You are looking for a swift round trip from Volkach along the Main? No problem! Our cycling tour around Würzburg offers you a particularly relaxed cycling holiday experience from Volkach on the Main loop. You follow the Main Cycle Path lined with vineyards, which takes you mostly along the river bank. Along the way you will get to know picturesque wine towns and charming winegrowing villages. Ochsenfurt, the city of towers and the time-honoured residence city of Würzburg are on the itinerary of our cycling tour around Würzburg as well as the Snow White city of Lohr and the hilltop castle in Wertheim. On the Aalberg Cycle Path and the 2-Franconia-Cycle Path you will contest the last, partly very hilly stage of our cycling tour around Würzburg, which will take you back to the heart of Franconian wine-growing in Volkach. Both cycle paths are in no way inferior to your riding experience on the Main. With an average of 80 kilometres per stage, culinary delights are of course not neglected on our cycling tour around Würzburg. Sample full-bodied Franconian wines and indulge in hearty regional specialities.

Day 1: Individual arrival in Volkach
Welcome to your cycling tour around Würzburg! You start in Volkach on the Main Loop. After checking in at your hotel, grab your bike and explore the historic old town. A detour to the pilgrimage church Maria im Weingarten is worthwhile. There you can admire the floating Riemenschneider Madonna. At the end of the day, enjoy a sparkling white wine from the Volkacher Ratsherr vineyard, one of the most famous in Franconia.
Day 2: Volkach - Karlstadt, approx. 90 km
Via Kitzingen and Ochsenfurt, the first stage of your cycling tour around Würzbur takes you first to the old royal seat of Würzburg. The city is dominated by the Marienberg Fortress and the Würzburg Residence, which sit enthroned above the Main River. The imposing Würzburg Cathedral and the Falkenhaus on the market square are also particularly worth seeing. The tour then takes you across the Old Main Bridge to Karlstadt. The picturesque old town is one of the most beautiful on the Main.
Day 3: Karlstadt - Wertheim, approx. 75 km
The Main Cycle Route takes you quickly via Gemünden to Lohr. The town, characterised by countless half-timbered houses, has the nickname Snow White's Town. According to legend, a woman from Lohr was the model for the fairy tale written by the Brothers Grimm. Find out about the story of Snow White in the Spessart Museum, which includes the Talking Mirror among its exhibits. In Wertheim you can experience the castle towering high above the town, whose keep offers an impressive view of the town and the River Main.
Day 4: Wertheim - Würzburg - Volkach, approx. 70 km
Along the Main loop, you cycle back to Bettingen on your cycling tour around Würzburg. On the Aalbach cycle path you will gather charming impressions and get to know the lesser-known sections away from the Main. Take another long break in Würzburg before cycling back to Volkach on the 2-Franken-Radweg (cycle path) across wide open spaces with vegetable and grain fields.
