How do I find the perfect destination in Franconia?
You're probably familiar with the problem: the work week is coming to an end, the weather is forecast for the weekend, and all you want to do is treat yourself to a few days off. But where is the best place to go and what is really worth it? How do I find the perfect day trip destination in Franconia? That's not an easy question to answer, and finding the perfect day trip destination is even more difficult. After all, this is supposed to be a time of relaxation and recharging your batteries. And there are so many options. We were faced with this question last weekend. We were at our wits' end and we really wanted to get out again, see something new, and simply spend a few varied and interesting days in the sun and in beautiful surroundings that would make us want to work again.
The perfect destination in Franconia call us tourist offices
When we plan such tours well in advance, we usually do so through the local tourist offices, to whom we give a rough idea of what we have in mind for our tour. They then usually give us a few suggestions about what we can do locally. Last weekend, however, it was a spontaneous idea and we initially had no idea where the trip would go. Finding the perfect excursion destination in Franconia has to be done quickly.
So we started to narrow it down: we wanted an "autumnal" experience, the destination should not be too far away and should give us enough time to experience the local conditions intensively. Of course, we didn't want to neglect the culinary delights either, and because late summer temperatures were forecast again, we didn't want to spend the time in a museum or a building, but wanted to enjoy the days outdoors. Since we have already been to Franconia several times this year and we liked the area, we quickly found our destination. But where to now? Autumn has something to do with wine, and wine usually guarantees enjoyment. There is a wide selection of the perfect excursion destination in Franconia.
The perfect excursion destination in Franconia can be found via travel guides
And because we had learned to appreciate the romance of the half-timbered architecture on our last tours through Franconia, we wanted to experience it again on our short trip. They are the perfect day trip destination in Franconia. But how do you find these villages? Quite simply: we pulled out the travel guide Franken * (Advertisement) from the bookshelf and got advice from there. We finally found what we were looking for in the “Franconian Wine Country”: Our two-day tour took us to the Main, whose banks are densely covered with vines.
The villages we drove through couldn't be more beautiful, with their beautifully decorated and well-kept half-timbered houses, the wineries that advertised the winemakers' local products everywhere, and the gourmet restaurants. In these, regional and international dishes competed with the refreshing wines of Franconia. And we also found these based on the recommendations in our travel guide, which even suggests certain dishes for each restaurant. And best of all: the travel guide helps us on site with detailed maps, background information for places we hadn't previously considered, and expert knowledge of the region that explains connections to us that we hadn't thought about before our trip.
Armed with this information, we come back saturated with new and beautiful impressions from the Franconian wine country. Filled with the great food from the Franconian cuisine and one or two good wines from the wineries in the Main Valley, with the intention of repeating this - or a similar - experience as soon as possible.
