And because it was so beautiful this morning, we're taking the family for another ride on the new Super Main Cycle Path between Niedernberg and Aschaffenburg. Since May 2025, the western Main Cycle Path in Aschaffenburg has been spectacularly easy to cycle on. And the views are always breathtaking. A true must for every cyclist.
