The Altmühl is a river in Bavaria, Germany. It is a left tributary of the river Danube and is approximately long. ==Course== The source of the Altmühl is close to the town of Ansbach. From here the river runs southeastwards as a narrow brook to enter the (a lake) north of Gunzenhausen. After leaving Gunzenhausen the river describes a broad curve through the Franconian Jura. It enters the ' (Altmühl Valley Nature Park), which is famous for its natural beauty: The meanders of the Altmühl river have cut deep gorges into the mountains of the Franconian Jura. The Altmühl passes the towns of Treuchtlingen, Eichstätt and Beilngries. After Dietfurt the river bed was straightened and integrated into a canal connecting the river Main and the river Danube (the Rhine-Main-Danube Canal). In spite of protests by conservationists the canal was opened in 1992 and has changed much of the eastern Altmühl valley. The Altmühl finally flows into the Danube in Kelheim. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Altmühl」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
