The best road cycling routes in Hegbachaue Bei Messel

Here it is excellent for cycling.

Vehicle-free connecting path between the two places. It rolls comfortably through the fields, always asphalted and of good quality.

An important warning regarding the classification of this route: It is often labeled as a 'road cycling route', but is in fact a country road with a high potential for danger. The 'horror movie trap': The beginning of the route is deceptively idyllic, open, and clearly visible – you feel safe. But from the middle onwards, the picture changes: Dense tree cover creates strong flickering between light and dark, in which cyclists are often only perceived by car drivers at the last moment. Precisely this transition regularly leads to dangerous near-misses. Why this is life-threatening: Condition & Positioning: The right edge of the road is in poor condition due to potholes, forcing cyclists to ride further into the middle to avoid falls. The width problem: The road is extremely narrow. Given increasingly wider vehicles (especially SUVs), the legally required safety distance when overtaking is often physically impossible, even without oncoming traffic. As soon as the cyclist swerves to avoid the pothole zone, it becomes dangerously tight for them as a cyclist, as there is simply not enough space for a safe overtake. No cycle path: There is no physically separated cycle path. Anyone riding here should be aware that this is not a secured circuit, but a heavily trafficked car road. Ride defensively and do not rely on the 'road cycling route' label – the geometry of the road hardly allows for safe overtaking nowadays! Even if the asphalt has been improved compared to before, the route remains a high-risk zone due to the lack of physical separation and the narrow road with modern vehicle widths.

Construction period & architect: The church was built between 1739 and 1741. It is a late work by the famous Baroque master builder Balthasar Neumann, who also designed the Würzburg Residence. Patron: The client was Countess Maria Theresia von Schönborn, who commissioned Neumann with the planning. Architecture: From the outside, the building appears rather simple, but impresses with its harmonious proportions. The interior, on the other hand, is a magnificent example of late Baroque with flowing transitions and a bright, airy atmosphere. Special features inside: Ceiling painting: The impressive frescoes were created by Giovanni Francesco Marchini and create fascinating optical illusions (trompe-l'oeil). Tombs: The church contains magnificent tombs of the von Schönborn family. Organ: The organ case still dates from the church's construction period. Significance: St. Cecilia's is often referred to as the "jewel box of the Baroque". Due to its excellent acoustics, high-quality concerts are regularly held there.

Not worth it at all. Far too narrow roads and a lot of traffic too. Bad road and the route is also very ugly
