West of Augsburg, the land rises into a quiet country of wooded hills and valleys, protected as the Augsburg Western Forests nature park. Dinkelscherben is a small market town in the valley of the Zusam, with a church, a few shops and inns, and it makes a peaceful stop on a ride through the Swabian countryside, far from the busy roads around the city.

Straubing lies a little to the northeast, and this stop sits in the great grain country around it, the Gäuboden. It is some of the most fertile land in Bavaria, a broad plain between the Danube and the Bavarian Forest covered in deep loess soil laid down by wind in the ice age, and the locals call it the breadbasket of the state. The villages of Leiblfing, Mengkofen and Geiselhöring each have a church with an onion dome and a ring of large farms. In summer the fields stand tall and golden, and the whole area smells of dust and warm straw.
