Homburg Castle is primarily dedicated to art. There are chamber concerts and exhibitions and the artist Linda Schwarz is at home with her graphic workshop in another wing of the building. The former knight's castle has become an artistic gem.

View of the vineyards along the Main Cycle Path

Highlight • Viewpoint

The Mainradweg is particularly impressive here. The river has dug deep into the landscape and the slopes offer the best conditions for good wine.

Just before the Tauber flows into the Main, the colorful houses move very close to the shore. Here you will also find some nice places to stop where you can strengthen yourself and enjoy the atmosphere.

Great tour along the Main. We took the MSP Sprinter (bus) back to Trennfeld. Super ride with a stop for Ice Cream in Wertheim!

May 11, 2024,Etappe 8 : Wertheim - Bettingbergtunnel - Lengfurt - Wertheim auf dem Mainradweg

The west portal of the Bettingberg tunnel is currently closed. The east portal is open. You can walk in the tunnel on the gravel path of the old railway line to the wall (after about 250 - 300m), then through a door. Now comes the asphalt part of the tunnel to the west portal. (No exit!!!) You have to go …

The pre-ride for the ADFC tour in August was a bit difficult at times. I felt like a bus grazed me along the way.

Particularly small, steep wine-growing area of Kallmuth in the Kalkgirge and decorative cement works
Almost a gorge between Spessart and Odenwald.
In Wertheim, no more headwind and showers. So take the RE88 to the destination near Miltenberg. The latter places …

We didn't like this part of the route along the Main that much, it was quite monotonous.
