A beautiful tour peppered with all the details that make a cyclist's heart beat faster.

I rescheduled this tour halfway through the way. The paths directly on the Danube are sometimes just too bad.
Totally muddy or really coarse gravel.
2x was announced to push a few meters.
But 90% of them were beautiful gravel, tarred paths including forest paths.
There are a few short extra loops where I just got lost.
You can stop …

Finally, we're back up in altitude.
And the weather gods have also remembered that it's summer. And don't take the boat to Kehlheim. Further ahead there's a small ferry that will take you and your bike for three instead of seventeen fifty. Then just go over the mountain and you've reached Kehlheim.
