Danube Idyll near Kleinprüfening

Highlight • River

Over there is the small town of Kleinprüfening.
And very hidden from the top of the mountain is another small place that hardly anyone in Regensburg knows: Marienhöhe

Schillerwiese — Riverside Beach on the Danube

Highlight • Beach

Here is the Schillerwiese, a historic bathing area on the Danube that was almost forgotten.

About 25 years ago, the city of Regensburg began to create and maintain sections of the beach. Since then, you can lie on the gravel or on the lawn in the shade of the trees or in the sun.

Drivers have to walk at least 500 m. That's why almost everyone comes by bike 🚲 😎.

There is no cafe or bar here, so bring your own picnic 🍉🍔🍺. Sometimes an ice cream van comes by 🍦.

Oh yes, you can also swim very well here 🏊.

Mariaort Railway Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

The Mariorter Bridge was inaugurated in 1873.
It spans the Danube is a steel girder construction - a so-called "truss bridge with overhead carriageway" and has a length of 198.20 meters. On the Regensburg side, the porch over the valley floodplain, a bridge built from round arches, then follows. A total of around 550 meters are spanned.

With a reference water level of 480 cm at the Oberndorf gauge, there is a passage height of 8.65 meters for shipping under the bridge. The Nuremberg – Regensburg railway runs for around 100 kilometers from Nuremberg via Neumarkt in der Oberpfalz and Parsberg to Regensburg. It is one of the most important routes for freight traffic to Eastern Europe.
The route was planned from 1869 by the Bavarian East Railways as the shortest connection between Nuremberg and Regensburg. Construction of the railway bridge near Mariaort began a year later.
