Insider tips from the host family:
Our personal favourites for cycling and hiking tours

Discover with us the insider tips for excursions and experience the hidden places of our homeland. We will guide you to our personal favourite places, where you will be rewarded with breathtaking views. Let yourself be enchanted by the beauty of our homeland in the heart of Bavaria.

Tour Tip 1

One of our personal favourite spots is on the rock opposite Weltenburg Abbey - from there you have a unique view of the Weltenburger Enge and the Benedictine abbey.

Tour Tip 2

Cycling through the hop gardens: such a calming and odor-intensive nature experience. After an exciting day, we like to grab a bike and enjoy the scent of hops, which has a demonstrably relaxing effect. This is particularly intense at harvest time in early September.
