Route description for weekend route in BW


weekend route
in BW

The route is suitable as a leisurely break for two days, as well as a manageable day trip - then with fewer sightseeing/activities. The starting point is Schwäbisch Gmünd, the oldest Staufer town. You can also spend an additional, interesting day here (there are enough sights for that. Further information: www.schwaebisch-gmuend.de). But of course you can also get on at any point on the route. The descriptions are intended as suggestions that can be accepted or omitted as you wish.

Seifertshofen, Deutschland

A visit to the "Swabian Farmers and Technology Museum", which is usually open on weekends, is a good idea here.

The mostly military exhibits are certainly not to everyone's taste, but their composition is at least curious.

The "Seifertshofener Traktor Pulling" in summer is also well known.
