In the immediate vicinity there are well signposted hiking trails and Nordic walking trails.
In winter, cross-country skiing trails are groomed in the area; in Spies + Osternohe there are 2 ski lifts for beginners and children. The downhill slopes in the Fichtelgebirge (Ochsenkopf-Warmensteinach) can be reached by car in about 1 hour.
There are a number of sights in the immediate vicinity that can be easily reached by car, such as the Hundshaupten Wildlife Park or the pilgrimage basilica in Gößweinstein. For the adventurous and families, there are the climbing parks in Betzenstein and Pottenstein as well as the canoe rental for paddling on the Wiesent. Fun for young and old, small and large. Brochures are available in the holiday home

Answer from Mrs. S. Ludwig:
Es war mir eine große Freude, Sie mit der ein oder anderen Tourbegleitung "verwöhnen" zu können. Urlaub soll ja auch etwas besonderes im Leben sein + darin muss es auch Orte zum Staunen geben, die man nicht erwartet hat...

Pure holiday enjoyment
We encountered a very clean vacation apartment that had everything we needed.
From the balcony, there is a wonderful view over the beautiful town of Obertrubach.
We visited the relatively nearby cities of Regensburg, Bamberg, and Bayreuth, which we were very taken with.
Additionally, we walked a lot in the picturesque landscape of the Franconian Switzerland.
The Franconian cuisine deserves high praise, as it is very good, very hearty, and above all still affordable. All in all, pure vacation pleasure!

Pure relaxation in Franconian Switzerland
We really enjoyed our vacation at Sonnenhang despite the initially bad weather, especially the tree sauna was a highlight for us :)
The holiday home Leo XIII is a beautiful house with a great view. The hedge was trimmed especially for us... Thank you very much for that!!!
We enjoyed the time very much; it went by too quickly.
Thank you very much for the hiking tips and the note about the bench with the great view :-)

Answer from Mrs. S. Ludwig:
Liebe Familie F(...),
das freut uns sehr, dass Sie die Baumhaussauna in vollen Zügen genießen konnten.
Die Sonnenuntergangsbank am Aussichtspunkt Altarstein steht in keinem Wanderführer + da sie durch einen kurzen Spaziergang durch den eigenen Wald hinter unseren Ferienhäusern gut erreichbar ist, bekommen diesen Tipp nur unsere netten Gäste-so wie Sie :-)

Cottage in the Green
Beautiful holiday cottage in Franconian Switzerland with a dreamlike view. Pretty and cozy furnishings with attention to detail. Hiking trails right at the doorstep. A dream for dog owners. The central location of Obertrubach is excellent for us 3D archers to visit the surrounding courses. Very nice owners. We would love to come back.

Vom Balkon aus hat man einen herrlichen Blick über den schönen Ort Obertrubach.
Wir haben die relativ nahegelegenen Städte Regensburg, Bamberg und Bayreuth besucht, von denen wir sehr angetan waren.
Außerdem waren wir viel zu Fuß in der malerischen Landschaft der Fränkischen Schweiz unterwegs .
Hoch zu loben ist die Fränkische Küche, die sehr gut, sehr üppig und vorallem noch bezahlbar ist. Alles in allem Urlaubsvergnügen pur!
Sehr herzliche Gastgeber, das man sich einfach nur wohlfühlen kann.
Selbst eine Sauna ist vorhanden, super.
Und die tolle Ruhe, die man genießen kann.
Hübsche und gemütliche Einrichtung mit Liebe zum Detail.
Wanderwege direkt vor der Haustüre. Ein Traum für Hundebesitzer.
Die zentrale Lage von Obertrubach ist für uns 3D Bogenschützen hervorragend geeignet um die umliegenden Parcours zu besuchen.
Sehr nette Besitzer.
Wir kommen gerne wieder.
Im Haus ist wirklich alles vorhanden, was man braucht (manchmal muss man halt auch mal länger suchen ;-)) Wanderungen und Radtouren kann man direkt vom Haus aus starten und auch im Dorf kriegt man alles, was man braucht. Besonders zu empfehlen ist die Bäckerei hinter der Kirche. :)
Es war einfach toll.
Sehr nette Vermieter, die gerne Tipps geben und ansprechbar sind. Die Kommunikation funktioniert sehr gut uns ist zuverlässig und einfach.
Alles zat mee. Zelfs de voorspelde regenachtige dagen bleven uit.
Modern knus huis met prachtig uitzicht, in een schitterend gebied.
Er is hier veel te doen en te zien, ook als je geen fanatiek wandelaar bent.
Wij bevelen bijvoorbeeld het industriemuseum in Lauf ad Pegnitz aan. Mooi museum en verrassend leuk plaatsje.
Peter en Marianne
Wir wären gerne länger geblieben, die Landschaft ist einfach großartig, Obertrubach bietet alles, was man für einen Wanderurlaub braucht. Nach dem Wandern gingen wir noch regelmäßig beim Bäcker vorbei und genossen den Kuchen mit wunderbarem Kaffee (super Kaffeemaschine) auf dem Balkon der Ferienwohnung. Gratis dazu: der Ausblick auf das Trubachtal. Abends kochten wir uns dann noch eine Kleinigkeit (die Küche ist perfekt eingerichtet und im Dorfladen gibt es fast alles). Als es zwischendurch mal kühler wurde, machten wir den Kamin an. Sehr gemütlich! Bei Fragen war Familie Ludwig immer ansprechbar und versorgte uns mit guten Wanderempfehlungen.
Wir kommen wieder!
