Make sure you have plenty of gas in the tank, because Bayreuth is well worth a detour. Situated 35 miles from Ploessberg, it’s home to a few fabulous attractions, such as Bayreuth Festival Theater and Margrave’s Opera House. Nuremberg is another road-trip destination to consider. It’s located just 60 miles away. If you make the journey here, Nuremberg Castle and Nuremberg Zoo should be on your must-do list.
