Discover Rohr in Niederbayern

Rohr in Niederbayern offers two different options for your stay: a walk with a visit to the monastery church and a longer pilgrimage stage. If you are looking for a hotel, it helps to decide in advance which option you want to focus on. That way, you can coordinate your travel dates with your plans for your time there, without combining the circular route, church visit and pilgrimage route into a single outing.

The Napoleon Loop around the market town

The six-kilometre Napoleon Loop leads around the market town of Rohr and includes a visit to the monastery church. As a short hike, it makes for a clearly defined activity. If you are considering a stop for refreshments, you could include the beer garden at Gasthof Sixt as a possible stop. This lets you plan the outing according to your priorities: the church is part of the loop, while stopping for refreshments remains an additional option. If you would like to include the stop, you can add it as a separate item to your day’s plans. Local route conditions may change; check them before setting out.

Monastery church, audio guide and refreshments

An audio guide for the monastery church is available from the monastery shop for a small fee. If you would like to use it, check before your visit to see whether it is currently available. Gasthof Sixt is right next to the church; its beer garden serves Bavarian specialties and freshly brewed beer. The two options appeal to different interests: the audio guide accompanies your visit to the church, while the beer garden provides a place to stop for refreshments. The inn’s opening and offerings may change, so check before your visit.

The VIA NOVA as a longer stage

The European VIA NOVA includes an approximately 14-kilometre stage from Langquaid to Rohr through the valley of the Große Laber. Compared with the six-kilometre Napoleon Loop, this is a considerably longer route; it is also a stage between Langquaid and Rohr rather than a loop around the market town. This comparison makes it easier to decide whether to include a short walk around the town or a longer pilgrimage route in your plans. The routes differ both in length and in whether you are planning a loop around the market town or a stage between two places. Conditions along the route may also change; check them before your tour.

Find a hotel to match your travel plans

Decide which of these options will shape your stay and which is simply an additional possibility. This makes your search for a suitable hotel more focused, since you can first organize your reason for travelling and planned activities. Then check the details for each hotel and make your choice based on your travel dates.
