Old Stone Bridge over the Tauber

Highlight • Bridge

Very nice place to cross the Tauber. But always make sure that you are not overlooked by oncoming traffic (cars). The bridge is quite narrow.

Marketplace Weikersheim

Highlight • Settlement

A wonderful, quiet spot, with its small wine bars, cafés, restaurants, and ice cream parlor, it's a great place to linger. The market square is especially recommended, as it's home …

May 10, 2024,Liebliches Taubertal "Tag 1" Auf dem Klassiker von Wertheim bis Creglingen

I already cycled the section from Wertheim to Bieberehren in June and August 2022 on the Main-Tauber-Fränkischer-Radachter. The cycle path along the Tauber is always nice to ride. Rightly a 5 🌟 cycle path.

Great tour from Craiglingen to Wertheim 🚴‍♂️.
Great places including Bad Mergentheim and Tauberbischofsheim 👍.
However, the route is demanding, because starting from about 10 km before Wertheim, 6 steep climbs follow. The area along the Tauber compensates for the effort 🙋‍♂️. In Wertheim you can then "reward or compensate" yourself with a cool drink 🤣

August 1, 2021,1 Etappe Taubertalradweg-Wertheim bis zur Holdermühle

This is the first stage of the bike tour from the mouth of the Tauber via the Altmühl cycle path to the mouth of the Danube and then on to Regensburg.
It starts in Wertheim. The entire route is beautifully landscaped. But it is also dangerous, especially when it is wet. There are a few unintelligible bends in which it …

After my orthopedic appointment in Karlstadt a.Main, I drove straight on to Rothenburg ob. der Tauber by car and bike, on the back of the carrier. From here we went on the Tauber cycle path to Wertheim, where the Tauber flows into the Main.
Overall a nice tour with some inclines.
The worst part was the headwind from start to …

June 13, 2022,💯 Rothenburg odT nach Wertingen Taubertal

Yesterday followed the Tauber from the source to Rothenburg and today it continues to the point where it flows into the Main.
Good bike paths, sometimes small roads. The Tauber is mostly a brook of dubious color but the tour was fun. In Weikersheim you could plan cultural heritage, e.g. a visit to the castle.
In the last third, the …

July 12, 2021,Durchs liebliche Taubertal

This morning started the day with a short tour of Rothenburg. Nothing was going on in the city yet. Then it went with the Fietse through the lovely Taubertal. The bike path is actually called that and has earned its name. It leads on first-class cycle paths far away from road traffic through narrow valleys, wide landscapes and romantic places. …
