Directlinks
 
A brave band of tourist officials, led by Dr. Alexander Lipp from Eichstätt, opened the bicycle path along the Altmühl in 1983. The purposes were to make the beauty of the landscape known to holidaymakers and to strengthen the economy of the Frankish region on the border to Old Bavaria. Eichstätt, once capital of a little diocese, was responsible for a whole region until the administrative district was moved to Upper Bavaria.
