Guided Tours and Tastings for Groups

Let the experts show you the hidden treasures along Fünf-Seidla-Steig!

If you want to hike along and don`t want to organise the tour by yourself our partners will provide you with the necessary plans. They can acquire the reservations for meals in the restaurants and accompany your group on chosen subjects you want to experience. For some breweries guided visits can be booked directly when requesting a tour guide.
Some of our partners can also arrange a day tour or even short holiday in the region  – „Fränkische Schweiz“ (Franconian Switzerland) and offer qualified travel company for e. g. bus tours. Those contacts are noted at the BOTTOM of this page.
Please take into account that not all of our tour guides are multilingual – in most cases you would need a translator.

Big groups – please note that making a reservation is hardly possible on the weekends because of the other groups hiking. Please change to weekdays if possible! Friday is the best day for visiting all of our brewery inns – usually all of them are open.

Here some subjects to choose from at a guided tour:

Brewery Culture

Along the route you walk past historical sites of a very old brewing tradition. Guides explain those buildings and how specifically in this region a distinct brewing culture was established and what makes the brewing handcraft skills of today.

Natural & Cultivated Landscape

Fünf-Seidla-Steig leads through a “so to speak” little paradise consisting of woods, meadows, fields and fruit tree gardens. You will get told about the landscape characteristics and the agricultural use along the route, as well as about the special features of cultivating the crops for beer making.

Culture: History of Sites and Settlement with Historical Buildings

Along Fünf-Seidla-Steig you will not only find beautiful scenery. Many buildings and characteristics of the landscape give witness to the different periods of settlement. Along the way there are three churches, the site of a former monastery, the Gräfenberg market square with its town houses – and even the Gräfenberg station has some kind of history.

Plants & Herbs along the Route

Agrimony, yarrow and St. John’s wort: On a guided tour you will find out all about with the currently visible and blooming herbs in the woods and meadows. Please be sure to bring a good translator!
