Nature experience between forest, wine and meadows
A family-run wine estate near Donnersdorf in the Steigerwald, four generations at Falkenberg. The pitch overlooks the vineyards, with small fields and forest beyond. During the day you can watch the vintners working among the vines. In the evening, it becomes peaceful. A short walk takes you to Zabelstein with its observation tower; from the top, views stretch far across Franconia. The estate fills water and battery; the farm shop has a Silvaner ready for you. Würzburg is around 40 kilometers away, easily reached by bike heading towards the Mainradweg.1

Sights in the area1
Zabelstein Castle Ruin
The ruin with its lookout tower sits a short walk away; from the platform the view stretches far across the Steigerwald and Franconia's wine country.
Gipssee Bathing Lake
The natural bathing lake near Donnersdorf is the place to cool off on hot summer days, when hiking through the vines gets too warm.
Volkach on the Main Loop
A small wine town on the great bend of the Main, easy to reach by bike via the nearby Main cycle path; the pilgrimage church Maria im Weingarten stands above the vineyards.
Würzburg
About 40 kilometres away, the residence city on the Main with its Baroque palace and the Old Main Bridge; the go-to for a rainy or culture day.
