Set off from the fairytale old town of Rothenburg ob der Tauber, known for its perfectly preserved medieval walls and cobblestone streets. Your ride winds southeast across the rolling Franconian and Bavarian countryside, connecting charming villages and open fields. The route is about 205 km and takes you over nearly 2,000 meters in elevation—expect some steady climbs and rewarding descents along the way.

You’ll spend most of your journey on paved surfaces, with a mix of quiet country roads and bike paths, so it’s pretty comfortable for a long ride. There are some gravel patches here and there to keep things interesting (nothing too tricky), and you’ll mostly avoid busy streets.

The last leg brings you into Regensburg, a UNESCO World Heritage Site famed for its medieval stone bridge and gothic cathedral right on the banks of the Danube. Enjoy a well-earned break at a riverside café—this is one of southern Germany’s most vibrant historic cities, so take time to soak it all in at the finish line!
