Fast Road Cycling Section Near Plassenburg Castle

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Towards the end of a long bike ride I was lucky enough to be able to ride behind a fast cyclist. This gave me another boost in motivation. This section is ideal for making good progress.

Kulmbach Market Square

Highlight • Settlement

A unique number of old villas, picturesque old town and museums. That's enough for a vacation. You also have a connection to the Franconian Forest, which I call a stronghold …
