Every village has its own May Tree (mai baum)

Off road through the forest with lots of thieves

I found a round trip through the (thick) forests of Spessart - a region east of Aschaffenburg and it was really awesome. Spessart is famous in Germany because of the story "Das Wirtshaus im Spessart" by Wilhelm Hauff (and the movie of the 50's of that same story with Liselotte Pulver). The "Wasserschloss Mespelbrunn" is very good preserved and the town of Wertheim has a great castle on top of the mountain.
