Main hiking trail
The Main hiking trail leads 490 km from the source of the White Main on the Ochsenkopf in the Fichtel Mountains to the mouth of the Main near Mainz . The path was opened in 1971 and leads through scenic hiking areas such as the Fichtel Mountains , Franconian Switzerland , Haßberge , the Steigerwald , the Spessart and the Odenwald .
The long-distance hiking trail is marked with a blue "M".
On sections of the route, the route is identical to other routes that are more recent, e.g. B. the Franconian Marienweg (area Würzburg and Karlstadt ) or the Franconian red wine path (area Klingenberg ).
