On this trip you should have a designated driver!

Start the morning with a drive to the ornate Pilgrimage church of Vierzehnheiligen. As it is afternoon somewhere in this world the brewery on the hill behind the church might be the stop for the first beer (They might let you take the glass for the cost of the deposit).

On to Bamberg, which we consider one of the most charming cities in the area. Make sure you at least try the Rauchbier (smoked beer). As local meal specialty we suggest a “Schäuferle” (roast from a part of the Boston Pork shoulder butt)

For more info visit our website.


In Forchheim the main attraction is the Kellerwald.


For Dinner of the local fare ( Schnitzel or a Brotzeit) and a beer we recommend a stop at the Krug Brewery in Breitenlesau.
