🌉 Danube bridge near Günzburg A striking arch bridge over the Danube near Günzburg, which is noticeable from afar with its modern steel construction. Directly next to the roadway, there is a separate area for pedestrians and cyclists, making it easy to cross the Danube here. 🚲👌🏼 From the bridge, you have a beautiful view of the river and the green banks. Even from the Danube Cycle Path below, the large arch construction is a beautiful photo motif. 🌿🌊 Greetings Marcus ✌🏼
