Kinzigtal Cycle Path

Highlight • Cycleway

Kinzig Valley Cycling Path in Naturpark Hessischer Spessart

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Beautiful but sometimes tricky road surface. A few meters gravel strip during which you might need to step down when on the road bike. But overall managable and worth it!
