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.

View of Miltenberg’s Main Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

The arch bridge was first built in natural stone masonry in 1900 and was rebuilt in reinforced concrete after it was destroyed in 1945. Regardless of its practical use, it is a real eye-catcher.

September 20, 2023,4_Main Lohr - Aschaffenburg 💯

Started in the best morning mood. There were always ships on the move as we went along. Beautiful mirror shots in the morning. Later the wind came, of course against it. Only in the last 30km from the side and from behind.
25km before the finish I was treated to a wheat BUT when I wanted to continue again I …

July 24, 2023,Mainradweg von Bamberg bis Hanau - Tag 2 (Hofstetten -> Aschaffenburg)

Since the weather remained quite stable and I even had a bit of tailwind from Miltenberg, I went straight to Aschaffenburg today. That was a good choice. Because north and south of Aschaffenburg thunderstorms passed in the afternoon. But it only rained for a short time here. :)

May 18, 2023,Mainradweg II - Burg Rothenfels - Dettingen / Wind sei Dank 👍

Even today, no Main loop was left out, so a few kilometers easily add up. The many celebrations of "Vodderdag" were striking:

fishing party
garden party
Fire Brigade Festival
...
Everyone had something to celebrate. For me it was a cycling festival!

Very nice half-timbered town with castle: Miltenberg

July 10, 2022,Etappe 5: von Marktheidenfeld nach Aschaffenburg

The day started very fresh with only 17 degrees and the temperatures only increased to about 21 degrees, although the sun broke through the cloud cover occasionally quite violently and you never knew whether to put your jacket on or take it off. But what really annoyed us today was the constant headwind! Otherwise it was a leisurely tour through …

June 22, 2025,Karlstadt, Gemünden, Lohr, Wertheim,DB, Miltenberg, AschaffenburgHBF m Ulf

Today's tour was a bit complicated. The plan was to cycle to Miltenberg and then take the train back to Frankfurt, but because the DB had a construction site between Miltenberg and Aschaffenburg, we had to change our plans and take the train from Wertheim to Miltenberg (that was 33 km, which you have to deduct) and then cycle again …

April 13, 2022,Mainradweg 4. Tag🚲☀️☀️(mit Saharastaub🤭)

Today on the 4th stage I was finally able to start in shorts after a hearty breakfast. The sun (mixed with the Sahara dust that has been announced for days) ensured pleasant temperatures.
The route was good to unspectacular today, but you have to emphasize the surface condition again👍. 1a

May 20, 2022,R/ST (4/8 Tage): "Main- und Rheintour". Main entlang bis Klingenberg a.M. 90,5 KM. 480 HM.

Main & Rhine Tour 2022.
Day 4 actually took me mostly along the Main. Here, the cycle path infrastructure is now designed so that you can ride along the Main almost the whole time. But it's really beautiful and fun.
Of course, you should "take" one or the other place with you and look at it.

April 30, 2023,20230430 Mainradweg Tag 6 - Homburg am Main nach Aschaffenburg

The best day with the best weather. Everywhere great views and fantastic cycle paths.
Opposite the shipyard in Erlenbach there was (and probably is regularly) a mobile pavilion with coffee, cake and various wines. The rest here was worth it.
A surprise awaited me in Aschaffenburg: the Hamburger Fischmarkt with a very good Tina Turner double.
