Zenting's most famous sight is the Oberalteich monastery, which is worth a visit due to its impressive architecture and history. The castle ruins of Weißenstein and the church of St. Oswald are further tourist highlights.

For cultural experiences, we recommend a visit to the museum village of Tittling or a performance at the theatre on Neunerplatz. In summer, numerous festivals take place, such as the Grafenau Music Festival or the Passauer Land Cultural Festival.

Culinary Zenting also has a lot to offer: Enjoy Bavarian delicacies in cosy restaurants or try local specialities such as the famous Bärwurz schnapps.

    Schöne Goldsteig-Etappe mit wunderschöner Fernsicht aber auch einigen Abschnitten auf geteerten Straßen. Ich bin die Tour in entgegengesetzer Richtung mit Busanreise vom Bahnhof Deggendorf nach Zenting gelaufen. Außerdem habe ich die Tour dann über Hunding hinaus noch bis Lalling verlängert und von dort am Nachmittag mit dem Bus nach Deggendorf zum Bahnhof zurückgefahren. Insgesamt waren es bei meiner Tour dann ca. 19 km

    Schöne und abwechslungsreiche Tour. Allerdings bin ich die Tour in entgegengesetzer Richtung gegangen und habe die Tour erst in Trautmannsdorf begonnen (Busanreise von Passau). Außerdem habe ich die Goldsteig-Alternativroute von Manzenreuth über Ranfels nach Zenting noch mit eingeschlossen, was sich landschaftlich wirklich sehr gelohnt hat (insgesamt knapp 20 km). In Zenting fährt wochentags spätnachmittags ein Bus nach Deggendorf zum Bahnhof.

    Danke, eine sehr schöne Bayerwaldrunde, nicht nur für Samstage :) Die Streckenführung ist größtenteils über Nebenstraßen, Radwege und teils weniger befahrene Verbindungsstraßen. Immer wieder schöne Ausblicke und nach gemächlicher Anfangssteigung kommen auch ambitioniertere Fahrer auf ihre Kosten. Hinweis: im Sommer 22 ist die Strecke an der Donau wg. Bauarbeiten nicht befahrbar, daher besser gleich ausweichen.

    Super schöne Tour mit tollen Rennradstraßen, wenig Verkehr durch wunderschöne Dörfer und Landschaft. Ich werde die Tour auf jeden Fall nochmal fahren. p.s. nur das kleine Teilstück bei Nehmerin nach Nadling würde ich auf der Hauptstraße bleiben. Das Teilstück im gpx-Track ist ca 1km auf grobem Schotter.
