Altmühltal-Radweg

A "classic" among cycle routes

The Altmühl Cycle Route (Altmühltal-Radweg) is one of the favourite cycling routes in Germany. It follows the tranquil river Altmühl 166 km long from Gunzenhausen to Kelheim across the Altmühltal Nature Park and discloses the gorgeous beauty of the region. 

Along the route you will meet the imposing Jura upland rocks, typical heathlands with junipers, green meadows and wide spaces along the river. 

Enjoy your tour!

Plan your tours easily

You can go back to the starting point or to intermediate legs also by train with the Deutsche Bahn or by bus on the “Freizeitbusse” with practical bike trailers.

Are you an indefatigable cyclist? Then you should consider cycling to Regensburg and further on – where the Altmühl Cycle Route comes to an end, you can follow the Danube Cycle Route (Donau-Radweg).
