    Hiking

    The Main, the most important river in northern Bavaria, does not have a single source, but arises at the confluence of the Red and White Maines. While the White Main springs in the Fichtelgebirge below the Ochsenkopf, the Red Main begins its run in the southern district of Bayreuth.
    West of the city of Kulmbach below Schloss Steinenhausen, the two source rivers to the Main, which in contrast to the South Bavarian Danube, flows into the North Sea.

    This is a nice place for a rest with a small picnic for the whole family. This is where the Red and White Main meet, which can be seen from the bridge over the river. Highly recommended!

    At Castle Steinenhausen, Red and White Main unite to the main right tributary of the Rhine - the Main.
    Since a short time a bridge leads over the place of the confluence and thus one can also attend the "birth" of the Main as a cyclist.
