If you already travelled the Inn cycle path from
St. Moritz to Innsbruck, you are fully aware of the beautiful mountain
panorama encircling Innsbruck. The cycle path follows the river on it's
banks or meanders through the valley of the Inn. The path is flat, following
signposted cycle paths, sandy or gruel roads, on the banks or on the damms
encasing the river, through tranquil and natural landscapes.
If you want to leave your car near the end of your
tour, we can recommend the baroque
town Schärding. Here free of charge parking on public parking areas
are available. For further information please contact the tourism office
(+43(0)7712/4300-0).
Passing the cities Hall, Wattens, Schwaz and Wörgl the
famous town of Kufstein is reached. Interesting in Kufstein are
the galeries on the front of old buildings,
characteristic for the towns on the Inn.

After passing Kufstein
on the foots of the idyllic mountain panorama of the Wilden Kaisers
the Inn crosses the border to Germany. And here it is Bavaria that welcomes
you. Cities as Rosenheim, Wasserburg, Mühldorf
and Altötting are the most renowned cities in Upper Bavaria.
Mountains and hills covered with dark green forests, little water runs
tumbling down from the heights, little old farm houses, as well as the
good Bavarian beer is associated with Upper Bavaria.
When you reached Altötting you should
make up your mind, if you want to proceed on the Bavarian or the Austrian
bank of the Inn. Here the "European reservate
Lower Inn" forms a bird resort of highest intenational reputation.

In Passau, the Three-river-city
fare well is bidden from the Inn, which joins the greater floods of the
Danube.
For anybody wanting to continue the cycle holiday, the Danube
Cycle Trail is the natural choice. |
