Tour

Individual arrival in the Altmühltal in Gunzenhausen. In the afternoon you can take a first short tour of the old town with half-timbered houses and baroque buildings.

Today's bike tour takes you through beautiful landscapes, through fields and meadows to Herrieden. A city tour with the monastery basilica, the city palace and the almost completely preserved city wall is worthwhile. On the way back you can cycle comfortably along the Altmühltal cycle path and enjoy the wonderful views.

After breakfast you cycle to Lake Dennenloher. Let yourself be enchanted by the dreamlike natural idyll and take your time to visit Dennenlohe Castle with its picturesque parks. Explore the romantic Rhododenron Park on a walk and discover the Bhutanese temple, the herb garden and numerous plants and sculptures from all over the world.

Today offers perfect bathing opportunities. Sandy beaches and wide lawns line the shores of the lake. Look forward to a dreamlike tour around the large Brombachsee and enjoy delicious Franconian specialties in a beer garden. Take a boat trip on the "MS Brombachsee" to marvel at the lake from a different perspective. Afterwards it goes back to the hotel.

Freshly strengthened, today's day takes you south along the Brombachsee to the residential town of Ellingen. History can be experienced on a guided tour through the town, which is well worth seeing, with its impressive residence and castle church. The next highlight awaits you in the medieval Roman town of Weißenburg with the Roman thermal baths and the St. Andreas Tower. On the Altmühl cycle path, you return to Gunzenhausen - full of impressions.

Today you start on the Altmühlradweg to the nearby Altmühlsee. Enjoy the peaceful nature along the beautiful bike path and pack your bathing suit. In addition, the Altmühlsee with its bird island is home to one of the most important protected areas for migratory birds in Bavaria. The bird sanctuary can be reached on foot via a wooden walkway in the northern part of the lake.

Unfortunately, today it is already time to say goodbye to your beautiful trip in Altmühltal. After breakfast, you will travel home on your own. You are also welcome to extend your trip and spend additional nights in Gunzenhausen.
