Sulzdorf an der Lederhecke

Wide-ranging views, paths by the lake and historic landmarks give Sulzdorf an der Lederhecke its varied character. The 38-metre-high Bayernturm in Zimmerau is located in Haßberge Nature Park. In suitable weather, the view stretches far across the former border region into Thuringia, over the Haßberge and Grabfeld as far as the Rhön, the Thuringian Forest and the Fichtel Mountains. This makes both landscape and nature and cultural discoveries worthwhile themes to consider when planning your trip.

Reuthsee: Lakeside paths and archaeological traces

Reuthsee is one of the few natural lakes in Lower Franconia. Hiking and walking paths around the lake invite you to relax. The woods around the lake also contribute to its distinctive character: a total of eight Celtic burial mounds lie to the north and south of Reuthsee. Those interested in both landscape and archaeology will find each as a subject in its own right here. The burial mounds add a cultural-historical perspective to the view of the lake.

In the wider destination of Sulzdorf a.d.Lederhecke, Reuthsee is designated as a protected FFH nature conservation area. When planning your visit, you can therefore consider different interests around the same named place: paths by the water, the lake’s natural landscape and the archaeological remains in the surrounding woods.
