 The Entdeckerviertel is cross-border and connects Austria and Germany along the Salzach and Inn rivers. This alternative route runs from Tittmoning via Burghausen to Simbach.

The 180-kilometer loop can be comfortably cycled in three to four days. Depending on your mood. This is because the region only has a few gentle climbs. The multi-day tour is characterized by views, nature, culture and culinary delights.

 The discovery district includes nine lakes! This tour takes you past all the lakes and moors on both the German and Austrian sides. It offers wonderful insights into nature. It's well worth stopping for a swim on hot days!

Around 90% of the route is on asphalt paths, the rest on wide, paved gravel paths. Around 70% of the route is on side roads.
