Sports ground camping
Heinrichsthal is considered the highest municipality in the Spessart, and the cool air lives up to it. The site belongs to the sports ground, with pitches on the meadow by the playground or on the gravel car park next to it. Those who prefer sleeping outdoors will find a shelter for hammocks or bivouacs in the middle of the forest. Two long-distance hiking trails are nearby: the Eselsweg and the Birkenhainer Straße. Birdsong in the morning, otherwise quiet. Downhill to the Main valley towards Klingenberg am Main.1

Sights in the area1
Eselsweg
Ancient ridge trail across the Spessart heights, once a salt route. The entry point is right nearby, good for a long day's stage through the woods.
Birkenhainer Straße
The second long-distance trail through the Spessart, an age-old ridgeway. The markers are reliable, you get far even without a map.
Klingenberg am Main
Small winegrowers' town on the river with red sandstone and timber framing. A day trip down in the Main valley when the forest gets too quiet.
Miltenberg am Main
Old town at the bend of the Main with a historic bridge across the river. Best by bike along the water, flatter than any Spessart tour.
