View of Ulm Minster and the Fishermen's Quarter from the Danube Bank

Highlight • Viewpoint

The Danube bank described here is on the Neu-Ulm (Bavarian) side of the river, but offers a spectacular view of Ulm's fishing district with the cathedral towering behind it. It's easy to drive, but it's also very busy. Therefore, please drive with the necessary consideration.

Ulm City Wall

Highlight • Historical Site

Above the wall and down wide paths, which results in a very pretty promenade that pedestrians and cyclists easily share in the lower area.

View of Ulm Skyline from the Danube

Highlight • Viewpoint

You have the best view of the Ulm skyline with the highest church tower in the world from the bank of the Danube on the Neu-Ulm side. It is worth crossing the river and enjoying the view before or after the tour of the old town.

Danube Riverside Path

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Beautiful gravel roads, most of which are easy to drive on. I recommend a good map (I use a download map on my phone here). The signposted Danube Cycle Path leads away from the Danube again and again. Sometimes it pays to stay on the Danube.

Ulm Town Hall

Highlight • Historical Site

The exterior facade of the town hall is truly unique with its painting. Therefore, you should take a little time to look at it in peace.

Down the Danube to Leipheim and then back to Ulm. Stopped again and again on the way, woman always finds something to block. 😀 Had a nice meal in Ulm's fishing district. 🍻🍕

From Günzburg's beautiful market square, we go through the Unteres Tor out of the city and over the Danube bridge.
The first third is on a well-drivable gravel path along the Danube on a former towpath through floodplain forest, first through the Nauwald, then through the Weissinger Hölzle with many butterflies and orioles can be heard here.
Detour for swimming …
