Nestled between rolling hills and the Bohemian Forest lies Julbach, with its striking neo-Romanesque St. Anne's Church a prominent landmark visible from afar. A mild climate, walnut and plum trees, expansive meadows, and tranquil forests make it the perfect place to stop. www.julbach.at

If you're looking for a truly hearty break on your tour, stop by the Meraner Kutscherstadl. Their Kutscherpfandl (a traditional Austrian dish) is just the thing to revive your legs – and a cold beer will help you unwind. The perfect stop before you continue your journey. https://www.muehlviertel.at/essen-trinken/gastronomie/oesterreich-gastronomie/detail/430000349/meraner-kutscherstadl-gasthof-cafe-pub.html
