Top 20 Natural Monuments around Barbing

The Otterbach The Otterbach originates in the church village of Süssenbach, in the municipality of Wald in the Chams district, at approximately 477 m above sea level, through the confluence of the Weismühlbach and Steinbach streams. From there, it flows steadily southwestward, initially also called the Süssenbach, in loops that are particularly wide at the beginning. After passing through about a dozen smaller villages in Wald, it crosses the border into the Regensburg district and enters the municipality of Altenthann, passing through the village of Forstmühle there, and then flows northwest past the large, unincorporated forest area of the Forstmühle Forest. It passes successively the Altenthann hamlet of Bruckhäusl on the left bank, its church village of Heuweg on the right bank and on the heights above the valley, the village of Oberlichtenwald, which is located on the same bank as the stream, and the village of Unterlichtenwald on the right bank of the estuary in the wide floodplain. There, the most important tributary, the Sulzbach, flows along the other side of the village. Its upper reaches, together with its own course, even exceed the length of the Otterbach main branch up to this point, but contribute about a quarter less to the catchment area. From there, the St. 2145 state road uses the valley. The valley now narrows again between steep forest slopes, and the Otterbach enters the territory of Markt Donaustauf, where it successively passes the isolated villages of Neumühle and Klammer on its banks. The valley then widens into a large field bay, where it flows between the hamlets of Hammermühle and Dachsberg. Before Scheuchenberg, the stream, which ultimately flows almost southward, deviates to the right and southwest, crosses the church village of Sulzbach an der Donau, flows under the St. 2125 state road, which follows the stream, and flows into the Danube on the left after 17 kilometers. A popular hiking trail runs along the stream between Forstmühle and Hammermühle. Source: Excerpts from www.wikipedia.de

The cycle path is well-developed and signposted. Several rest stops are available. Before starting your bike tour, it's best to check the opening times and days.

A very beautiful railway line cycle path with a moderate gradient and almost entirely surrounded by beautiful nature. There are rest stops at regular intervals along the path, and several newly created playgrounds also invite you to linger. Coming from Regensburg, the surface is initially asphalt, later changing to gravel.

A perfect bike path for the start of the season 😀 especially if you're cycling from Falkenstein towards Regensburg. This works quite well if you take the bike bus to Falkenstein 🚐🚴🏻‍♀️ https://www.rvv.de/radtour-falkenstein-regensburg

There is also a bench here with a good view of the confluence.

The area where the Naab River flows into the Danube is perfect for relaxing strolls and picnics! Two great bike paths pass through here. It's simply beautiful! Nearby, in Mariaort, there's a large, good restaurant with a beer garden. There's also free parking. Best, Roland!

It's really worth stopping by at Koreawirt 👍
