Kallmünz
BIKE TOUR TO KALLMÜNZ! Kallmünz is one of our favorite places in the Regensburg district. We recently went there again by bike and can only recommend a trip to Kallmünz.

Schulerloch
EXCURSION WITH CHILDREN TO THE ALTMÜHLTAL! From the Schulerloch stalactite cave to Essing and back.

Robbers’ den
EXCURSION: TO THE ROBBERS’ DEN! Halfway between Etterzhausen and Penk, above the Naab on the Jurasteig, there is a real robber’s cave!
