レヒテンバッハのおすすめライド

A shady spot for a cool break in summer with a magnificent view.

There is something special about enjoying a snack with a glass of wine in the picturesque old town below the Scherenburg castle.

View of the Scherenburg and Gemünden am Main

You then get a very good idea of how devastating some floods must have been....

The Hafenlohr is a 26.5 km long (27.7 km including the Tiergartenbach) right tributary of the Main River in the districts of Aschaffenburg and Main-Spessart in the Bavarian Spessart region. The Hafenlohr rises from two springs in the municipality of Rothenbuch. The longer and occasionally more water-rich branch is the Tiergartenbach, which often dries up on dry days. Officially, it is considered the upper course of the Hafenlohr main watercourse. The source, known as the Hafenlohr Spring, in the center of the village provides water almost year-round. The Hafenlohr Spring is located at Rothenbuch Castle. It was encased in sandstone during the road widening of the St 2317. Its water flows northwest through the castle moat and, after about 100 meters, flows from the left bank into the bed of the Tiergartenbach, which flows from the Tiergartengrund on the northern edge of the village and is already 1.3 km[7] long. It doesn't provide water year-round, but at times it provides more than the perennial spring at the castle. The spring at the castle was probably once a meeting place for hunters in the eastern Spessart, which is why construction of a hunting lodge began here in 1342. The spring water fed the castle moat and several surrounding trout lakes, which no longer exist. Source and further information: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hafenlohr_(Fluss)

The 50th parallel runs here. This is marked on the bike path. A bench has also been set up there, inviting you to take a short break with a view of the Main River. The 50th parallel is also marked on the bench itself.

just relax

The ice cream parlor also serves good Italian espresso! Otherwise, a visit to the old town is worthwhile, even just for a quick stop.
