Vacation in the Swabian Alb biosphere area
Embedded in the Ermstal, in the middle of the UNESCO biosphere reserve and in the Swabian Alb Geopark, the romantic half-timbered town of Bad Urach invites you to linger. Often referred to as the pearl of the Swabian Alb, Bad Urach is the ideal starting point for a hiking holiday.
For a hiking tour around Bad Urach, the five premium hiking trails “Grafensteige” with the Wasserfallsteig, which was named Germany's most beautiful hiking trail in 2016, and the equally varied Hohenurachsteig, Hohenwittlingensteig, Hochberg and Seeburgsteig, are ideal. Sporty, but not alpine, the half-day tours lead to the beauties of the former volcanic area.
Roaring waterfalls, impressive castle ruins, lush green beech forests and gigantic viewing rocks along the edge of the Albtrauf, make the area around the city a real paradise for hikers.
But not only the topic of hiking, also the topic of health is very important in Bad Urach. The thermal water at 61 degrees gushes from a depth of 770 meters and feeds our thermal mineral bath, the AlbThermen.
Have fun exploring and be amazed, we look forward to your visit!
