Abt-Degen-Weintal Vineyards near Ziegelanger

Highlight • Natural

The house with a face. When we drove past here as children, we had a competition to see who would discover the house first. What could be in there...?

A few years ago I saw the house up close. It has no rear wall at the back and is only used for storing devices.

Eltmann am Main

Highlight • Settlement

Eltmann is nestled between the Main and the mountain range of the Steigerwald. The history of the city goes back to the 7th century and the old town will inspire you with the lovingly maintained houses and squares. If you want to refresh yourself after your hike, you can also visit the heated outdoor pool.

Historic Old Town of Zeil am Main

Highlight • Historical Site

Not far from the World Heritage city of Bamberg, the picturesque half-timbered town of Zeil a.Main is in a charming location in the Main valley at the foot of the Haßberge mountains. (5,600 inhabitants, 312 m above sea level, first mentioned in 1018)

At the junction of wine and beer Franconia, there is a lot to discover and enjoy in terms of cuisine and culture. The historic old town enchants with its artistic half-timbered architecture on the unique market square and in the winding alleys and streets.

The remains of the city wall and the mighty city tower made of local sandstone bear witness to a rich and eventful history. Since 2011, this has been part of the "Zeiler Hexenturm" documentation center with exhibition rooms on the persecution of witches during the Thirty Years' War.

The scenery isn't that great, there's a lot of highways along the way. You rarely see the Main

Showing Translation

From Bamberg there are still 384 river kilometers ahead of us - if you want to get married, we recommend the Maria Limbach pilgrimage church just before Sand - and the outdoor pool in Haßfurt.
The search for restaurants is not easy because of days off, closed, etc.

Short, strenuous tour to Hassfurt. From there, continue by train to Frankfurt.

Sun, up to 28 degrees, light east wind.
On the Regnitz canal opposite the harbor to the mouth of the Main, which is navigable from here, km 384. On the shipping route today, 2 barges and a parked cruise ship were spotted. Cute.
Typical system of canalized rivers: river loops with weirs. Cut parallel to lock. Some sections …

I would like to ride the June tour again and deepen the impressions a bit. You can safely forget today's section. A lot along roads and the car traffic was sometimes quite annoying. Luckily it was only a few kilometers and tomorrow it will be much better. I did enjoy the ride itself though.

A very bad start with rain from Bamberg has developed quite well up to Haßfurt. Easy paths, nice landscape. Unfortunately, often on the N26 federal road.
Definitely Weingut Dr. Heigel in Zeil am Main at the roundabout exit towards Haßfurt
visit.😀🥂
