Maps and trails
Geographically, Amerdingen lies between the Franconian Jura and the Swabian Alb and is surrounded by picturesque nature. The region is known for its hilly landscapes with vineyards and forests as well as numerous rivers such as the Danube or the Wörnitz.

One of the most important sights in Amerdingen is undoubtedly the St. Stephanus Church - an impressive baroque church from the 18th century with a beautiful domed ceiling. Another attraction are the historic half-timbered houses around the market square.

Cultural highlights are also many: Visit the local history museum or enjoy a concert in the castle courtyard of nearby Harburg Castle. Music and theatre festivals are also held regularly nearby.

For culinary connoisseurs, Amerdingen also has a lot to offer: Try local specialities such as "Spätzle" (homemade noodles) or "Maultaschen" (filled dumplings). Regional wines should also definitely be tasted!

The best time for outdoor activities in Amerdingen is from May to October, when the weather is pleasantly warm. Hikes through the idyllic landscape or bicycle tours along the rivers are recommended. Canoeing or fishing are also possible here.

When it rains, there are also many indoor activities in Amerdingen: Visit the nearby Ries Crater Museum, for example, or relax in one of the local wellness centres.

The best thing about Amerdingen, however, is the atmosphere of this charming place and the friendliness of its residents. Here you can really switch off and forget everyday life - definitely worth a destination!

    Elke hat mit viel Liebe zum Detail und geologischer Fachkenntnis eine sehr abwechslungsreiche Tour durch den Meteoritenkrater entworfen.Wir ritten diese Tour an 2 heißen,sonnigen Tagen.Es gibt genügend schattige,idyllische Waldwege und eine Kneippanlage lädt zum abkühlen und Pferde tränken ein.Die Etappen sind auch für Einsteiger gut zu schaffen.Für unsere Pferde und uns wurde an den Wanderreitstationen sehr gut gesorgt.Da wir als Schnittpunkt Leiheim gewählt hatten,unser Auto also auch zur Verfügung stand ,konnten wir noch das mittelalterliche Nördlingen mit seiner begehbaren Stadtmauer,dem Wachturm Daniel,von dem aus man den besten Rundumblick über den Krater hat,besuchen.Wir kommen wieder.Es gibt noch viel zu entdecken.
