Dietfurt Town Hall

Highlight • Monument

Actually a very nice place with wonderfully restored houses. The fountain also comes into its own. The very heavy traffic is annoying. Unfortunately, the catering is also neglected. But it wouldn't be fun even with the traffic.

Old Weir on the Altmühl

Highlight • Structure

The old canal is romantic and very natural, with small tree-lined avenues and the old locks! It recreates the atmosphere of bygone times.

Altmühl-Altmühlkanal is scenically beautiful. Beilngries is the jewel of the Altmühl valley

The route was 3.1km longer, Komoot stopped recording for a short time.

You have to motivate yourself somehow. Since we forgot the mustard at home for our dinner, we just went for a quick shopping trip. Yes, we would have gotten it very close too. But it doesn't make any sense, does it? Not ideal weather, but still outside. It was nice! ☀️🚴🌳

Forgot to turn off the Komot after the starting point. Lost 3 kilometers.

There is nothing better than these excellent cycle paths. The weather was good and there was a small hand ferry where we crossed a branch of the Altmühl.

The weather calmed down a bit and we quickly got on our bikes. We started in Riedenburg and drove along the Altmühl to Dietfurt with its pretty old town and the Chinese fountain. After coffee and cake we went back with a detour to Mühlbach with its romantic church and its spring pot of a typical karst spring.

Did the second tour today.
First great weather and swimming in the bathing lake St. Aghatha.
Then caught in a thunderstorm.
