Cycling tour Danube & Altmuehl valley
Roundtrip from Regensburg, 7 days / 6 nights from EUR 529
The Tour

This tour combines some of the most beautiful towns and cities along the German Danube with the most beautiful section of the Altmühl. The Altmühl nature park is one of Bavaria’s most popular cycling regions for good reason - not least because of its stunning lime cliffs and typical juniper heather. Regensburg’s historic centre is a UNESCO world heritage site and certainly warrants an extension of one or several nights. This cycling tour along the Danube and Altmühl covers easy terrain and in thus suitable for expert cyclists and novices alike.
