Cycle tour along the Bavarian Danube
Donauwörth - Passau in 8 days / 7 nights from EUR 529
The Tour

The landscapes along the Bavarian Danube are magnificent, as is the Danube Cycle Path. The impressive natural landscape of the Danube Gorge and the exciting cities of Ingolstadt, Regensburg and Passau alternate to the rhythm of your bike pedals. Stop in one of the countless rustic beer gardens for a snack with pretzels, Radi (Bavarian radish) and Obatzda (cheese dip). This cycle tour along the bavarian danube is easy to cycle, but you should definitely take your time! You can book extra nights in all locations.


Day 1 Arrival in Donauwörth

Day 3 Ingolstadt - Kelheim, 50 km / 31 mi + boat trip
The bike tour takes you through hop fields to Weltenburg, which is home to the oldest monastery brewery in the world. Steep and narrow limestone walls with names like ‘Napoleons Reisekoffer’ (Napoleon's suitcase) border the Danube Gorge.
Day 4 Kelheim - Regensburg, approx. 35 km / 22 mi
