Kipfenberg Castle and the Michelsberg as seen from the cycle path, with the Altmühl in the foreground - it is of course also worth driving into Kipfenberg or up to the castle.

Beilngries Old Town

Highlight • Settlement

Beilngries is a popular destination for the Altmühltal Panoramaweg and the Altmühl cycle path. Idyllically located on the Altmühl the cyclist can take a well earned break here. The first documentary mention took place in 1007. There is much to discover, such as: For example, Hirschberg Castle, the Church of St. Walburga, half-timbered houses and historic aircraft at the airfield Beilngries.
A variety of restaurants and accommodation round off the offer.

Beilngries boasts a beautiful old town that invites you to stroll around. Hirschberg Castle is another highlight. This building, now used as a conference center, sits perched on a mountain spur high above the town. The castle courtyard is open to the public and well worth a visit.

Another interesting attraction in Beilngries is the Brewery Museum, located in an underground rock labyrinth.

Admission is five euros. The museum is open every Sunday from 10:30 a.m. from April to October 31st. In August, it is also open on Thursdays.

In summer, the Kratzmühlsee is a great bathing lake. The Altmühl cycle path is completely problem-free. In Kinding there is a beautiful fortified church. The detour to the Hirschberg is quite steep directly from Beilngries, so it's the other way around. Beilngries itself has a very beautiful old town. …
