Cycle paths for adventure seekers

Meandering mostly through green parks, meadows and pastures with more than 100 castles and palaces along the way, the 100 Castles and Palaces Route majestically lords over the other cycle routes.

The Swabian Alb is renowned for its stunning scenery, but not many people realise that it also offers a fascinating insight into a time when mammoths roamed the valleys and people lived in caves.

The Aller Cycle Route runs alongside the River Weser's largest confluence for around 330 kilometres, with plenty of opportunity for laid-back excursions along the way. Not to mention the areas of undisturbed nature and exceptional museums.

The fairytale castle park of the Allgäu can be explored across five sections covering a total length of 219 kilometres. This promises to be the ultimate experience surrounded by nature and culture.

There's no better phrase to sum up the Allgäu region than "lush green". Its stunning landscape is filled with water and meadows. It only takes a quick look at the magnificent panoramic view of the Alps to realise why the ADFC awarded this route four stars.

A Franconian natural spectacle awaits cyclists on this route of 250 kilometers. They cross along the Altmühl river from Rothenburg ob der Tauber to Kehlheim through the Romantic Franconia, the Franconian Lake District and the Altmühltal Nature Park. The route ends, where the River Altmühl conjoins with the mouth of the mighty Danube river.
