Highlight • Structure

The most beautiful way to cross the Main River between Frankfurt and Hanau. It's hard to believe: There's been a ferry service at this point since the 17th century. It's …

View of the Frankfurt Skyline and European Central Bank

Highlight • Viewpoint

The cycle path runs directly along the Main riverbank. If you cycle the entire Grüngürtelweg, you will repeatedly get new perspectives of the Frankfurt skyline. The view of the European Central Bank is particularly striking here.

June 26, 2023,Main-Radweg 11: Von Froschhausen nach Rüsselsheim

Unfortunately, our penultimate stage on the Main Cycle Path did not go quite smoothly. Breakfast had to be taken at a baker's. Then our smartphone failed completely under the skyline of Frankfurt, so that we had to cycle to the end of the route to Rüsselsheim without a navigation system. A few days earlier, a violent tornado raged between Höchst …

June 19, 2025,Goetheturm im Frankfurter Wald

Today we went from Hanau/Steinheim to the Götheturm in Frankfurt, always along the Main River. A nice tour so far, but from Offenbach onwards, there were quite a few people around. It was a lot of fun visiting the Götheturm with our group again. There aren't many pictures, as we'd have to stop a few times to look. Greetings to …

November 13, 2025,Rundtour um den Main - Schloss Philippsruhe, Fechenheim, EZB, Offenbach, Hanau

The forecast was for seven hours of sunshine. In reality, it was a misty cloud cover. The ride started past Philippsruhe Castle along the Main River. Onward through Dörnigheim itself, past the Rumpenheim ferry towards Mainkur. A glimpse of the Feldberg mountain beckoned along the way. From Mainkur, the bike path ends abruptly, and one struggles through Fechenheim to the …

September 9, 2021,Auf nach Mainhattan

The last stage from the beautiful Hessian town of Seligenstadt. The closer you get to Frankfurt, the wider the banks of the Main: Here you always cycle on well-developed cycle paths with a view of the river. The train ride back to Rothenburg is adventurous. Changing twice with an e-bike and luggage is always a muscular challenge. Only one bike …
