Discover Miltach

River activities and culture give Miltach its distinct character. On the Regen, you can choose between cycling and canoe tours; Altrandsberg Castle and the Martiniritt offer art and living tradition. Which of these appeals to you most may also shape when you travel and where you stay.

Art and Tradition in Miltach

Altrandsberg Castle, an imposing four-wing complex dating from the 16th or 17th century, is located within the municipality of Miltach. The municipality has fully renovated the castle. Today, it houses a castle church, a kindergarten and the World Art Museum. Before visiting the museum, it is best to check the current schedule.

The World Art Museum displays faithful replicas of art objects in 17 themed showcases, including some world-famous works whose originals are held in museums around the world. The tour spans the period from the Stone Age to the Baroque era. You can encounter a range of different periods within a collection that brings the pieces together as reproductions.

The Martiniritt offers a different experience and takes place in Miltach every November. More than 200 riders with festively decorated horses often take part. If you want to plan your trip around the Martiniritt, check the local arrangements for the relevant year before your visit.

Exploring by Bike or on the Water

The Regental cycle path runs from Miltach via Chamerau to Cham and back along the same route. For most of its length, it runs right beside the Regen; it is almost entirely paved and signposted. This gives you the route, surface and return journey for your planning: follow the route to Cham and return along the same way. Surfaces and signs may change, so it is worth checking the latest route information.

On the Regen towards Regensburg, experience, half-day, full-day, multi-day and whitewater tours are available, depending on your fitness level. The journey follows the river through a quiet, idyllic hilly landscape. The tour types listed vary in duration and character; consider which one best suits your travel plans. Confirm the tour options and conditions in advance with the local canoe provider.

Fishing is also possible along a short section of the Perlbach: in the Miltach village area, at its confluence with the Regen. Before fishing, check the applicable permits and regulations. This specific fishing stretch can be a separate part of your plans alongside cycling and canoe tours.

Natural Surroundings and Choosing Accommodation

As a regional natural area near Cham, the Regentalaue is one of Bavaria’s natural areas of international importance and among its most valuable natural areas.

When looking for accommodation in Miltach, it helps to first decide what you want to focus on during your stay: should the November Martiniritt date determine when you travel, or are cycling, a canoe tour, fishing or the museum your main priorities? Once you have organized your plans, you can search more specifically for accommodation that suits your stay.
