Danube Cycle Path (Donauradweg) – Passau Promenade

Highlight • Cycleway

Super relaxed bike path along the Danube...
Mostly well developed and not too crowded/driving even on sunny days.
Nevertheless - if you want to go faster you should take the road...

Have fun cycling💪🏼🚴🏼‍♂️

Passau Old Town

Highlight • Settlement

Actually, Passau is a sight. It will not be boring here. The highlight is of course the old town, which is located on a headland almost in the middle of the confluence of the Danube, Ilz and Inn. There are exciting museums, the largest cathedral organ in the world, a glass museum and many beautiful churches. Many restaurants provide for your physical well-being and if you do not feel like a museum, how about a relaxing boat trip across the Danube?

View of Veste Oberhaus

Highlight • Viewpoint

Veste Oberhaus is a castle on the left side of the Danube, opposite the old town of Passau on the right. Founded in 1219, it was for most of the time the castle and residence of the princely bishop of Passau bishopric. Today there is an inn there.
