Note: We had permission from the responsible nature conservation authority for the drone flight! In total, we will cover around 56 kilometers and climb about 240 meters in elevation (not including the detour to the Eichfelsen). The route is pleasant to ride and offers plenty of interesting stops along the way. We start in Tuttlingen. Immediately after the start, we leave the city and immerse ourselves in nature. From now on, the Danube accompanies us almost the entire way. We cycle beneath steep cliffs and through wide fields. The blue sky above us, blooming meadows on both sides, and charming villages with half-timbered houses create a real holiday feeling. Again and again, we catch magnificent views of the landscape and the first rock formations, which soon rise imposingly above us. Before we truly delve into the rocky region, I'll briefly introduce you to my bike. I went to the Multicycle Store in Villingen-Schwenningen and rented a Cube Reaction Hybrid SLX800. A modern e-bike with a Bosch motor, hydraulic seat post, and app connectivity. Multicycle has 54 locations throughout Germany and offers a wide selection of bikes for every terrain and every riding level. From mountain bikes to road bikes, they have it all. You'll receive detailed advice on site and have the opportunity to test drive various models. Shortly afterward, we head into the heart of the rocky world of the Upper Danube Valley. We cycle past grazing cows, horses, and goats. The path is mostly paved, partly gravel, but consistently well-maintained. The first 20 kilometers fly by. Again and again, new rock faces rise up alongside the cycle path, and suddenly, the first castle appears in the distance. The landscape looks like a painting. In Beuron, we reach the monastery of the same name. Even from afar, its size and location are impressive. The Benedictine monastery dates back to the 11th century and is famous for its Baroque architecture and impressive ceiling paintings. We take a quick look inside before getting back on our bikes and continuing the tour. There are wonderful viewpoints again and again. Finally, we leave the bikes for a moment and hike up to the Eichfelsen (Eich Rock). The climb takes about 15 minutes, but is worth it in every respect. From the top, we look down upon one of the most spectacular meanders of the Danube. Steep rock faces drop vertically into the valley, and below us, the river winds its way through the landscape. Several castles can be seen, including Wildenstein Castle and Werenwag Castle. This vantage point showcases the Upper Danube Valley in all its beauty. It's no coincidence that so many castles are located here. The Danube was once one of Europe's most important trade routes. Due to the difficult terrain, castles were built on the ridges to monitor routes, collect tolls, and control the region. A quick stop for an ice cream is a must before continuing on to the next stage. Our next destination is the Devil's Bridge, spectacularly nestled between the cliffs and the river. From up here, the view drops about 20 meters into a rocky gorge, aptly named Hell. The bridge itself is almost 22 meters long and, with its view, acts like a natural viewing balcony. There's also a legend attached to this place. A princess from Sigmaringen is said to have once thrown herself from her horse to her death here in lovesickness. At the end of the tour, we stop at the boathouse. We'll have cheeseburgers and fries, a more than deserved treat after an eventful day. Afterwards, we'll take a leisurely train ride back to the starting point. Perhaps you'll be on the Danube Cycle Path soon, too. I appreciate every thumbs-up, and of course, I'd appreciate a subscription so you don't miss any more tours.
