We offer this tour for ambitious, sporty cyclists: The entire experience of the Danube cycle path from source to the mouth of the Inn River. Enjoy the variety of natural landscapes and cities, important cultural sites and charming small towns, and see the Danube grow slowly from a small stream to a great river.

Individual arrival in Donaueschingen
The Brigach and Breg Black Forest rivers join to form the Danube near the town, but even the Romans thought the river’s source was located in the park of the Fürstenberg castle. The castle built in the Belle Epoch style is a testament to the importance of the Fürstenberg family and has an excellent natural history collection and important paintings and sculptures from the modern period. 
Overnight stay in Donaueschingen

Donaueschingen - Beuron (ca. 63 km)
The first stage leads you through the so-called "Baar" landscape. In Immendingen you will be able to visit an important natural phenomenon: the sinking of the Danube. Here the river disappears beneath the porous chalk rock for the majority of the year and instead of flowing to the Black Sea, flows towards Lake Constance and finally into the Rhein and to the North Sea.  After Tuttlingen, the valley begins to narrow and you will reach the town of Beuron with its famous Benedictine monastery. 
Overnight stay in Beuron

Beuron - Riedlingen (ca. 62 km)
After breakfast you will cycle along the Danube between steep cliff faces topped with castles and reach the old town of Sigmaringen. From here on the landscape becomes gentler and charming and with beautiful views over Upper Swabia you will reach today’s destination; Riedlingen. This route was travelled not only by the Romans but also by Emperor Barbarossa.
Overnight stay Riedlingen

Riedlingen - Ulm (ca. 67-73 km)
You will cycle along the Danube until you reach the village of Zwiefalten with its beautiful castle. In Obermarchtal you will see the oldest Baroque church in Upper Swabia and the "Crane town" Ehingen with its Liebherr-manufacturing plants. You now have the choice here to either follow the Danube further or to take the somewhat longer, but beautiful route above the Blautal (blue valley).
Overnight stay in Ulm

Ulm - Donauwörth (ca. 92 km)
The first stage leads along asphalt or gravelled paths to Donauwörth. The villages are mainly located somewhat off the beaten track on hills protected from the river floodwaters. Those who wish can take a break in one of the well maintained villages. In Donauwörth, the former most important trade route between Nürnberg and Augsburg crosses over the Danube. The majestic town houses testify to the historical significance of the town. 
Overnight stay  in Donauwörth

Donauwörth - Ingolstadt (ca. 63 km)
Today, the tour continues along good quality paths. Shortly before Marxheim you will reach the foothills of the Swabian Alps which will make cycling more interesting with gentle hills.  You shouldn’t miss a visit to the old town of Neuburg before you continue on to Ingolstadt. The town is known as the home town of Audi but the town has much more to offer than just factory buildings. The Mobile Museum is worth a visit. Or take a stroll through the old town within the old fortification walls. 
Overnight stay in Ingolstadt

Ingolstadt - Regensburg (ca. 85 km)
The tour leads mainly directly through the Danube floodplains alongside the river. Near Bad Gögging you will reach the ancient Roman cultural landscape, in Weltenburg the famous monastery and the majestic Danube Gap. You will continue on along the Danube, crossing over from the left to right banks Regensburg, the best preserved large German town which has recently been declared a UNESCO world heritage site.
Overnight stay in Regensburg

Regensburg - Bogen (ca. 63 km)
Shortly after the beginning of this stage you shouldn’t shy away from the demanding climb to Walhalla. It is a replica of the Pantheon on the Acropolis, which Ludwig I. built in 1842. Your journey then continues along the Danube, which now meanders lazily along the broad plains. Passing through the main town of the so-called "Gäuboden" landscape Straubing, you will cycle on to Bogen, which became famous due to the pregnant Madonna found there in 1104.
Overnight stay in Bogen

Bogen - Passau (ca. 86 km)
 The last stage of your trip goes through remote areas until you reach Deggendorf, the gate to the Bavarian Forest. The old town is worth a visit. The trip continues on past the Niederaltaich Monastery, which was engulfed by flames 13 times in the past century.  You will then continue on cycling through Vilshofen and will reach your destination; the three river city and former bishops’ residence of Passau. Discover the Danube, Inn and Ilz by boat and finish off your trip with a walk through the old town or a visit to the Feste Oberhaus fortress museum.
Overnight stay in Passau

Individual return home
After breakfast you travel with the train back to Donaueschingen or back home or we would be more than happy to extend your stay along the Danube cycle route.
