    The Red Main is a few miles longer than the White Main, but the Weißmainquelle is water rich.

      Origin of the red main

        Source "Roter Main". In summer it sometimes happens that the spring only "gushes" in droplets, so it's good that "our Red Main" is fed by many small tributaries ...
        So he can connect with the White Main and let off steam as far as the Rhine.
        The special thing is that I have already cycled along the "Main Cycle Path", very beautiful cycle paths on the Main are being preserved and created. So you can cycle or hike beautifully from "the sources" along the Main.
        Of course also from the "Weisser Main Quelle" beautiful cycle paths develop over the entire regions of Upper Middle Franconia & Hesse; cycle along and enjoy🚴🏼‍♂️🚴‍♀️🚵🚵🏻‍♀️💨
