Key facts of the tour
The Main landscape is something for connoisseurs. The river with its meadows and lakes, the orchards and sun-kissed vineyards are a delight for nature lovers. The tour takes you past the magnificent Werneck Castle, through traditional Franconian wine-growing villages and to the two beautiful monasteries in the area - pure cultural enjoyment. Culinary enthusiasts can look forward to asparagus, wine and regional delicacies in rustic restaurants and cosy wineries. The Franconian Silvaner is particularly recommended here. Enjoy the views along the route and, near Wipfeld, the panoramic views of famous vineyards such as the Eselsberg or Wipfelder Zehntgraf.
