The river Isar rises around 19 kilometers from Mittenwald (in the district of Garmisch-Partenkirchen), which is the starting point of the Isar Cycle Path. The destination for the cycle tour is around 300 kilometers further on in Deggendorf, a small town on the Danube. From Mittenwald, the first stretch leads to Krün. At an altitude of around 850 meters, you reach the Isarwinkel. On this section of the stage, you have an unobstructed view of a wonderful mountain panorama of Bavaria. You then reach Vorderriß in the upper Isarwinkel. From there, you continue to the Sylvenstein reservoir. The lake was created by man and was actually used for flood protection and as a water reservoir for dry periods. The myths surrounding the sunken village of “Fall”, which fell victim to the construction of the reservoir, still surround the lake. However, the fact that the church tower rises out of the lake during dry periods is a fairy tale.
The route leads downhill from the reservoir through a rock tunnel towards Lengries. From here, the route continues through the enchanting juniper heath along the Isar to Bad Tölz. After continuing from Bad Tölz on a chain of hills, you reach Geretsried and thus other suburbs of Munich. The route takes you directly into the center of Munich. You should not miss out on a hearty Bavarian snack at the Viktualienmarkt. But highlights such as Nymphenburg Palace, BMW Welt, FC Bayern Munich’s Allianz Arena, the Deutsches Museum or the Hofbräuhaus and Marienplatz are also waiting to be discovered in the state capital of Munich. Munich’s 1972 Olympic Park is also criss-crossed by numerous cycle paths. You leave the city through the impressive English Garden and can continue your tour on the cycle path without stressful city traffic.
On the way to the former episcopal town of Freising, you cycle through the alluvial forest and pass the Erdinger Moor. You reach Moosburg on a cycle path along the Isar through the Marzlinger Au. Here you can choose between two cycle paths for the next stage. The main route along the Isar takes you to Landshut, the capital of Lower Bavaria. Trausnitz Castle towers unmistakably over the city and can be visited all year round.
On the next section of the route, you pass many Isar reservoirs and then reach the town of Dingolfing. Freising, Landshut and Dingolfing-Landau present themselves as counties worth seeing. Via Landau an der Isar you now reach the Gäuboden, which is a landscape in the Danube valley and is one of the largest loess soil areas in southern Germany. You ride along small country roads towards your destination, Deggendorf. If you still have enough energy, you can cycle across the Isar estuary to Thundorf and from there take the Danube ferry to Niederalteich. The Isar cycle path offers you lots of cycling fun. Long stages with breathtaking views of the Bavarian Alps, idyllic forests and river landscapes as well as cultural sights peppered with many highlights and optional excursion destinations await you on this tour.
