Nibelungengau long-distance hiking trail

Stages on the Nibelungengau long-distance hiking trail

The Nibelungengau long-distance hiking trail opens up the region in several varied stages and invites you to discover the landscape, history and nature step by step. Each stage has its own character and opens up new perspectives on the Danube, the hilly hinterland and the historic places along the way.

The individual daily stages are designed to be easily manageable and leave enough room for breaks, detours and discoveries. Sometimes the paths lead directly along the river, sometimes up to panoramic ridges, through shady forests or past meadows, vineyards and small villages. Impressive views of the Danube valley and the varied cultural landscape of the Nibelungengau open up again and again.

Along the way, rest areas, viewpoints and places to stop for refreshments invite you to pause and enjoy the moment. Cultural highlights, regional cuisine and the palpable proximity to the legendary Nibelung story make every day's hike a special experience.

Whether as a multi-day long-distance hike or in individual stages, the Nibelungengau long-distance hiking trail offers ideal conditions for exploring the region at your own pace, finding peace and quiet, and experiencing the diversity of the Danube region in depth.
