The attractions in the Swabian Alb are virtually unlimited. The Swabian Alb Biosphere Area has been awarded as the most sustainable vacation destination in Germany. Covering about 85,000 hectares, you will encounter a traditional and historically grown nature that is second to none. The Alb is characterized by colorful flower meadows, extensive gorge and slope forests, Alb high plateaus, and diverse juniper heaths. In Baden-Württemberg, there are few other places where you can find such a variety of cultural-historical attractions, habitats, and rare plants and animals. In the south, the juniper heaths and forests gently slope down to Upper Swabia, while on the northern edge, it rises up to 1,000 meters in height. Cyclists and hikers have always known about the Alb. But now climbers, mountain bikers, and lovers of cultural offerings are also discovering the cities at the foot of the Alb. The former hunting lodge of Wilhelm Graf von Württemberg is probably the most famous castle in the region. The fairy-tale castle is also the landmark of the Swabian Alb. The residence castle in beautiful Bad Urach is one of the few preserved castles from the late Middle Ages. During a guided tour, you will learn all about the history of the former residence city of Bad Urach. But not only the castles, the medieval fortresses are also worth a visit. The mountain ruin Hohengundelfingen, for example, is located on steeply rising rocks above Münsingen-Gundelfingen. From here, you have a breathtaking view of the surrounding area. North of Römerstein-Böhringen lies the castle ruin Sperberseck. Here, on a mountain spur separated from the high plateau by a moat, impressive wall remnants await you. In Reutlingen you can visit the castle ruins Hohenhundersingen and Achalm. Burg Hohen Neuffen is located on a steep peak above the town of Neuffen. The complex was built in the 12th century, and today a restaurant is housed in the impressive ruin. Many remnants of the fortress still exist, such as the bastions, moats, the core castle, gate, and barbican structures. With its intricate layout and spaciousness, the fortress invites you to linger and explore. Hohenzollern Castle is the ancestral seat of the Prussian-Brandenburg line of the House of Hohenzollern. It is one of the most visited and beautiful castles in Europe. The panoramic view over the Swabian Alb is absolutely breathtaking. Schloss Lichtenstein is also called the "fairy-tale castle of Württemberg" and is perched at an elevation of 817 meters above the town of Honau. In the Upper Danube Nature Park, lynxes are regularly spotted. On-site, you will learn all about the lynxes and their habitat. If you want to go on a shopping spree from your private vacation apartment and your holiday home, the Outletcity Metzingen is the place to be. Here, over 80 luxury and premium brands await you.
In the Swabian Alb, alongside a beautiful vacation apartment, a dreamy landscape, interesting museums, and numerous sports opportunities await you. Among the highlights is Ulm Minster. The church is not only the largest Protestant church in the country, but it also has the highest church tower in the world. The minster invites you to attend devotions, concerts, tower climbs, guided tours, and services. The Botanical Garden in Ulm belongs to the university and is an oasis of relaxation. From your apartment or holiday home, all highlights are quickly and easily accessible. Rent a comfortably furnished vacation accommodation, an apartment, or a house, for example in Giengen, Hayingen, or Lichtenstein, with a terrace and Wi-Fi, and enjoy the dream of a vacation full of relaxation and variety, exactly according to your personal wishes.

Dogs are also welcome in many apartments. As diverse as the region, a vacation with children and dogs in Baden-Württemberg with mom and dad or grandma and grandpa becomes an unforgettable experience. The many adventure trails are a great destination for the whole family. Water adventure trails provide an interesting insight into the importance of water and offer opportunities for splashing, refreshing, and muddying. Another popular destination for families is the Marbach State Stud, nestled in beautiful nature. Over 500 years of history make the Marbach State Stud the oldest German state stud. A tour through the Großes Lautertal leads you to picturesque villages, castle ruins, caves, forests, and typical Alb rock formations. You see, during a vacation in the mountains in a holiday home or vacation apartment in Swabia, you, your family, and your beloved dog will never get bored. Also, take a trip to Münsingen, Albstadt, or Tübingen. The diverse landscape and nature of the Swabian Alb meet impressive cultural monuments here. A hike along the Neckar or the Danube is also a must!
Swabian cuisine is hearty and down-to-earth. In the past, what was available was cooked: fresh vegetables in summer, legumes and cabbage, Spätzle, sausage, potatoes, and fish in winter. And even today, Swabian housewives create dishes that make do with few ingredients. For example, Kartoffelschnitz with Spätzle is a symbol of skilled leftover use, and Gaisburger Marsch stew is sometimes prepared with yesterday's Spätzle or the day before's potatoes. It includes a hearty beef broth with varying amounts of soup meat. The favorite dish of the Swabians is Spätzle, which is either served as a standalone dish in the form of Käsespätzle or as a side dish to lentils, roast beef, or sauerbraten. You must try Maultaschen, which are dumplings filled with spinach or deliciously seasoned meat. Swabian potato salad tastes best when served lukewarm. If you like lamb, Swabian cuisine is a paradise for you. The meat is fresh and young and melts in your mouth. Many restaurants offer dishes from local hunting, including wild boar, deer, and hare. Fresh trout from the rivers are served at the table. The sweet treats like Ofenschlupfer, Dampfnudeln, and Kirschenmichel are very tempting. Swabians are passionate soup eaters: Fädlesuppe with finely cut pancakes, beer soup, potato soup, and bread soup are extremely popular. If you want to prepare a traditional dish in your vacation apartment or holiday home, you should visit one of the many markets. Here, you can get fresh ingredients from the region.
The Swabian Alb is a place of artists, poets, and thinkers such as Eduard Mörike, Ludwig Uhland, Hesse, Einstein, Ludwig Uhland, List, Steiff, and Walter Jens. In the Kunsthalle Weishaupt in Ulm, the entrepreneur and art collector Siegfried Weishaupt exhibits his collected artworks. On 1,280 sqm of exhibition space, American and European classics from the second half of the 20th century to the present are presented in changing exhibitions. The Kunsthalle Göppingen is a renowned museum that is primarily dedicated to contemporary art. However, classical modernism is not neglected here either. Geologically, the Swabian Alb is one of the most interesting European regions. Riddled like Swiss cheese, there is a widely interconnected cave system here. The Laichinger Tiefenhöhle is one of the deepest showcaves in Germany. With a total length of 1,348 meters and a depth of 86 meters, it is one of the most significant karst objects of the Swabian Alb. You descend into the massive shafts via several iron staircases and can admire the large halls. Numerous impressive caves, such as the Wimsener Cave, are already waiting to be explored by you! Another highlight is the Swabian Alb Biosphere Area, which has been included by UNESCO in the circle of the world's most significant cultural landscapes. Between Zweifalten, Weilheim an der Teck, Schelklingen, and Reutlingen, one of the most spectacular natural spaces in the world is located.
