Cycle Path from Ramsenthal to Harsdorf

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Finally tarred continuously and excellent to ride on a racing bike. Time trialists and triathletes can also "shoot" on the main street.

Kulmbach is a town with about 27,000 inhabitants, a large district town, which is located roughly in the middle of Upper Franconia. The landmark is the Plassenburg and the ascent is a challenge for cyclists as well as for hikers. As a racing cyclist, the absolute highlight is to master the Burgberg with its incline of up to 22 percent in a sprint. Quite a few have to take a little break from pushing or, like me, a 32 sprocket, chain on the left and pedaling out of the saddle, then it is also a good challenge for a hobby racer to conquer the 🏰 Burgberg with a racing bike.

Kulmbach is located on the Weißen Main and close to the Fichtelgebirge, Franconian Switzerland and the Franconian Forest are also in the catchment area of the large district town. And so you can do excellent day trips in dreamlike regions from here. Last but not least, the Mainweg should also be mentioned, which leads from the Fichtelgebirge through Kulmbach. So there's a lot to discover 🧭 here in Kulmbach and at the good Kulmbacher Edelherb you can plan the tour for the next day in the evening.

Newly Paved Road to Langenstadt

Highlight • Cycleway

Finally, the section from Neuenreuth to Langenstadt was re-asphalted. A good way to get from Bayreuth to Kulmbach through the Main Valley.

Here the bike path designers have put a lot of effort into creating a nice place for a break at the "Ferris wheel" 👍😉
