränki Swiss 100 stage are closely linked like pearls on a string: over a rocky serpentine path, the route continues on the Frankenweg sometimes through the "Hollow Mountain" – into the Oswaldhöhle. In the dark middle, (for grown-ups;) bending down is necessary. A 7up climb follows shortly after to the "Hohe Kreuz" with the 12-meter-high wooden observation tower. Steeply downhill, the route winds further to the gorge forest and again as a 7up climb to the next impressive rock formations: the cave ruin Quackenschloss, the (technically climbable;) rock needle Adlerstein. The idyllic mountain village Engelhardsberg is crossed, and already the next top geotope follows through the cave collapse Riesenburg during the descent. In the valley, the route changes to the other side of the river and follows the Wiesent to Burg Rabeneck. Up to the castle and back down to the Pulvermühle, very well known to literature enthusiasts, and leisurely further in the valley to Waischenfeld.
