Lech River near Augsburg

Highlight • River

The Lech is a right tributary of the Danube. The 256 km long river has its source in Vorarlberg and flows through Tyrol and southern Bavaria, where it flows into the Danube. Shortly before the Austrian-German border, it takes up the Vils, forms the artificial Lechfall before Füssen and crosses Swabia and Upper Bavaria on its way. The largest cities on the Lech are Landsberg and Augsburg, where it receives its largest tributary, the Wertach. The river flows into the Danube at Marxheim.

Since the elevated path is located between the Lech Canal and the Lech and has no trees, you have pure sunshine.

Augsburg Old Town

Highlight • Settlement

Augsburg's old town exudes a Mediterranean flair. Narrow streets and corners invite you to stroll on the one hand and to linger in the many small restaurants or cafés on the other. There are no large department stores here, only small shops, tanneries, jewelry shops and galleries. The peace and quiet in Augsburg's old town is pleasant. But that's no coincidence - it's free of through traffic.

Constant companions on the stroll through the old town are the Lech canals, which tell of the importance of water for Augsburg.

Triple Weir at Vogeltor

Highlight • Monument

So far, the question of financing has been difficult. The replica of the old water wheel costs 94,000 euros, of which 30,000 euros have already been donated by Stadtwerke Augsburg (swa). The rest of the money will come from donations from citizens. Anton Asam, Sales Director at swa, promises to double every additional euro donated. "We support wherever we can," says Asam. It could have been even more expensive if a few helpers had not been willing to offer their participation in advance. For example, the family-owned company Denzel from Wertingen, which was commissioned to manufacture the bike, takes over the costs for the wood needed to keep the price as low as possible. The transport and the professional installation of the water wheel could also be excluded from the cost calculation, since this is done by the company from Montec, New Zealand. "We feel connected to the region and want to get more involved in the cultural and social area," Managing Director Michael de Buhr stated as the reason.
