Discover Miltach
Accommodation in Miltach
A stay in Miltach can be planned around two themes: culture in the municipality and activities on the Regen. These include the Regental Cycle Route, various canoeing options and a short fishing stretch on the Perlbach. The Martiniritt takes place every year in November.
Art and Tradition in the Municipality
Schloss Altrandsberg is located in the municipality of Miltach. It is an imposing four-wing complex dating from the 16th or 17th century. The municipality of Miltach has completely renovated the castle. Today, it houses a castle church, a kindergarten and the WeltKunstMuseum. The museum displays faithful reproductions of works of art in 17 thematically arranged display cases. Some are world-famous works whose originals are held in museums around the world.
The tour spans the period from the Stone Age to the Baroque period. This makes it possible to place reproductions from very different eras in context during a single museum visit. Check the museum’s current schedule before your visit.
The Martiniritt in Miltach takes place every year in November. More than 200 riders often take part, riding festively decorated horses. For planning purposes, check the arrangements for the relevant year locally.
Cycling, Paddling and Fishing
The Regental Cycle Route runs from Miltach via Chamerau to Cham and back along the same route. It runs mostly right beside the Regen; the route is almost entirely paved and signposted. If you cycle as far as Cham, you can plan to return along the same route. Check the latest route conditions before setting off, as the surface and signposting may change.
Depending on your fitness level, options on the Regen from Miltach towards Regensburg include adventure, half-day, full-day, multi-day and white-water tours. The journey passes through quiet, idyllic hilly countryside along the river. If you are considering a specific tour, check the tour type and current conditions with the local canoe provider.
Fishing is permitted on a short stretch of the Perlbach within Miltach, at its mouth where it flows into the Regen. Check the applicable permits and regulations before fishing.
