Key facts of the tour
Ansbach is nestled in peaceful countryside, with rivers and streams babbling through it. Tranquil little villages boast historical gems. You cycle in the footsteps of the Middle Ages, Baroque and Rococo along the watercourses and discover one eye-catcher after another.

The ornate courtyard garden right at the start in Ansbach and the lovingly laid out bible garden in the dwarf town of Ornbau invite you to get off your bike and take a stroll. The castles of Triesdorf, Sommersdorf and Herrieden take you back to the splendour of historical times. An extended tour suitable for all fitness levels on an e-bike.
A cycle tour for nature lovers, culture vultures and explorers
