Description

The "Leo-Jobst-Weg" traverses the iconic region of Fränkische Schweiz in Germany from Pegnitz to Forchheim, from East to West. Named after one of the pioneers of waymarking and developing in this area, this pathway largely follows the Wiesent valley, largely avoiding significant elevation gains and losses. It passes several iconic and beautiful areas of the Fränkische Schweiz, such as Pottenstein, Tüchersfeld, Neideck castle and the Vexier chapel.
