Wörth a.d.Donau offers a variety of hiking trails and an indoor pool with year-round swimming. This gives you two specific options when planning a stay: routes with different layouts and lengths, and swimming with a steam bath and massage bench. If you are looking for accommodation in Wörth a.d.Donau, you can first decide how much of your stay you want to spend hiking and swimming. You can compare the trails based on their starting points, local landmarks and distances. Check the indoor pool’s current operating details before you travel.

Choose a hiking trail by its route

Hiking Trail 2 starts at the indoor pool on Geschwelltalstraße and runs through the Gschwelltal (Paradies), following forest paths along the Perlbach stream toward Vorderzirnberg. The circular hiking trail around Wörth a.d.Donau takes in different landmarks: it follows field and forest paths past Hungersacker, Hofdorf and Tiefenthal. It also offers views of the surrounding countryside, the communities and Wörth Castle. When choosing between the two trail descriptions, you can use the landscape and places mentioned as a guide: Trail 2 runs through the valley along the Perlbach, while the circular trail takes in several settlements and viewpoints.

Compare trail distances

Circular Hiking Trail 1 is approximately 12.5 km long, and Circular Hiking Trail 3 is approximately 11.5 km. The approximate distances differ by about one kilometre. Circular Hiking Trail 11 is just over 10 km long; its shortcut, 11a, is 8 km long and starts in Hofdorf. If you want to narrow down the distance, 11a offers a shorter alternative to Route 11, which is over ten kilometres long. You can use the trail distances as a point of comparison alongside each route.

The indoor pool as a separate activity

The indoor pool in Wörth a.d.Donau offers swimming year-round and has a steam bath and a massage bench. It is a standalone activity for travellers who want to include swimming in their stay. Hiking Trail 2 also starts at the indoor pool on Geschwelltalstraße, so the pool is relevant both when choosing a route and when planning a visit. Check the current operating details before you travel.

In the wider Regensburg destination

Walhalla adds an architectural and historical highlight to the wider Regensburg destination. The memorial and hall of fame on the Danube is one of Germany’s major neoclassical buildings; its exterior is Doric in style and features 52 columns. Since 1842, notable Germans and people associated with German history have been honoured there with marble busts and commemorative plaques. From the Stone Bridge in Regensburg, passenger boats operated by Klinger and Wurm & Noé travel along the Danube to the foot of Walhalla from Easter to October. If you plan to take this seasonal connection, check the sailing days in advance.

Another highlight in the wider Regensburg destination is the Nepal Himalaya Park in Wiesent. Covering nine hectares, the park brings together Asian culture and nature. It features a Nepalese temple, a diverse perennial garden and numerous Asian works of art. The grounds also include a Himalayan garden and a Chinese garden, as well as more than 6,200 different plant species. The wider Regensburg destination thus offers a range of themes: neoclassical memorial architecture at Walhalla and gardens with diverse plant life in Wiesent.
