Bad Orb

Nestled in the magnificent Spessart landscape, Bad Orb offers the best conditions for a short, relaxing break, a gourmet holiday or an active holiday.

In Bad Orb, hikers will find the best conditions for an unforgettable hiking holiday with a well-marked and well-maintained network of hiking trails.

Even the names of the individual tours sound enticing: Himmelsleiter, Tränenbrückchen, Grenzsteinweg, Bad Orber Fernsicht or Eselswegrunde. In Bad Orb, every hiking enthusiast will find the right offer - from small, manageable walks, relaxed panoramic hikes to extensive, challenging day tours. On 17 routes with a length of three to 21 kilometres, the unspoilt nature of the Spessart can be discovered again and again.

The trail network also has many a surprise and sight in store along the routes. On circular trail 14, for example, you first go to the "Eschenkar" wetland biotope - a renaturalised moor landscape where rare and endangered animal species have settled. A wooden footbridge leads through the moor, from which visitors can make undisturbed observations of nature. The journey of discovery continues to the "WaldVerWortung". At first it is not clear what the artist intended by painting the trees. But once you have found the right point of view, the solution is not far away.

The idyllic Hasel valley with its forest stage surrounded by the quarry, where performances take place in summer, is another tour that nature lovers must do.
Hiking enthusiasts are also rewarded with impressive views and wonderful experiences of nature on the premium hiking trail "Spessartbogen " or the quality trail "Spessartweg 3".

Nestled in one of the most densely wooded regions in Germany, there is also plenty to discover for cyclists and mountain bikers.

Whether you want to cycle leisurely along the romantic Kinzig river, conquer the heights of the Spessart on an e-bike or go sporty on a mountain bike - from Bad Orb you can explore the beauty of our region on a new tour every day.

In the summer months, a bus shuttle takes those without a bike to the heights of the Vogelsberg and Wetterau. From there you can cycle comfortably back to Bad Orb along the Vogelsberg Südbahnradweg or Vulkanradweg.

Mountain bike enthusiasts also get their money's worth in Bad Orb. 22 tours, 650 kilometres of trail and more than 15,000 metres of altitude: Whether pleasure-oriented leisure biker or ambitious athlete, whether beginner or expert mountain biker - on the sophisticated tour network and the certified Flowtrail, everyone can measure their fitness and riding strength.

And don't worry if your battery gives out: In the Spessart, you'll find Germany's largest area-wide charging station network with over 80 charging stations, where you can recharge your e-bike at.
