Bockwurst, sauerkraut, beer and wine. And the typically
expertly built houses, Christmas markets, Kneipe and Schlager music. All
of the things we associate with Germany.
But there’s lots more: plenty of opportunities for relaxation, culture,
or just getting out in the nature, enjoying the historical cities and varied
countryside. The diverse scenery and culture offer plenty of possibilities!
Germany is extremely suitable for an active holiday and has no fewer than
forty thousand kilometres of cycle routes and many wonderful walking routes.
But it's also a country for winter activities, with the German Alps, the
Black Forest and Bayern.
The Beieren region is diverse and hospitable. Drive down the “Deutsche Alpenstrasse”
for instance or visit the fairytale castle at Neuschwanstein. Don’t forget
the many culinary events including the famous “Oktoberfest” in Munich.
The Eifel is also a very interesting region and great for an active holiday.
Enjoy the wonderful countryside here, with woods and volcanic lakes. Visit
Trier, the oldest town in the country. In short: Germany is ideal for both
long and short holidays, and really not far away!
