Maps and trails
Großostheim is known for its historical sights such as Johannisburg Castle or the 14th century St. Peter and Paul Church. Another highlight is the Main cycle path, which runs directly through the town and invites cyclists to take a picturesque tour along the Main.

Culture enthusiasts should definitely visit the "Alte Post" museum, where they can learn more about the history of the region. For music lovers, there is the renowned annual jazz festival "Jazz Ostheimer", which attracts visitors from all over the world.

When it comes to culinary delights, we recommend a visit to the weekly market or the numerous restaurants offering regional specialities such as asparagus or game dishes as well as delicious apple wine.

For outdoor activities, a hike in the Spessart Nature Park or even a canoe trip on the Main River during the warm season is a must. In winter, on the other hand, the skiing area on the Geiersberg with its slopes and cross-country skiing trails is a lure.

But what to do if it rains? Don't worry! In Großostheim there are many ways to stay active indoors: from an indoor playground to a cinema - everyone will find something suitable here!

All in all, Großostheim is definitely worth a trip and a perfect destination for anyone who loves nature, culture and good food. We hope that this guide has given you some useful tips and that we will be able to welcome you to Großostheim soon!

    angenehme Sonntagstour, für Mömlinger sehr gut geeignet 😁. Start am Grüngutplatz, so hat man die Steigung an den Bauernhöfen gleich zu Beginn, dann der Karte hier folgen. Keine nennenswerten Anstiege mehr, dafür schattige Wege. 35° Temperatur sind zwar anstrengend aber durchaus machbar. Wird auf jeden Fall im Herbst nochmal gemacht.

    Fahre sonst eher Strecken wie die Mö1, Mi1, MIL1 usw, da ich eine Runde mit der Frau fahren wollte, haben wir die Mö2 ausprobiert. Technisch und konditionell bei weitem nicht so anspruchsvoll wie die oben genannten Strecken aber genau deshalb auch eine tolle Alternative für „Anfänger“. Hat aber trotzdem mehr Spaß gemacht, als erwartet. Super Streckenführung 👍

    Für den Abstecher zur Pflaumheimer Grotte muss man die teilweise stark befahrene Mömlinger Straße überqueren, die durch Leitplanken gesichert ist! Für Kinderwagen nicht geeignet.

    Eine sehr schöne, abwechslungsreiche Runde durch Hohlwege, Wald, über Weinberge, vorbei an kleinen Kapellen, durch die Wolfsschlucht zur Mariengrotte und immer wieder schönen Ausblicken ins Umland. Sehr empfehlenswert.

    Toller Wanderweg, der auf mehrere Etappen individuell eingeplant werden kann. Vor allem die Aussichten vom terroir f-Aussichtspunkt in Klingenberg sind traumhaft! www.jungwandern.de/fraenkischer-rotwein-wanderweg/
