In Hersbruck the valley narrows and passes close Happurgs through a small wooded valley up to the European watershed . At Sulzbach-Rosenberg , the cycle path passes the disused Maxhütte , an industrial monument of steel production in Bavaria. Further in the Vilstal is Amberg , the former capital of the Upper Palatinate . Down through the wooded valleys of Vils and Naab you reach Regensburg . Continue along the Danube to Kelheim , then follow the romantic Altmühltal cycle path to Berching . From here along the Main-Danube Canal on mostly unpaved paths to the vicinity of Freystadt .
