Overview
- Regional publishers released new spring lists that steer travelers to Baden‑Württemberg and Bavaria, including a 25‑site roundup and a free 20‑site “Heimatperlen” PDF for Baden‑Württemberg.
- After years of storm damage, the Marienschlucht at Lake Constance has reopened with a new panoramic walkway that lets visitors cross the gorge safely.
- Natural standouts in the guides include the Zugspitze, Germany’s highest peak at 2,962 meters with rail and cable access, and the Triberg waterfalls, the country’s highest at 163 meters.
- Family‑friendly picks range from Europa‑Park in Rust, Germany’s largest theme park, to the Technik Museum Sinsheim with aircraft exhibits and an IMAX theater.
- The lists are timed for spring travel and aim to help families choose short day trips across the south’s dense mix of lakes, castles, old towns, and UNESCO World Heritage sites.
