Bamberg is always worth a trip – but cycling there turns the journey itself into an experience. Ride over gentle hills and through the Franconian countryside to the UNESCO World Heritage city, which, with its medieval old town, impressive cathedral, and romantic Regnitz riverbank, is one of the most beautiful cities in Germany. Stroll through the old town, marvel at the Old Town Hall in the middle of the river, and savor the history at the Bamberg Cathedral.

Only one place deserves the crowning finale: the legendary Schlenkerla on Dominikanerstraße. Here you drink probably the most famous beer of Franconia – the malty, deeply spicy smoked beer, whose recipe has remained unchanged for centuries. Anyone who has sat here once understands why Bamberg is the world city of beer.
