October 6, 2023,Tag 04/23 Ehingen nach Ulm

On the last day on the Danube route, we drove in the fresh morning fog via Erbach to Ulm. That's why the prospects weren't all that great. Next year we will continue, but first again from Ehingen to Ulm via Blaubeuren (Blau) as this should also be a nice alternative route to today's.

Right along the Danube through floodplain forest and riverside forest, past the mouth of the Iller. More often now there are islands in the river or a power plant canal and a second river arm. Particularly beautiful is the stretch through the Gronne and Lichternsee nature reserves with lots of wild landscape and reed areas, which can be well observed …
