Ulm, attractively located on the banks of the Danube, marks the beginning of the exciting circular route. After admiring the minster and the town hall in Ulm, we proceed along the Iller river southwards. Passing Laupheim with its Großlaupheim castle, we continue into the Rottum valley. We pass quiet villages such as Mietingen, Schönebürg and Reinstetten and can shortly catch the first glimpse of Ochsenhausen and the impressive monastery complex. 

Stage 2: Ochsenhausen – Leutkirch (approx. 44 km)
On our second stage, we embark on a ride through wide landscapes and historic towns. The highlight of the day is the Wurzacher Ried, one of the most important moor areas in southern Germany, the spa town of the same name, as well as the town of Leutkirch.
