This tour is a tip for cycling and wine fans, because it offers both cycling fun and wine - vines as far as the eye can see! I changed my bike tour a little, the starting point …

Pleasure tour around the wine island. It wasn't about sport, it was about enjoyment. Accordingly, we often took a break to explore the villages and their gastronomy.
Sommerach, Dettelbach, Köhler, Escherndorf, Volkach, Nordheim etc. So the area of the "wine island"
