Donaueschingen to Fridingen
Our cycling adventure began with excitement and a bit of neglect in capturing early-day moments. Following GPS tracks, we navigated unfamiliar terrains, enjoying the serene beauty of the Danube and spotting wildlife along the way. Despite a brief rain shower, we successfully reached our hotel and enjoyed a delicious meal, setting the stage for an exciting day ahead.
Donaueschingen and the source of the Danube river
Embarking on a thrilling adventure along the Danube Radweg, we discovered the stunning source of the mighty Danube River in Donaueschingen. Our journey began at the historic Church Saint John the Baptist, where we set out on an exciting e-bike ride through Fürstenberg Park, enjoying breathtaking views and a delicious lunch at the Furstenberg restaurant. With the sun setting on our first day of exploration, we eagerly anticipated the adventures that awaited us tomorrow.
