The best MTB trails around Frensdorf

This park invites Bamberg residents and visitors to linger in beautiful weather. It is located directly on the banks of the Regnitz river and is shady enough for warm days with many green trees. Several paths run through it, one directly along the water, where you can see many cyclists passing by. In the park itself, food and drinks are provided at the "Kunni".

At the southern end of Mühlwörth, where the old town transitions into the Hain, the Regnitz rushes over a short rapid. The water emerges here from the so-called Walkspund – the historical water inlet of the Walkmühle, where the Bamberg cloth makers once compacted their wool fabrics with water-powered hammers. The current mill building dates from the mid-18th century and is a listed monument. Directly next to it lies the historic Lock 100, the last chamber of the Ludwig-Danube-Main Canal before its confluence with the Regnitz, complete with its preserved lock keeper's house. The combination of foaming water, old mill, canal lock, and the mighty oaks of the adjacent Theresienhain makes this spot one of the most charming sections of the river path. 📍 Mühlwörth, turning point of the loop before the entrance to Theresienhain 💧 Rapid at the Walkspund, particularly impressive after rain or during floods 🏛️ Walkmühle of the cloth makers, 18th century, listed building ⚓ Lock 100 with lock chamber and keeper's house, a few steps away 🌳 Theresienhain: laid out in 1803 as a public park, one of Germany's oldest nature reserves 📷 Motif: Mill with rapid in the foreground, best viewed from the small jetty 🚶 From here, cross the bridge back towards Nonnenbrücke and Geyerswörth

The origin of the wayside shrine is linked to a legend: The Röbersdorf church bells were taken from the church tower by the Swedes during the Thirty Years' War and were to be transported away on a wagon towards Erlach. The wagon got stuck in a marshy area at the edge of the village. Even with the help of 3 pairs of oxen, the wagon could not be pulled out. At the same time, the Swedes received word that Imperial troops were approaching from Pommersfelden, whereupon they fled. The Röbersdorf bells were saved and could be brought back.

The weathered wayside shrine, referred to by locals as „Weiß Marter“, was extensively restored in 1989 as part of the land consolidation. The resting stone located directly next to it served the rural population for setting down their carried loads during a rest and a silent prayer.

Some have a pool, a terrace or flowers in the front garden, others two real helicopters.

Always worth a visit.

The Regnitz has incredibly many beautiful spots

Great structure. What a super technique - nice to look at
