I've always thought that Passau was an Austrian city, because it is mostly on the southern side of the Danube River, but in fact it is still part of Germany and the international border actually runs just East of the city, and then along the Danube. We had perfect cycling weather for most of the day, but for the last couple of hours the light rain came back.
We started off going down the left bank for about 40 km , as recommended, and then caught the ferry to the right bank at Schlogen. This is the best cycle route we've ever encountered. The Danube is so majestic, with the forested ridges accompanying it all the way,and the track is very tranquil. We still hear the very pleasant call of the cuckoo every day.
Route: Passau - Obernzell - Niederranna - Schlogen - Aschach.
