The landscape is attraction number one!
The landscape of the Rhön is beautiful and fascinating – just like your apartment in the heart of Bavaria. The contrast between mountains with a height of 950 meters and high plateaus, where you hardly meet a person during your hikes, evokes emotions. Let the primeval forests of the Rhön enchant you. Among the highest mountains are the Wasserkuppe with 950 meters or the 928-meter-high Kreuzberg. On the high plateaus, you can try to spot your accommodation. In the evening, enjoy the comfort that promises you a tailor-made vacation. Head to Milseburg. On the mountain, you can hike to your heart's content and admire excavations. Another highlight that you should not miss from your accommodation in the Rhön is the Franconian Open Air Museum Fladungen. The museum illustrates rural architectural culture and village life in the Franconian Fladungen of earlier times. Near Bischofsheim is the Kreuzberg Monastery, a monastery of the Franciscan Observants. The spa town Bad Kissingen is then the crowning conclusion of your tour, so you can relax in the comfortable apartment in the evening with a good glass of Franconian wine, reflecting on your journey. Also, take a trip to the town of Gersfeld.
Nature experiences of a special kind
The UNESCO Biosphere Reserve Rhön is a must-visit. Here, you will encounter a variety of different landscape forms. The Hohe Rhön, a high plateau, attracts with breathtaking distant views of the landscape. Cone mountains, animals, and open fields characterize the Hohe Rhön. The landscape scores with many flowers and meadows, high moors, and forests. Birds like the kingfisher, the black stork, or the corncrake find a vital habitat here. They are already endangered. Thus, the reserve creates jobs in the region and exemplary species protection in Germany. The 2433 square kilometer area also serves research. However, it is not a nature reserve, but is oriented towards humans and nature.
The history of the Rhön is very interesting: volcanoes played a part in it. Basalt columns in the Bavarian Rhön Nature Park remind us of this and significantly shape this magnificent landscape. Especially the plant world is extraordinary. Many plants grow only here. Among the most significant high moors in Central Europe is the high moor near Fladungen. Hike between biotopes, traces of the Stone Age and Celts, then search for the truth in Franconian wine tradition: In vino veritas. A small sip away from the apartment with Wi-Fi cannot curb the wanderlust, this region of Bavaria is too beautiful to stay away for long. You just need to book a cozy holiday accommodation at a reasonable price or a chicly furnished apartment, for example in Kilianshof, Bad Bocklet, Bad Kissingen, Bad Neustadt, Bad Königshofen, or Bad Brückenau, with a kitchen, terrace, garden, and enjoy a vacation full of relaxation between hiking trails and the Fulda.
