Bizarre rock formations line the course of the river through a landscape of unique beauty. In the center of all this lies the "capital of the Altmühltal", Eichstätt. Artificially created biotopes and beautiful backwaters flank the canal. Picturesque towns and excellently preserved castles lie on the banks. The best examples of this are the three-castle town of Riedenburg and Prunn Castle.

Short tour 3 days/4 nights

We really enjoyed the tour, everything worked out. Especially the version tailored to our needs. The overnight locations met our expectations, as did the hotels. The only thing was that the bikes were a bit cumbersome. Very heavy, the drive was sluggish and there was no small gear ratio for steep inclines. These are rare, but they do happen. We still enjoyed it a lot, the old town of Weissens arg was great for us. Thank you for the good organization.
