Camping at the Straussen-/Lebenshof
A pitch in the middle of an ostrich and working farm, right next to the enclosures. The chickens start cackling in the morning. If that's not your cup of tea, you'd better keep looking. There are washbasins and toilets, nothing beyond that in terms of facilities. Quiet hours are from twelve to four p.m.; check-in is only possible after that. The Main-Donau-Kanal is one kilometer away, with cycling paths leading on towards the Altmühltal. Freystadt is five kilometers away, and there's a free public pool there in summer. The farm is closed from November to March.1
What VanSite writes
„Parking space in the middle of the Strauße/Lebenshof farm. The space is approximately 5 km away from the A9 motorway. Take the Allersberg exit (coming from the north) or Hilpoltstein (coming from the south). The parking space is directly next to the animals.“

Sights in the area1
Prunn Castle
The castle clings to a rocky spur above the Altmühl valley, visible from the road below. Getting up there and walking the great hall and chapel fills half a day.
Kratzmühlsee
A lake in the Altmühl valley, left behind by gravel digging, with a shallow shore and a path around it. The place for hot afternoons when the pool gets crowded.
Nuremberg
About 34 kilometres away, with the imperial castle above the old town roofs. The Germanisches Nationalmuseum fills a rainy day easily.
Dietfurt
A small town on the Main-Danube Canal, known for its Chinese carnival. From the canal cycle path, a fitting stop halfway along.
