Hiking

The Wörnitz is an approximately 132 km long river that flows into the Danube in Donauwörth.

Hiking

The Wörnitz shapes the cityscape of Donauwörth in a special way. Shortly before it flows into the Danube, the river flows calmly along the historic old town, creating an idyllic backdrop with plenty of nature and water right on the outskirts of the city. The paths along the bank, in particular, invite you for a relaxing walk or a short hike.

Hiking

The Wörnitz flows from romantic Franconia to the Swabian Donauwörth and is considered the slowest tributary of the Danube. As the most winding, fishiest and one of the most beautiful watercourses in Bavaria, it offers a contrast to everyday stress
