Routes between wetland habitats and the Kammel
One route runs past newly created wetland habitats via Keuschlingen and Behlingen to Unterrohr. Its course combines a distinctive landscape feature with a series of named places. If you enjoy seeing not just a single destination but also the journey between places as part of an outing, this offers a clear theme to follow.
One cycling route crosses the Kammel twice; the second crossing is shortly before Hammerstetten. Another route runs from Unterrohr along the Kammel in the direction of Ettenbeuren. The routes offer different points of reference: one follows the river crossings and Hammerstetten, while the other starts in Unterrohr and heads towards Ettenbeuren. This makes it possible to choose based on specific route itineraries rather than simply deciding between cycling and hiking.
Wettenhausen Monastery: architecture and tradition
Wettenhausen Monastery is a destination on a route in Kammeltal. In the Imperial Hall, the monumental stucco ceiling is a striking feature: it pays homage to the House of Austria. The hall is also used for a variety of purposes, hosting concerts, conferences and ceremonies. Its architecture and range of events give the site several cultural facets.
Wettenhausen Monastery Museum opened in 2021 and offers insights into the monastery’s nearly thousand-year tradition. The Imperial Hall and the museum each have a different focus: the hall showcases a particular decorative feature, while the museum explores the monastery’s long history. If you would like to include culture in your holiday plans, you can choose between architecture and a broader historical theme.
More options in the wider Günzburg destination
The wider Günzburg destination offers other attractions with a different focus. The DonAuwald hiking trail is considered the first premium hiking trail in Bavarian Swabia and runs for around 60 kilometres between Günzburg and Schwenningen. Its length and two endpoints make it an extensive hiking route. LEGOLAND® Deutschland in Günzburg offers something different: the theme park has 11 themed lands and 68 attractions. The theme park and its adjoining holiday village offer experiences for children aged 2 to 12.
