Feu­er und Eis own tour

Water bike trail — Salt loop with lug­ga­ge transfer

from 878,- per person

The salt rou­te is all about the white gold. Whe­re and how salt was mined, how it was trans­por­ted and which towns it made rich. Did you know that Upper Bava­ria was once one of the Euro­pean cen­ters of the salt trade? Salt, espe­ci­al­ly that from Bad Rei­chen­hall, brought wealth to the peo­p­le and towns. Even the city of Munich owes its foun­da­ti­on in 1185 to salt. And as salt is also good for your health, the­re are num­e­rous spas along this rou­te whe­re you can relax and take a deep breath — your respi­ra­to­ry tract will love the­se sal­ty moments! With so much salt, water is of cour­se a must: Wöhr­see, Chiem­see, Sims­see and the Adel­hol­zen water world are also at the feet of cyclists here. 

Itinerary / Stages

Day 1
Indi­vi­du­al arri­val in Munich
Distanz: 0 km Höhe (+): 0m Höhe (-): 0m
Indi­vi­du­al arri­val in Munich and explo­ra­ti­on of the city.
Day 2
Munich — Bad Feilnbach/Rosenheim area
Distanz: 73 km Höhe (+): 460m Höhe (-): 470m
You lea­ve the hust­le and bust­le of the city behind you and head south into Munich’s sur­roun­ding coun­try­si­de. As soon as you lea­ve the city limits behind you, you cycle through slight­ly hil­ly, green foot­hills of the Alps, fields, small forests and occa­sio­nal swee­ping views. After about a medi­um distance, you reach the regi­on around the Salz­schlei­fe water cycle path, which runs along water­cour­ses, canals and for­mer salt trans­por­ta­ti­on rou­tes. Here you can real­ly feel the the­me of salt and water: salt springs, pipe­lines and trans­port rou­tes were once deve­lo­ped here, today you cycle lei­su­re­ly through the are­as that were shaped by the “white gold”. The rou­te remains most­ly flat to modera­te­ly uphill, ide­al for a rela­xed day of cycling. You fol­low the mark­ed rou­te of the water cycle paths, enjoy quiet pas­sa­ges away from major roads, cross small bridges, see water­cour­ses and feel the tran­quil­li­ty of the land­scape. The clo­ser you get to Bad Feiln­bach, the more you immer­se yours­elf in the val­ley and Alpi­ne foot­hills: the first hills appear, the air seems clea­rer and the moun­ta­ins appear in the back­ground. Final­ly you reach Bad Feiln­bach, a beau­tiful end point in a quiet loca­ti­on with regio­nal flair. 
Day 3
Bad Feilnbach/Rosenheim area — Wasserburg
Distanz: 52 km Höhe (+): 200m Höhe (-): 270m
From Bad Feiln­bach, you roll rela­xed through the foot­hills of the Alps, past orchards and small farms. The moun­ta­ins slow­ly rece­de behind you as the land­scape opens up and appears wider. You fol­low quiet byways through small vil­la­ges, with gent­le undu­la­ti­ons that make the rou­te varied but easy to ride. The fur­ther north you go, the more the typi­cal Inn regi­on domi­na­tes the land­scape. Small streams and damp mea­dows appear again and again bet­ween woo­ded are­as and wide fields, picking up on the water the­me of the salt loop. The rou­te runs away from major roads, so you are main­ly in quiet, rural sur­roun­dings. Short­ly befo­re Was­ser­burg, the land­scape beco­mes par­ti­cu­lar­ly attrac­ti­ve once again. The paths gent­ly des­cend towards the Inn Val­ley, and you will soon reco­gni­ze the striking river bend in which Was­ser­bur­g’s colourful old town is loca­ted. You final­ly reach the town via plea­sant access roads and cycle into one of the most beau­tiful small towns in Upper Bavaria. 
Day 4
Was­ser­burg — Dorfen
Distanz: 73 km Höhe (+): 600m Höhe (-): 580m
From Was­ser­burg, you fol­low the Inn upstream and cycle through the wide Inn Val­ley with its mea­dows, fields and small forests. The paths remain pre­do­mi­nant­ly flat and quiet, always with beau­tiful views of the river and its side arms. You reach Mühl­dorf am Inn, who­se striking town squa­re invi­tes you to take a break. After Mühl­dorf, you lea­ve the Inn val­ley and head west towards Dor­fen. The land­scape beco­mes slight­ly hil­ly and more open, cha­rac­te­ri­zed by small vil­la­ges, forests and water-rich mea­dows. On plea­sant side roads, you final­ly roll rela­xed into the mar­ket town of Dor­fen, which forms a har­mo­nious end to the stage with its his­to­ric center. 
Day 5
Dor­fen — Munich
Distanz: 63 km Höhe (+): 310m Höhe (-): 220m
From Dor­fen, you initi­al­ly fol­low quiet paths through the wide rol­ling hills of the Erdin­ger Land. The rou­te remains plea­sant to ride and leads through small vil­la­ges, fields and spar­se wood­land. Small streams and damp mea­dows accom­pa­ny you again and again, con­ti­nuing the water the­me of the salt loop. The clo­ser you get to the out­skirts of Munich, the gent­ler the ter­rain beco­mes. You cycle through the Erdin­ger Moos and later through exten­si­ve green spaces, which slow­ly mer­ge into the first resi­den­ti­al are­as. The rou­te main­ly uses side roads and even­tual­ly leads you into the city on com­for­ta­ble cycle paths. At the end, you cycle rela­xed into Munich and reach the start­ing point of the salt loop again. 
Day 6
Indi­vi­du­al departure

Additional information

Tour cha­rac­ter
The Was­ser­Radl­We­ge through Upper Bava­ria con­nect some of the most beau­tiful cycle paths in Upper Bava­ria.

Some sec­tions of the rou­te are also on minor roads with litt­le traf­fic.

The dif­fi­cul­ty of the stages is deter­mi­ned by their length.
