The concept and philosophy of the Steigerwald Center are to make sustainability tangible through the example of forest management and wood use. The Steigerwald region with its natural resources should be preserved and further developed.

June 19, 2025, Rund um den Zabelstein, Graveltour

First test tour for our eMTBs, just under 50km. Lots of paved forest trails and a few meters of elevation gain in the Steigerwald forest, just under 2:30 hours, so there's still room for improvement for the next tours. Special tip: At kilometer 2.5, there's a Franconian wine vending machine, selling screw-top wines and glasses for a €5 deposit, but you have to take it to the winery. If you start the tour in the east, you'll have a great intermediate destination!
