Lower bridge

Highlight • Viewpoint

The place to be for many younger Bambergers... this is where people meet, drink a beer and linger. This summer there was a beer garden on the lower bridge for the first time, which was well received. The lower bridge can currently be viewed "in person" again....

Old Town Bamberg

Highlight • Historical Site

Bamberg is well worth it! Although very touristy this city - but with many highlights. The city is located in the north of Bavaria and at the mouth of the rivers Regnitz and Main and extends over seven hills. Many picturesque buildings characterize the old town, where everyone finds a cozy place to rest. Attractions such as the Old Town Hall, the cathedral, the Hofbräu, and many others.

View of Little Venice on the Regnitz

Highlight • Viewpoint

The former fishing settlement in the Bamberg island town is affectionately called "Little Venice". Tightly packed half-timbered buildings and tiny gardens dominate the image of this district. The half-timbered houses are mostly from the Middle Ages.

Old Main Bridge Kitzingen

Highlight • Bridge

Of course, Kitzingen has much to offer.
However, in many disciplines, the "large district town" often only wins second place compared to the surrounding area.
Who e.g. Eating well in this room or trying wine in a cozy wine bar or in a quaint wine tavern, between Volkach and Marktbreit somewhere else easier to reach the goal.

September 19, 2023,Tag 8 Mainradweg: Bamberg - Kitzingen

From Bamberg we now head home on the Main cycle path. Almost the entire route to Kitzingen is asphalted and has only slight inclines, so I thought I had a tour that wasn't too strenuous - despite the 117km. Unfortunately I had the wind against me: on 3/4 of the route I had sometimes strong green or crosswinds with sometimes …
