Röder Gate (Rothenburg ob der Tauber)

Highlight • Historical Site

The Röderturm with its fortifications is very beautiful and impressive. The tower can be climbed and offers a great view of the city and the surrounding area.

Tauber River in Tauberzell

Highlight • River

The Tauber is an idyllic, small river that rises near Weikersholz and after about 130 km flows into the Main near Wertheim. She accompanies the cyclists on almost the entire “Lovely Taubertal” cycle path, between Rothenburgo.d.Tbr. and Wertheim and invites you to rest in many beautiful places.

The most beautiful place on the Tauber

Highlight • River

Here you can take a short rest and let the rippling of the Tauber over a small "waterfall" work its magic on you. Absolutely pure peace.

Taubertal Cycle Path

Highlight • Cycleway

In the summer of 2021 I will be taking the cycle path from Rothenburg o.d.T. drove to Wertheim. The "Lovely Tauber Valley" cycle path deserves its name for every kilometer. Attractive landscapes and romantic half-timbered towns like on a string of pearls. Definitely drive!

Rothenburg ob der Tauber — Old Town

Highlight • Historical Site

Rothenburg is considered one of Germany's best-preserved medieval old towns, and the first glimpse of the half-timbered facades around the market square immediately shows you why. If you have some time, a walk along the completely preserved town wall is worthwhile. From above, you'll see the old town's roofscape from a perspective you won't soon forget. In the early morning, the city is still quiet and almost belongs to you alone.

May 27, 2022,Ein bisschen an der Tauber entlang mit dem Radl 🚴🏼🚴🏼‍♀️🙋🏻‍♀️🙋🏽‍♂️🚌

We are currently still at the Nugget Meeting 🚌 in Rothenburg o.T. Today we used the free time for cycling. We didn't expect a bike path on the river to have so many inclines 😅🚴🏼🚴🏼‍♀️🙋🏻‍♀️🙋🏽‍♂️🚌

Today we only go a short distance on the Gaubahn to Bieberehren. Then we finally reach the Tauber. With constant ups and downs we go through Creglingen and Detwang to Rothenburg. The inclines are sometimes a challenge even with a Pedelec. But when you go downhill you are rewarded for the effort beforehand. At speeds of up to 45 kmh …

The lovely Tauber Valley, with sunny temperatures we drove from Rothenburg o.d.T. off and after a few meters were fascinated by nature, by the path and the area. Of course it was not only downhill but also uphill from time to time, but it can also be done without an e-bike. In Creglingen we strengthened ourselves in the bakery (the …

Very nice bike path through the lovely Taubertal. Very idyllic area right along the Tauber. Unfortunately it was over in Creglingen, because the bike path was completely closed (and no diversion was shown). Therefore, another 8km had to be avoided. Too bad.

October 19, 2022,[BY] Rothenburg o.d.T. - Tauber-/Mühlenweg - Creglingen & retour🚴‍♂️🍂

We've heard a lot about the "lovely Tauber Valley". So rent a bike and explore it yourself. In search of mills (which are or were here in abundance) and sun, we came through the Schandtaubertal (which was also very inviting for hiking...) and the Taubertal. In constant uphill and downhill (and there were also steep climbs, which of course were …

Took advantage of the last rays of late summer sunshine and drove a little way in the Tauber Valley. It was really nice! 🥰

A bike tour up and down through a beautiful landscape with 100% asphalt, with top speeds of over 50 km/h downhill, highly recommended. Without motor traffic, you shouldn't miss it.
