Stockstadt a.Main can be planned from two different perspectives: the Kulturweg leads from the cemetery through Stockstadt and has stops at the Zollhaus and in the Siedlung. The Waldschwimmbad offers a different focus. It was built in 1967 and has eight competition-standard lanes, each 50 metres long, as well as a non-swimmer pool with several attractions, including a long water slide. This gives you both a route with named stops and a swimming pool with a range of pool facilities to consider when planning your stay.

Main-Spessart: scenery, hiking trails and culture
In the wider destination of Main-Spessart, vineyards, water and woodland come together to create an appealing holiday area. The Spessart Nature Park is suitable for short walks as well as multi-day hikes. The Main Hiking Trail is around 500 kilometres long; just under 100 kilometres of it run through the district of Main-Spessart, linking Karlstadt, Gemünden a.Main, Lohr a.Main, Rothenfels and Marktheidenfeld. This range extends from shorter walks to a long-distance route with a section in the district. The Spessart trails carry the “Wanderbares Deutschland” quality seal.
The cultural sites in Main-Spessart also offer a range of different highlights. The old town of Karlstadt, surrounded by walls, towers and gates, was founded around 1200; buildings and structures there have survived for more than seven centuries. Aschfeld Fortified Church is a 15th-century refuge and defensive castle. Parts of its fortifications are now used as museum rooms. The “Die gute alte Zeit zum Anfassen” collection presents historic defensive weapons as well as rural life and work. At the Homburg Paper Mill Museum, production facilities from the 19th and 20th centuries have been fully and authentically preserved, along with the paper-making family’s living quarters and a demonstration workshop. A fifth-generation hand papermaking workshop still produces fine handmade paper there today. Main-Spessart thus brings together historic town structures, military history and papermaking as distinct cultural-history themes.
