What exciting stories

Get out into nature! There are so many exciting things to discover on nature excursions and hikes in the Donaubergland. This fascinates young and old sleuths alike. Every excursion and every hike becomes a little adventure.

We are all magically attracted to caves, for example. Water is always exciting, whether directly on the Danube, at springs in the forest, at small waterfalls or when it simply seeps away. Climbing mountains and venturing onto rocks is sometimes quite strenuous.

The Donaubergland offers so many geological and scenic attractions that it is impossible to describe everything here.
