Discover the Altmühltal Panorama Trail

Walking in Altmühltal Nature Park with easy stages.

The Altmühltal Panoramaweg is a nature-focused walking trail. It leads you along the Altmühl on narrow, rocky and uneven paths, over sunlit juniper heaths, through unspoilt forests and dramatic rocky landscapes, and on varied valley and high-level sections through historic towns, to castles and palaces, and to relics of the Celts and Romans.

From Gunzenhausen via Eichstätt to Kelheim, 200 km of walking pleasure through Naturpark Altmühl; a point-to-point route with hotel changes and luggage transfer, following the Altmühl and the Main-Danube Canal, and from Weltenburg Abbey to Kelheim along the Danube.
