Excursion à vélo d’une journée de Donauworth à Augsbourg

This scenic ride takes you from the charming riverside town of Donauwörth to the bustling city of Augsburg, covering just under 49 km. Donauwörth, nestled where the Danube and Wörnitz rivers meet, is famous for its historical old town and colorful Reichsstraße boulevard—perfect for a quick coffee before you hit the road.

The route is mostly flat, with gentle ascents and descents along the way, and you’ll enjoy a comfortable mix of paved surfaces and some stretches of gravel and unpaved paths. The majority of your ride (about 60%) follows cycling paths and quiet roads, making for a peaceful journey through the Bavarian countryside. Expect beautiful farmland views and the occasional picturesque village.

Finish up in Augsburg, one of Germany’s oldest cities, known for its Renaissance architecture and laid-back atmosphere. Check out the famous Fuggerei, the world’s oldest social housing complex, or enjoy a stroll through the lively Maximilianstraße. Whether you pause at a country bakery or push straight through, this route is a perfect way to experience northern Swabia on two wheels!
