Tips from the Community
The town of Wassertrüdingen is very beautiful. Old buildings and picturesque corners to discover. There is a great cyclist hotel where you can also eat well. Otherwise, the place is rather very quiet. We were there on a Sunday and the old town was pretty dead.

The area around the Wörnitz is really super beautiful. You can't cycle directly along the Wörnitz - :-) "rarely" probably describes it even better, but the river winds its way very naturally through the landscape.

The functions of Lake Altmühl in Bavaria are diverse: It serves to regulate water management, as a temporary reservoir for the Danube-Main system, to raise the Altmühl's low water levels, and for flood protection. At the same time, it is an important destination for tourism and recreation, offering activities such as sailing, swimming, and cycling, as well as an important sanctuary for waterfowl, particularly the "Bird Island" in the north of the lake. The cycle path around the lake is largely separated from pedestrians. Almost 100% paved. There are three lake centers with numerous restaurants.
