August 13, 2021,Tag 8b Romantische Straße : durch das Taubertal bis Creglingen
Shortly after Rothenburg we visited the lovely Peter and Paul Church in Detwang, which houses a wonderful Riemenschneider altar! Then we went up and down the hills to Creglingen (sweaty due to the humidity and the altitude), from there we cycled to another highlight, the Herrgottskirche in Creglingen: here, too, a Riemenschneider altar! A great wealth of art!

After admiring the incredibly filigree, expressive Riemenschneider altar in Creglingen. I cycled with friends to Rothenburg ob d Tauber. My husband drove the camper to Rothenburg.

Franconian nature park. Quiet during the week today.
This makes the impression all the more contrary when you come through the castle gate in …

A bike tour up and down through a beautiful landscape with 100% asphalt, with top speeds of over 50 km/h downhill, highly recommended. Without motor traffic, you shouldn't miss it.

Today was the third part of our tour, this went from Creglingen to Rothenburg ob der Tauber.
Of the three tours, this was the most demanding, as it was constantly uphill and downhill, according to the plan, there should be 200 meters in altitude over 19 km.

Very nice bike path through the lovely Taubertal. Very idyllic area right along the Tauber. Unfortunately it was over in Creglingen, because the bike path was completely closed (and no diversion was shown). Therefore, another 8km had to be avoided. Too bad.

So beautiful the lovely Taubertal 🌳☀️ a small but fine tour 🚴 ♀️

We are currently still at the Nugget Meeting 🚌 in Rothenburg o.T. Today we used the free time for cycling. We didn't expect a bike path on the river to have so many inclines 😅🚴🏼🚴🏼‍♀️🙋🏻‍♀️🙋🏽‍♂️🚌
