Between Eilsbrunn and Eichhofen in the valley of the Schwarze Laber near Regensburg, you will find an alpine route that is unique in our region. The narrow path winds over idyllic dry grass slopes, past massive rock formations, high above the usually gently flowing Schwarze Laber below you. There is plenty to discover both high above and down in the valley. Anyone who looks closely will find a new small or large highlight every few meters. Special mention deserves the Loch castle ruin, one of Bavaria's most striking castle ruins. But you will find more information about that in the route description ;-)

The last stage of the WolfgangWeg leads from Eilsbrunn to Mariaort and from there to the center of Regensburg to the Basilica of St. Emmeram.
Prüfening Castle: The former monastery church of St. George is well worth a thorough visit. Most impressive are the Romanesque murals from the 12th century, which have been preserved on the crossing pillars and in the side choirs, ensuring that their original character and color scheme have been preserved to this day.

Rock formations and caves above the Danube Valley We begin our hike with a tour of the St. George Monastery Church, completed in 1125, a Romanesque pillar basilica with a transept. The well-preserved Romanesque wall paintings are worth seeing. After secularization, the Thurn und Taxis family acquired the monastery in 1899. Max Emanuel, Prince of Thurn und Taxis, was a member of the Benedictine Order and sought—unfortunately without success—to revive monastic life. As the hermit Father Emmeram, he lived alone and in seclusion in the former Prüfening Monastery for over 30 years until his death in 1994. Following the tour, the Max-Schultze-Steig trail leads us along the Danube past countless scenic rock outcrops to Pentling, the former residence of Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI. We’ll take a leisurely hike back along the banks of the Danube and, to top it all off, gain a geological insight into the former lignite mining operations at the Friedrich Mine.
