June 25, 2023,Rundradadtour von Gaustadt / Bamberg nach Zeil am Main
Beautiful bike tour, especially if the route runs directly along the Main, but unfortunately often also along the main road. But the small towns along the way also impress with beautiful houses, sometimes made of sandstone, sometimes half-timbered. For us it was a nice tour 🙂

Today we took a leisurely bike ride along the banks of the Main River. We stopped for lunch at the Göller brewery restaurant "Zur Alten Freyung" and for a beer on the way, once again at the Mainlust restaurant. The scenery is beautiful and the area is perfect for cycling and hiking.

GPS and altitude are acting up again...but no wonder at 29° in the shade...
It's a nice tour along the Main

Showing Translation

Well-developed bike paths, but unfortunately often along the streets and little by the river

Showing Translation

We took advantage of the cool morning and set off via Eltmann and past Maria Limbach with a short stop at the church square in Sand am Main to Zeil am Main. There we cycled along the gardens by the city wall to Roberts Hof with its beer garden and Christine's farm shop. But we were more in the mood …

Well-developed bike paths, although most of them run along the main road. It's not always possible to cycle directly along the Main River, as several "islands" and tributaries cross the route. The towns are very beautiful, especially Bamberg with its medieval old town.

Showing Translation

From the ridden tours of the Main Cycle Path the worst stage so far - almost only along the road and little to see of the Main - unfortunately almost no rest or rest stops.

Showing Translation

From Bug, via Bamberg to Schonungen. Nice bike tour with slight inclines, diversions are well described. Almost always along the Main.
