Prunn Castle photo spot

Highlight • Viewpoint

There is a wonderful view of Prunn Castle from the bridge and from the shore in Einthal. You should definitely stop for a moment and enjoy the view of the proud weir high above the Altmühl.

Essing Bridge Gatehouse

Highlight • Bridge

The entrance gate to Essing over the 46 m long wooden bridge, today an admired historical monument and photo motif. The round arches are clearly visible on the town hall square.

A very photogenic place with an idyllic setting of a wooden bridge, the Altmühl and Essing rivers, with its houses built directly against the Jura rock face.

Great way through the forest, very easy but a lot of fun in summer because it's a bit cooler.

View of Weltenburg Abbey

Highlight • Viewpoint

A very nice view of the other side of the Danube and the great Weltenburg monastery. Here you also have a little peace from the tourist crowds.
