September 7, 2024,1. Etappe: Fünf-Flüsse-Radweg Neumarkt - Riedenburg

The first stage goes from Neumarkt to Riedenburg

The cycle path is varied, you just shouldn't assume that it always goes along a canal or a river; because this is by no means the case. You'll rather touch them now and then and otherwise spend a lot of time in the fields or through the town.

August 5, 2025,Von Neumarkt i. d. OPf. - Riedenburg

Given the weather forecast (rain starting midday), we were in the saddle at 8:30 today and rode along the Ludwig-Danube-Main Canal again, which looks much nicer in the sunshine. Then we rode along the Sulz, Altmühl, and the Main-Danube Canal. Now we're sitting in Riedenburg, waiting for the rain with a cold drink. 🙂

So far the most beautiful section of the 5 rivers cycle path. Unfortunately it rained all day. Sometimes very strong.

June 17, 2025,8. Riedenburg - Neumarkt in der Oberpfalz

While having breakfast on the sunny balcony of our vacation apartment, we first calculated how many kilometers we had left until we'd "completed the loop."

Approximately 135 kilometers, so we decided to do it in two days. Neumarkt in der Oberpfalz was our destination today.

September 13, 2024,2024-09-13 5FRA - Etappe 5: Riedenburg - Neumarkt

The 5-rivers cycle path has been completed😉According to Komoot, in the last 5 days it was 338 km, only 1380 meters of elevation. An easy tour without any significant climbs. It was beautiful and the weather was also quite good 👍🏻🤗

June 20, 2025,🚴‍♀️🚴‍♂️Riedenburg ➡️ Beilngries ➡️ Mühlhausen ➡️ Neumarkt (Oberpfalz)

Another very dusty but beautiful ride, with many other cyclists coming towards us and overtaking us 🚴‍♀️🚴‍♂️, due to yesterday's public holiday and the Whitsun holidays in Bavaria. The bike path is 70% paved gravel. The many beautiful little towns are worth visiting.
