<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\nCombine two of the country's most popular cycle routes to create a unique journey through Bavaria's natural and cultural landscapes. Along the leisurely flowing Altm\u00fchl, the slowest river in Germany, you will discover the mysterious valley of the \"Ur-Danube\" - a geological jewel that has carved its way through the Franconian Alb since the uplift of the Alps. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The little-known Wellheimer Trockental, also known as the \"Urdonautal\", forms the heart of this tour - a quiet, impressive nature experience off the beaten track.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You cross three charming valleys on comfortable, car-free and flat cycle paths. Your journey begins in the historic cathedral city of Eichst\u00e4tt<\/a> and continues to cultural highlights such as the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Regensburg, the imposing Liberation Hall and the Benedictine monastery of Weltenburg<\/a> with its legendary beer garden right on the riverbank. <\/p>\n\n\n\n The crowning glory is the old royal seat of Neuburg an der Donau - with its magnificent palace, the baroque palace pharmacy and the court and study church, which impressively combine history and architecture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n We book for you very good, regionally typical hotels of 3*** and 4****- category.<\/p>\n\n\n\n A daily breakfast buffet or large cyclist's breakfast is included in the price.
