The ice cream parlor in Bad Mergentheim was recommended to us - and rightly so. Ice cream there is really delicious.
I really liked the tour in terms of the landscape.
The church in Lauda is particularly magnificent.
The historic Annotopia games were just in Bad Mergentheim. There you could see a lot of great historical costumes.

A very beautiful bike path, paved throughout at this point. It runs along the Tauber River and offers many beautiful places to linger on both sides.

Definitely worth a detour.

DAY 6: Markelsheim - Werbach
On the last two stages, we take some wind out of our sails💨🏁, because in the Taubertal one attraction chases the next. After just 2 km we put the bike aside for the ascent to Neuhaus Castle. At the latest for a stroll around Bad Mergentheim Castle, it stops again.🛍 Then the tire rolls as …

Spontaneous rounds between office work and looking after grandchildren. There was still no sign of the Sahara dust, but my lungs tried again to free themselves from the last cold... it's taking longer, but it's slowly getting better. In the next few days, due to the weather, more hiking will be the order of the day.

I dedicated my stopover at home to "Bike Day" with this short tour. The main idea in these difficult times is to convince more commuters of the advantages of cycling to get to work (at least in the milder months of the year). The cycle path structure between the towns of MGH and TBB is not the worst prerequisite for …

Today we cycled along a beautiful bike path. 👍😍

The Tauber Valley Cycle Path between Bad Mergentheim and Tauberbischofsheim is rightly a popular section of the "Lovely Tauber Valley" and offers a scenic route along the Tauber River. The tour is about 20 km long and leads through a diverse region with vineyards, meadows, and small villages.

December 16, 2023,Bad Mergentheim-Tauberbischofsheim-Weikersheim-#Auf der Suche nach Glühwein (16.12.23P)

After endless weeks of abstinence.... finally pedaled again through the Taubertal. At times the sun even appeared. However, it wasn't just the wine that was glowing today. The “Schober-grandchildren” also burned. There's no need for a fiery fire tomorrow for the 3rd Azfenz wreath candle. Nevertheless - it was great!
