Seven breweries, traditional inns and beer cellars, pretty half-timbered villages, art trails and the gently rolling hills of Franconian Tuscany - all this awaits you on this tour. On the 16 kilometres from Tiefenellern to Strullendorf, you should definitely plan enough time for the many rustic refreshment stops.
Of the seven breweries on this tour, five currently serve their liquid trademark to their guests. The other two breweries sell their beer on selected dates. It is best to find out about the dates in advance if you would like to sample the beer from these breweries.
This tour is a "VGN leisure tip" and has been organised in cooperation with the Greater Nuremberg Transport Association.
