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.

Today we went to Weltenburg Monastery. Go there by ship.
Great ride on the Danube, past the Danube breakthrough. Ate delicious in the monastery beer garden. Back by bike to Kelheim. Excellent cycle paths on the Danube. In summary, this tour can only be recommended
