Franken Wine and the Romantic Road
Franken Wine and the Romantic Road
11 Day Cycling Holiday
‘One Night Stops’ 7 Day
You can deservedly raise a glass to this epic German journey – preferably with one of the exclusive wines produced in this extraordinary wine-growing region. And, as well as discovering the simple rustic charm of Franconia, you’ll also see why the ‘Romantic Road’ deserves its name as you wind your way through stunning valleys and past historic towns en route. ‘Prost’!
Highlights will include:
- The Franken wine region, producing some of Germany’s finest white wines
- Volkach, Iphofen and Frickenhausen - beautiful winemaking centres, liberally sprinkled with ancient buildings
- One of the best-loved stretches of the Romantic Road, including the ‘Liebliches Taubertal’ (Lovely Tauber Valley)
- Rothenburg - a perfectly preserved example of a medieval town
- Dinkelsbühl - a charming town steeped in history
Local Weather
Congratulations ononce again finding routes through beautiful countryside that can be cycled by even the most amateur cyclist. How do you find routes that appear to have a minimum of uphill and a maximum of downhill.
