By e-bike through the Bamberg countryside

Eckdaten zur Tour
Baroque splendour, scenic feasts for the eyes and a variety of culinary delights await you on this e-bike tour through the Bamberg region. Cultural treasures are harmoniously embedded in the landscape like gemstones in a piece of jewellery. For example, the baroque Seehof Castle near Memmelsdorf or the romantic Greifenstein Castle near Heiligenstadt. Other highlights: a visit to the inventor of jeans at the Levi-Strauss Museum in Buttenheim and the only yaw ferry in Upper Franconia across the Regnitz near Pettstadt.

The route leads from Bamberg railway station out of the city over the hills of the Franconian Alb to the Leinleitertal valley and through the Regnitz valley back to Bamberg.

The route is mostly away from busy roads on tourist cycle routes. The excursion is rounded off in the Bamberg World Cultural Heritage Site with the cathedral, the Old Court, the New Residence, the Inselrathaus and the historic old town with its numerous inns and beer cellars, where you can fortify yourself at the end of an eventful day with Franconian brewing and cookery.
