Ostbayerischer Jakobsweg: nördliche Variante (Eschlkam > Donauwörth)

Nördliche Variante des Jakobswegs von Eschlkam (tschechische Grenze) über Cham, Regenstauf, Regensburg, Kelheim, Kloster Weltenburg, Bettbrunn, Eichstätt nach Donauwörth, wo er in den Schwäbisch-Bayerischen Jakobsweg mündet.

Covering 38.2 km, this is a true long-distance trail best approached as a multi-day journey through varied terrain.

This linear trail moves from one end to the other without looping back. A return journey by transport — or retracing the path — is needed to get back to the start. Follow the OBJ waymarkers throughout to stay on the official trail line.

As a National Walking Network (NWN) trail, this route represents a nationally recognised hiking corridor. Infrastructure and waymarking are maintained at a high standard.
