There is a lot to discover at the Main loop in Unterbrunn near Ebensfeld!
Here you can climb an 8 m high bird watching tower and observe numerous bird species from there - with a bit of luck even kingfishers, nightingales or little ringed plovers. You can also see goats from above, which live on the island in the Mainschleife as part of landscape conservation.
The bird watching tower is part of the almost 2 km long Maine chirping path, which was laid out by children for children and on which you can learn more about the local flora and fauna at several stations.
The flat banks of the Main and the Main's pebbly beaches also invite you to swim and play in the water.
