Mochental Castle

Highlight • Castle

Left at the castle Mochental it goes steadily up the wooded Bachtal. You actually follow a stream for about 1.5 km and pass small ponds, lakes and fountains.

The weather today was dry, cold and very windy. The wind was once again a negative tailwind, which blew us into Ulm main station. From there we took the train to Lindau

June 9, 2025,20250609 3 Donauradweg Pfingsten von Zwiefaltendorf nach Ulm

Today my husband cycled from Zwiefaltendorf to Sigmaringen and then took the train to Donaueschingen to take the car to Ulm. Anything else would have taken forever to transfer.
Meanwhile, I cycled the route. Not much of the Danube, much further away or even up the mountain. Some very steep climbs and lots of scenery.
