Quiet bike path on the Main Peninsula off the road between meadows and fields with crossing of the Main Canal. Several shady benches along the cycle path invite you to take a break.

Unfortunately, my Garmin did not completely save the tour in one. We should actually drive at least as far as Kitzing, but it started to rain in Dettelbach and we decided to go back. In the afternoon, however, the weather got better again, so we sat down in the vinotheque in Sommerach and tasted Main wines. 😜🙋‍♀️🙋🏼‍♂️🚴‍♀️🚴‍♂️
