Historical walk in Passau in Lower Bavaria, the city between the Danube and Inn rivers.
A beautiful and relaxing walk in a very special place - where the Danube, Inn and Ilz rivers meet at the Dreiflüsseeck. It is easy to see how the three different colors of the rivers mix. The water of the Inn, which has its source in the Alps, is green, the Danube is blue-brown and the Ilz, which comes from a moor, is black.
There are also numerous historical sights to discover in the old town and plenty of opportunities to stroll around and stop off at cafés and restaurants.
The start is at Residenzplatz, at the bus stop of the same name.
Highlights:
- Town Hall
- Fritz Schäffer Promenade
- Danube Canal
- View of the city and water from the Dreiflüsseeck
- Inn Canal
- Old and New Residence
- Cathedral
