Start in the morning first along the Regnitz to the Main. This leads you to the Maria Limbach pilgrimage church, which is well worth seeing. Further along the path you will reach Hassfurt. This is where the first vineyards begin, marking the border between beer and wine Franconia. Hassfurt has a beautiful old town that is bordered by the two city towers. The old town hall on the market square dates from the 16th century, the parish church of St. Kilian, one of the works of Tilmto Riemenschneider, 14th century. The Knights' Chapel, also known as the Marienkapelle, is one of the most important late Gothic buildings in Lower Franconia.

Day 4 Volkach - Würzburg, approx. 65 km
Today's stage runs on the flat, well-paved bike path. In this way, Würzburg can be reached quickly and you can go on an individual city tour in the afternoon. Marvel at the market square, the town hall, the old Main Bridge with a view of the fortress and pilgrimage church, and the rococo facade of the Falcon House. The highlight is the former prince-bishop's residence, which was built between 1720 and 1744 according to plans by Balthasar Neumann and is today one of the most beautiful palace buildings of the southern German baroque due to its unity.
