A wonderful hiking and adventure trail in the shade, so well walkable in the summer heat. If you keep your eyes open, you can discover many little wonders - but unfortunately Schloss Landestrost is not.

February 12, 2023,Wanderung Donauhänge Günzburg

Beautiful, top signposted round through the Danube meadows and forests. Didn't get much sun, but the journey is the goal. Almost no one on the go, probably everyone skiing in the Allgäu .... So the right thing to clear your head. Only birdsong and splashing from the water. And..... No traffic jams on the way home😁

A section of the premium hiking trail, which leads over 60km along the Danube. The first stage was beautiful and the stop at the beer garden "Donau-Radler-Tankstelle" was more than appropriate given the temperatures 😅 …

November 12, 2022,Am "großen Griesle See" – Vogelparadies auf der Donau Runde von Reisensburg

This was a foggy round on the Danube. We selected the tour from the Komoot hiking suggestions. There were no birds at this time of the year, but we saw endless beaver bite marks.
