Source of the Danube Donaueschingen

We have been here before and stayed in what was a shady (covered by trees) free Aire but we went on a tour of the green bordered on a map roads and none of the villages gave us reason to stop so we came in here for an ice cream break from the motorbike.

We were testing our memories as we walked round trying to find the source of the Danube or donauquelle but got there after a trundle and ice cream. The town has a brewery and although we didn't walk it this time it was a pleasant flat walk through a park from the aire that we both remember as we sought an open bike shop at the time.

The actual donauquelle is the clear circular water piece some 2400 KMs from the black sea exit and 630 odd m above sea level. You can just see the water rising from below and then exiting to go down to the already reasonably large Danube which starts life as the Brigach and Breg rivers.

Good cycling from here on the Danube
