March 25, 2025,An der Donau entlang - Kloster Weltenburg-Forrest Trail-Donau💦Uferweg

The second tour of my short break took me along the Danube to the Weltenburg Monastery Brewery, past breathtaking rock formations. From above, I was lucky with the weather and stayed dry with a pleasant 14 degrees throughout the day. From below, things looked a bit different; due to yesterday's rain, the trails were wet, muddy, and slushy.
