Altmühltal cycle path Weißenburg-Eichstätt 3rd stage (barrier-free)

From the center of Weißenburg, we cycle via Bahnhofstraße, turn left into Gunzenhausenerstraße, turn left again into Kohlstraße and follow the Treuchtlingen Altmühltal sign. Continue mostly on a gravel cycle path through the Karlsgraben, which was planned by Charlemagne as the first waterway between the Rhine, Main, and Danube, towards Treuchtlingen, Dietfurt, and Pappenheim. The cycle path in the Altmühltal Nature Park follows the strongly meandering Altmühl; we pass the rock formations of the 12 Apostles near Solnhofen, then continue to Altendorf, Hagenacker, and the dry slopes near Dollnstein. At Breitenfurt, you reach a river curve where the valley widens, and you are in the original Danube valley. From Obereichstätt, Wasserzell, the well-designed cycle path leads to the baroque old town of Eichstätt with the Wilibaldsburg situated on a hill.
