The Castle Road is a very popular holiday route traversing 770 km from Mannheim in the west to Bayreuth in the east, via Nuremberg and Bamberg. You can take your bike to cover the length of the Castle Road, taking you from castle to castle, from palace to palace.
The section described here is the 56 km part in the region of Bamberg, integrating Franconian Switzerland, the world heritage city of Bamberg and the impressive valley of the River Main north of Bamberg. Typical villages and idyllic towns with lots of half timber framework houses going back to the middle ages and of course the medieval castles along the way take you on a time travel experience to many cultural highlights.
