Very beautiful section of the Danube Cycle Path. Here the rock keeps coming to the surface.

Beautiful view of the Naab estuary.

Great view of the Mattinger slopes from the Danube cycle path.

A very nice view over the Danube to the pilgrimage church of the Assumption of Mary. The church was first mentioned in 1352 as St. Mary's Church. It formerly belonged to the St. Emmeram monastery in Regensburg. Just take a quick stop and capture the beautiful perspectives. It's worth it.

An eye's width of these rocks.

🏛️Historic corner with the Naabspitz (pilgrimage church of the Assumption of Mary) with excellent restaurants 🍳🍺 in Mariaort (Krieger Wirt) and access to all sides of the Naab and Danube via the two bridges. Above the church stretches the Marienhöhe with the Weiherholz, featuring an extensive network of great trails (e.g., bobsleigh run, Halber Herrmann -> see map in photos). On the Mariaort side, the JURA🦕 trails open up along the Naab (e.g., Ho Chi Minh above Ebenwies; dangerous!!). On the Regensburg side, there are bike spare parts (e.g., Zweirad Stadler) and relaxed restaurants (e.g., the "Unter den Linden" inn in the city park or the Walba restaurant 5 km upstream of the Danube in Unter-Irading)! Repair, Relax, Repeat!🍀

The rocks are the so-called Mattinger slopes, which stretch for kilometers along the Danube's embankment and are up to 50 meters high. They are the remains of the Danube breakthrough of the last 160 million years, when the river cut deep into the limestone of the rising Jura Mountains.

The Mattinger Slopes are an extensive 55 hectare nature reserve in Bavaria, in the area of the northernmost point of the Danube. The Mattinger Slopes form the river's bluff, which is very worth seeing with a kilometer-long series of twenty Jurassic rocks up to 50 meters high.
