Thurnau Castle

Highlight • Castle

Very beautiful and one of the largest and most important castle complexes in Northern Bavaria with construction phases from the 13th to the 19th century. Today there is a restaurant and a hotel with 21 modern rooms in the historical building ensemble.

Scenic Route from Limmersdorf to Neustädtlein

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

A beautiful section of the route from Limmersdorf to Neustädtlein via Simmelbuch. On side roads with little traffic, the path leads through undulating terrain through small villages worth seeing. People like to ride their racing bikes here. In Neustädtlein we continue towards Bayreuth or via the B22 to Hollfeld.

View of Neustadtlein Countryside

Highlight • Viewpoint

The route between Lahm and Limmersdorf is rarely used with mostly good surface and offers a lot of variety with inclines and descents.

Nice view over Bayreuth to the Fichtelgebirge and the Kulm. Bench to rest and let the area work.

Oberwaiz–Bayreuth Clinic Cycle Path

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Especially towards the clinic and a little tailwind a pleasure. Then the post is really going on! Completely tarred meanwhile and a great view of the Fichtelgebirge. Once the country road has to be crossed.

Here the bike path designers have put a lot of effort into creating a nice place for a break at the "Ferris wheel" 👍😉

Newly Paved Road to Langenstadt

Highlight • Cycleway

Finally, the section from Neuenreuth to Langenstadt was re-asphalted. A good way to get from Bayreuth to Kulmbach through the Main Valley.
