The pilgrimage church is idyllically located in the middle of the vineyards above the Main. In the late Gothic church you can admire the wooden carved “Madonna in the Rosary” by Tilman Riemenschneider.

June 7, 2023,Main Tag 2 Haßfurt - Volkach
Today's section was very pleasant to drive. In Schweinfurt am Main, too, everything is relaxed. From Bergrheinfeld, the Main Cycle Path mainly runs on cycle paths on small, quiet roads.
In Wipfeld we took a small ferry. Before that there was the ice cream 🍨 🍨 of the day

From Haßfurt to Schweinfurt, a little shady on the cycle path between the Main and the poorly used railway line, brisk and pleasant.
In Schweinfurt, small industrial culture displays on the banks. View of the SKF and ZF headquarters. Memorials to forced labor …

This morning we first had to wake up the sleepy hotelier, then breakfast was late. In Schweinfurt there is not only Spitzweg and C.D.Friedrich in the Schäfer Museum, the visit is worth the break, cafe opposite. The bathing lake just before Fahr is just right just before the end of the stage. The short ascent to the Maria im Weingarten …

Day 3: Main Cycle Route
Today, it was already very humid right from the start. The route took us along the Main River through nature, with stops in Haßfurt and Schweinfurt. There were two short showers along the way, but otherwise it was dry.

Today our cycling was all about "enjoyment". A little wine here, a tarte flambée there. Ice cream specialties in Volkach. The wine bars in Sommerach were full and there were happy people everywhere 😊

Showing Translation

Today's stage had virtually no climbs and was a very relaxed ride. Otherwise, it was quite varied, and we really enjoyed the route, unlike yesterday.

Finally, we're back on the road! We're embarking on our big 2025 cycling trip and hoping for 1200 kilometers of fun.

Equipped with a new, larger tent, sleeping bags, a camping stove, and now also a bike trailer, we're setting off together on a new cycling adventure.

We'd love for you to join us again.
