Birkensee (Schwanberg)

Highlight • Lake

It is interesting that the water supply to the Birkensee has not yet been discovered. I like the island very much and there is also seating with a table for a picnic. Just take a seat and enjoy.

Beautifully landscaped bike path right along the Main. In general, rather quiet section (compared to the promenades between Kitzingen and Würzburg). Several benches with a beautiful view and a Kneippanlage Dettelbach invite you to a stopover.

The Birkensee was created by the Celts as a water reservoir for humans and animals. It is idyllically situated in the forest and invites you to linger and explore.
