Plan for Day 10: Karlsruhe to Mannheim: 56.8 miles

Day 10: Karlsruhe to Mannheim

A day very similar to the previous one. The Rhine meanders a lot in this region, which will lead to some difficult route finding.

Starting from Karlsruhe, I'll cross over to the left bank and head up to Speyer. The Speyer Cathedral was famous in the middle ages and hosted one of the famous Diets of the Holy Roman Empire in the early days of Martin Luther. I'll continue on to the city of Mannheim, likely reaching it sometime in mid afternoon. That should give some time to explore the old city and the castle.
