April 6, 2024,Eventyr Tag 5: Illertissen - Ulm

Relaxed and quiet stage from Illertissen to Ulm. Mainly along the Iller on beautiful, well-maintained forest paths.
The path was closed in places, but the detour was well signposted. Otherwise you can just go straight along the river.
It's a good place to take a break at the mouth of the Danube.

I'm camping with my nephews today. We rode the Iller cycle path from Ulm to Illertissen, which was really fun.
It is a very good cycle path for children because it is largely car-free.
