Main Valley Cycle Path

Highlight • Cycleway

Between Bayreuth and Kulmbach you drive a lot on small country roads. There is almost nowhere much traffic here, so it is easy to drive.

⚓ Mainzusammenfluss

Highlight • River

The Main, the most important river in northern Bavaria, does not have a single source, but arises at the confluence of the Red and White Maines. While the White Main springs in the Fichtelgebirge below the Ochsenkopf, the Red Main begins its run in the southern district of Bayreuth.
West of the city of Kulmbach below Schloss Steinenhausen, the two source rivers to the Main, which in contrast to the South Bavarian Danube, flows into the North Sea.
