The best hikes from bus stations around Forstmühler Fost

The Walhalla in Donaustauf is one of Bavaria's most impressive monuments. Located high above the Danube and visible from afar. The neoclassical building in the style of a Greek temple was erected in the 19th century by King Ludwig I and is one of Germany's most important national monuments. The ascent via the approximately 350 steps is athletic, but absolutely worthwhile. At the top, a spectacular panoramic view of the Danube and the Gäuboden awaits you. Especially at sunset, it's a highlight. Inside, the Hall of Fame impresses with over 100 marble busts of important personalities such as Goethe or Schiller. The complex is spacious, well-maintained, and ideal for photos or a short excursion. Highlight: The combination of monumental architecture and view. Conclusion: An absolute must-see in the Regensburg region. Tip: Come early in the morning or in the evening. Fewer visitors & best light.

Imposing neoclassical building with a marble hall featuring plaques and busts of important Germans.

Regardless of which side you ascend from... a great view. But Walhalla itself is also worth it. 5 Euro entrance fee is okay 🙃🙏

Amazing colonnade in a fantastic building with a superb panoramic view 🤩

From above you have a great view of the Otterbach stream and the rock formations below.

Walhalla near Donaustauf offers a sweeping view of the Danube and the surrounding landscape. From its elevated position, the river is clearly visible as it winds through the plain. The banks are lined with forests and fields, forming a diverse cultural landscape. On clear days, the view extends far into the Danube plain. The view is framed by the architecture of the neoclassical temple building, creating a striking connection between the building and the river landscape.

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
