Kleinziegenfelder Valley, Natural valley in Upper Franconia, Germany.

The Kleinziegenfelder Valley extends twelve kilometers through the Weismain-Alb region, featuring limestone cliffs and mixed forests at elevations between 330 and 440 meters.

The valley received recognition in 1905 with the installation of the Claudius cyclist statue, marking a period of increased regional development and tourism.

Local settlements maintain traditional sheep grazing practices that shape the landscape, creating distinct grassland slopes with scattered juniper growth throughout the valley.

The Apollofalter-Wanderweg circular route spans six kilometers through multiple villages, connecting visitors to designated observation points and information boards about regional ecology.

The valley contains notable rock formations including the Red Wall, Rolands Rock, Petrified Giant, and Stone Monk, each with associated regional narratives.
