Metzenberg Climb

Highlight (Segment) • Climb

Not so great as a downhill run - must be sometimes, but I don't like it.
The road surface is rough and bad.
When you drive out of the forest you should be very careful - strange cross winds have blown some into the ditch here.

Along the Lauter

Highlight • River

Get off the busy road, into the idyllic Loffeld - always along the Lauter. Logo, you can't just step through here, like on the straight. But it is worthwhile for the eye to choose the route through the villages. In such an environment it is almost effortless anyway.

Roadside, well-paved bike path between Bad Staffelstein and Ebensfeld. In the direction of Ebensfeld, it goes steadily downhill down the Main. Here it is worthwhile to avoid the busy road. Unfortunately, the many mosquitoes are bothering us at the moment ...
