A little time out in the Steigerwald
Glashütten-Camping bei Thomas: In Fabrikschleichach in the Steigerwald, you simply pitch your tent in the hosts' garden. Surrounded by forest and hiking trails, plus a fire pit and grill for the evening. If you don't feel like cooking yourself, eat in the beer garden of the adjacent guesthouse; cold drinks are available even after work. In case of rain, there's an alternative under a roof as needed. It's about 47 kilometers to Würzburg. Mornings filled with birdsong, otherwise little organized activities.1

Sights in the area1
Steigerwald
Large deciduous forest ridge in Franconia with quiet forestry and hiking trails; the nature park starts right at the tent line, good for long days on foot or by bike.
Eberhard Trail
Waymarked hiking route through the Steigerwald, running along the Aurach valley where the stream is crossed by an old ford — a half-day walk with little climbing.
Würzburg
Baroque residence city on the Main, about 47 km away; from Marienberg fortress above the vineyards you look down on the old town, the classic for a full day out.
