The R3 follows in the footsteps of the episcopal grape courier from Fulda - from the vineyards in the Rheingau to the Rhön. He was late in 1775, leading to the discovery of the Spätlese late vintage wine. The journey offers you riverside views of Frankfurt am Main, Wiesbaden and Offenbach am Main. Behind Philippsruhe Castle in Hanau, the Kinzig Valley opens up into the Spessart. Cycling is strenuous here, especially on the Fulda ridge. The Milseburg route forms part of the R3. It is predominantly flat and takes you across 14 bridges along the former Rhön railway line. You'll pass through the 1.2-kilometre Milseburg tunnel on your way (closed from November to March).
