View of Miltenberg’s Main Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

The arch bridge was first built in natural stone masonry in 1900 and was rebuilt in reinforced concrete after it was destroyed in 1945. Regardless of its practical use, it is a real eye-catcher.

Old Stone Bridge over the Tauber

Highlight • Bridge

Very nice place to cross the Tauber. But always make sure that you are not overlooked by oncoming traffic (cars). The bridge is quite narrow.

Take advantage of the opportunities. From behind through beautiful valleys to the Stammtisch. This way there are also a few kilometers for city cycling.

The 2nd stage of the Franconian Rad-Achts, Westring round, begins for me in Miltenberg. At the entrance to the village is a large, gravelled, free car park. The Rad-Acht follows the Main Cycle Path to Wertheim. From Wertheim you continue on the Taubertal cycle path. The two circuits, Ostring and Westring, meet in Wertheim and run together for the next …

Conclusion of the Taubertal cycle path with start in Tauberbischofsheim and via Bronnbach Monastery to the mouth of the Tauber near Wertheim.
From there we followed the Main cycle path to Miltenberg to get home by train.

Experienced a lot again and took in plenty of castles and palaces 👍

Miltenberg is definitely worth a visit, but should not be on the weekend or a public holiday. It's stupid when the train goes back 3! minutes before departure and it is unclear whether there is still one at all 🙄🙄

Nice tour, again with winter clothes, because of the ice-cold north-east wind. It was only after Wertheim that he came from behind and pushed properly. Again almost only asphalt. Bad surprise at KM 19.2. Within seconds, the wheels, spokes, brake discs and frame were covered with a sticky mass of slime and loam. That was maybe 50m and they didn't …

A wonderful repeat tour from my repertoire. My highlight today was the Hennenburg Castle with its dark, narrow, underground battlements.
The beer garden and view were fantastic.
I had to contend with the wind today; it felt like a headwind.
