Be active, enjoy culture and unwind. In the Tübingen district, this can be combined in a unique way. At the foot of the Swabian Alb, bordered by the Schönbuch Nature Park in the north and the Albtrauf in the south, the landscape impresses with its diverse offerings - especially for active holidaymakers. Wooded heights, sun-drenched vineyards, fragrant orchards and romantic river valleys are an event in every season. Picturesque places, palaces, fortresses and museums ensure a special cultural experience. And with the regional specialties of Swabian cuisine and their first-class wines, nothing is left to be desired.


Cycling

Whether it’s a circular tour or a long-distance cycle path, mountain bike or trekking bike: pure cycling fun awaits you along more than 1000 km of signposted routes! The varied route through town, forest, mountain and valley offers cycling pleasure for beginners and advanced bikers.

Hiking

Narrow, natural paths lead you right outside the city gates through fragrant meadow orchards, mighty forests or along babbling brooks. Hiking lovers get their money's worth on short circular routes with little incline, demanding day tours and stages of long-distance hiking trails.

The towns in the region are as diverse as the nature around the Fruchttrauf: the student town of Tübingen is always full of life and has a unique flair. In the small town pearl of Rottenburg, things are a little more comfortable: you can enjoy ice cream on the Neckar or a coffee by the cathedral.
