Time Out at the Gateway to Franconian Switzerland
The private campsite "Auszeit am Tor zur Fränkischen Schweiz" is located on a peaceful farm with grazing livestock near Pegnitz, at the edge of the Fichtelgebirge. Nestled between trees and fields, space for two vehicles is available on an adjacent meadow. The pitch is an excellent starting point for cycling tours and hikes, such as to Pottenstein or into the Veldensteiner Forst. A playground is within a five-minute walk, and Erlangen is approximately 39 kilometers away. You can end your evening by a fire at the fire bowl.1
