Located at the top of some parking space guides, we have chosen this parking space as our first destination. And despite the low season - completely occupied. We looked at it again later. Really great. But the town is also really worth seeing. So go on. We found a parking space in the neighboring village.

That's why we ended up here. Just one place further we got the penultimate parking space, but mobile phones can still be parked on the adjacent meadow if you don't need electricity.
Shower, toilet, kiosk at the swimming pond and with the bike in the place to the bakery and butcher no problem. Very nice place.

A parking space - almost like a campsite - with a sanitary house and washing machine. With good organization and an even better rating. There are bread rolls as well as the check-in at the gas station.

Located near the Limes, the old Roman settlement with a well-preserved historic old town is a worth seeing destination for a short trip on the day of arrival.

... we already read as a guide on the way to Treuchtlingen what aroused our curiosity. It is a natural phenomenon that a stream moves upwards here due to the precipitation of lime. Is there more often than not, we didn't know it until then.

On the way back to Treuchtlingen you should definitely pay a visit to the Wettelsheimer Keller. The delicious beer of a small private brewery and the beer garden kitchen is known and popular (and cheap)

Along the Altmühl from Treuchtlingen towards Eichstätt is often referred to as the king's stage of the Altmühl cycle path. Passing Pappenheim you come to the 12 apostles, a rock formation on the Altmühl. We have found a circular route that takes us back to Treuchtlingen on an attractive route from Altendorf.

A parking space for over 200 mobiles at one of the region's tourist attractions - the large Brombachsee. With every comfort - a little too big for us.

One of the hottest pitches I've visited so far. Newly laid out for the 2019 garden show, the grasses have now grown so large that the 12 parking spaces are very demarcated. We had our private room with a concrete table and bench.
V + E perfect and even toilet and shower a few meters away in the sundial park for little money. A reason to visit Wassertrüdingen once.
But also as a starting point for bike tours ingeniously located on the Wörnitz.

Probably the most beautiful old town in Germany attracts many tourists. From Wassertrüdingen only 25 km away, a trip along the Wörnitz is a nice bike ride. We didn't find a round trip, but we weren't angry either to drive back the same way, as it gave a completely different view of the landscape. On the way back, it is worth visiting the lard mill, which produces very good cheese.

We start the tour to Nördlingen via Öttingen, which is really worth seeing and has nothing in common with the cheap beer that is at home here. Further along the Wörnitz, we then turn off at Fischbach to visit Nördlingen. In the middle of the Ries, a huge crater from the early days, we are already here in Swabia before we return to Wassertrüdingen via another route, but via Öttingen.

Conveniently located on the main street and a shopping center, but also within walking distance of the old town. V + E, electricity available and free of charge, what more could you want.

The Wörnitz cycle path begins at the source in Schillingsfürst and leads in just over 100 km to Donauwörth, where it flows into the Danube.
We drove part of it and made a round trip out of it.

Wir besuchen das historische Städtchen Ornbau mit der Altmühlbrücke und radeln Altmühl aufwärts bis Herrieden. Hier wenden wir uns Richtung Norden und statten der Kreisstadt Ansbach einen Besuch ab.
In der Nähe des Limes gelegen ist die alte Römersiedlung mit einer gut erhaltenen historischen Altstadt sehenswertes Ziel für einen Kurztrip am Anreisetag.
... haben wir auf dem Weg nach Treuchtlingen schon als Wegweiser gelesen, was unsere Neugier geweckt hat. Ein Naturphänomen, dass hier ein Bachlauf durch Ausfällung von Kalk nach oben verlegt. Gibt es wohl häufiger, wir kannten es bis dahin noch nicht.
Auf dem Rückweg nach Treuchtlingen sollte man dem Wettelsheimer Keller unbedingt einen Besuch abstatten. Das leckere Bier einer kleinen Privatbrauerei und die Biergartenküche ist bekannt und beliebt (und günstig)

Entlang der Altmühl von Treuchtlingen Richtung Eichstätt wird gerne auch als die Königsetappe des Altmühl Radweges bezeichnet. Vorbei an Pappenheim kommt man zu den 12 Aposteln, einer Felsformation an der Altmühl. Wir haben einen Rundweg gefunden, der uns auf attraktiver Strecke ab Altendorf wieder nach Treuchtlingen zurückbringt.

incl. Abstecher nach Pleinfeld, der sich nicht lohnt. Die Geschichte dieses relativ jungen Sees als Wasserspeicher für die Region ist interessant und am Wegesrand vielfach gut erklärt. Ansonsten einfach nur ein Paradies für Wassersportler.
Die wohl schönste Altstadt Deutschlands lockt viele Touristen. Von Wassertrüdingen nur 25 km entfernt ist ein Ausflug entlang der Wörnitz eine schöne Radtour. Eine Rundtour haben wir nicht gefunden, waren aber auch nicht böse, den gleichen Weg zurückzufahren, da sich ein ganz anderer Blick auf die Landschaft ergab. Auf dem Rückweg lohnt der Besuch der Schmalzmühle, die einen sehr guten Käse produzieren.

Die Tour nach Nördlingen starten wir über Öttingen, das wirklich sehenswert ist und nichts mit dem Billigbier, welches hier beheimatet ist, gemein hat. Weiter entlang der Wörnitz biegen wir dann bei Fischbach ab, um Nördlingen zu besuchen. Mitten im Ries, einem riesigen Krater aus der Frühzeit gelegen, sind wir hier schon in Schwaben, bevor es auf anderem Weg, aber wieder über Öttingen nach Wassertrüdingen zurück geht.

Hallo
Wir freuen uns das ihr eine so tolle Reise erlebt habt, und diese auch total super uns erklärt u d mitgeteilt habt.
Wollen wir unbedingt auch machen und freuen uns dank eurer Reiseanleitung umso mehr.
Vielen Dank nochmals und ganz liebe Grüsse aus??
Da wird einem der Mund wässerig gemacht! Unsere Heimat ist sehenswert! Danke für den anregenden Bericht!
Freut mich :-)
Danke für die schöne Beschreibung. Die Schönheit der Altstadt von Dinkelsbühl kann ich bestätigen. Wir waren vor ein paar Jahren in Wassertrüdingen im Radl-Hotel und hatten eine Tagestour nach Dinkelsbühl und zurück gemacht (da hatten wir noch kein Wohnmobil). Es hat uns sehr gefallen.
Ich werde diese Tourenbeschreibung zum Anlass nehmen, die Gegend im kommenden Jahr noch einmal ausführlicher zu erkunden.
Die Region ist es wert. Ihr werdet es sicher nicht bereuen.
