Again and again there are bridges over the canal, often separated by bicycle and pedestrian path, as well as car lanes. There are very beautiful paths on both banks of the canal, which are ideal for cycling, hiking, jogging or other physical activities. The Main-Danube Canal (MDK) itself is an approximately 171-kilometer-long federal waterway that connects the Main near Bamberg with the Danube near Kelheim. The MDK was built between 1960 and 1992.

From time to time you can see passenger or cargo ships sailing along the canal. You have a very nice view of the surrounding panorama from a bridge.
