Neumarkt i. d. Oberpfalz - Breathe deeply in the realm of springs

Key facts of the tour
The town of Neumarkt in der Oberpfalz lies on the western edge of the Franconian Alb. From here, you can experience the Regionalpark Quellenreich in all its beauty on this cycle tour. Numerous springs have their source here and streams flow through the otherwise water-poor karst landscape. This and the heights with their varied lines of sight are what make the landscape so attractive.

This tour is for active hikers in good physical condition. It climbs up to 260 metres and descends accordingly. The climbs, some of which can be challenging, are easy to master on an e-bike.

With a few short exceptions, the "Regionalpark Quellenreich" (RRQ) cycle route runs away from roads or on roadside cycle paths. You can enjoy well-deserved breaks in the beer gardens and in the midst of old Bavarian pub culture. Look out for the Q at the edge of the path. This sign indicates particularly beautiful resting places in the Quellenreich.
