The Gaubahn cycle path is a cycle path in Tauberfranken that is around 37 kilometers long. Around 26 kilometers of this runs along the route of the former Gaubahn. It connects the Main cycle path near Ochsenfurt with the Taubertal cycle path near Bieberehren.
History
Between 1907 and 1992, until it was closed, the Gaubahn connected the Tauber and Main valleys.[1] On May 3, 1992, the last passenger train ran on the railway line. In 1994, the dismantling of the tracks began, before the expansion of the cycle path began in 1996. Between 2010 (Acholshausen - Baldersheim) and 2011 (Ochsenfurt - Acholshausen and Baldersheim - Bieberehren), the former track bed was asphalted.
Route profile and characteristics
The Gaubahn cycle path runs on the disused Gaubahn route from Ochsenfurt in the Main valley to Röttingen in the Tauber valley without any major gradients. The cycle path is asphalted along the entire route and is easy to ride on.
