Probably the most beautiful section of the Saale Valley Cycle Path. You can hardly get this close to the Saale River anywhere else.

There is something special about enjoying a snack with a glass of wine in the picturesque old town below the Scherenburg castle.

Rieneck Castle is a hilltop castle built around 1150 above the town of Rieneck in the Sinntal valley of Lower Franconia, Bavaria. Today, it serves as the youth castle of the Association of Christian Girl Scouts and Boy Scouts. The castle is known for its tower chapel, unique on the European mainland and located entirely within the keep wall.

Dam with power plant on the Main. It's possible to walk from one bank to the other. On the left side of the river, there's a special rail for pushing bicycles instead of lifting them.

The 50th parallel runs here. This is marked on the bike path. A bench has also been set up there, inviting you to take a short break with a view of the Main River. The 50th parallel is also marked on the bench itself.
