...Avoid the sections of the river that run parallel to the noisy, traffic-clogged autobahn, and stick instead with havens like the flat, unpaved trail that skirts the northern edge of Dillingen, a factory town of roughly 18,000 in Germany's southwest. Despite the proximity of urban development (Munich is just a 45-minute drive away), the area is rich in wildlife. Look out for hungry ducks and other fowl dive-bombing a river teeming with fish, plus the occasional huntsman, struggling to get an overexcited dog to heel...
...Danube (or Duna in Hungarian) divides the city into the hilly side (Buda) and the flat side (Pest), from which it gets its name. Jog through the former and you can check out the gorgeous 15th century Royal Palace and the 700-year-old Matthias Church.

Since then, police in France and Italy have traced the works back to America, but there the trail went cold. They declined to provide any details of their investigation. "It's a bit of a mystery," an investigator for the cultural heritage protection division of Italy's Carabinieri police force says. Over the past two years, the foundation had hoped the missing works would be found, eliminating the need...
