Geographically, Iggingen lies at the foot of the Härtsfeld and is surrounded by picturesque forests. The surrounding area offers a variety of hiking and cycling trails as well as opportunities for climbing or fishing.

The most tourist-relevant sights are Fachsenfeld Castle, a magnificent 18th-century baroque palace with a beautiful garden, and Lorch Monastery, which is considered an important cultural monument and is still inhabited by monks.

Cultural highlights can be found above all in the numerous museums in the region, such as the Museum im Prediger in Schwäbisch Gmünd or the Alamannenmuseum Ellwangen. Regular events such as the town festival or the Christmas market also offer visitors an insight into local culture.

If you want to go on a culinary voyage of discovery, you should definitely try regional specialities such as Spätzle mit Soß', Maultaschen or Swabian potato salad. The local breweries and wineries are also a special recommendation.

For active holidaymakers there are many possibilities: In summer you can try gliding over the mountains or take a canoe tour on the river Brenz. In winter, a ski trip to the nearby Alps is tempting.

Even when the weather is bad, there is plenty to discover. Visit the thermal baths in Aalen or enjoy a cup of coffee in one of the cosy cafés in the town centre.

The most beautiful spot in Iggingen is undoubtedly the vantage point on the Härtsfeld Tower, from where you have a breathtaking view over the entire region.

Overall, Iggingen is definitely worth a visit and offers something for everyone. This travel guide is designed to help you get the most out of your stay here!

    Sehr ruhige Etappe, recht eben und viel Asphalt, aber schöner Ausblick Eichtung Aalen, Heubach und die Kaiserberge. Und wenn einem die dasselbe Wegeführung entlang der Strasse nervt, darf man auch gern selbst in die Karte der App schauen und andere Wege gehen, abseits der Straße. Das tut dem Ausblick auf die oben genannten Berge keinen Abbruch.

    Wir sind auf der vielleicht schönsten Etappe, der Etappe 1 geradelt. Weinberge, Streuobstwiesen, durch das romantische Untere Remstal: eine tolle Radtour mit nur wenigen Höhenmetern. Einen ausführlichen Bericht findet ihr auf unserem Blog: https://jungwandern.de/remstal-radweg/

    Nach dem Rehnenmühlen Stausee geht es ein gutes Stück an der Straße entlang. Sie ist nicht viel befahren allerdings ist dieser Wegabschnitt nicht so toll. Kurz vor Striethof kommt ein Weg den man auf Grund von Privatbesitz nicht betreten darf. Wir haben uns dann bergauf quer durch den Wald gekämpft... Ansonsten: so toller mit Moos bewachsener Wald. Kaum Menschen... einfach herrlich!!!

    Die Route ist in beide Fahrtrichtungen, also sowohl in der bei hier hinterlegten Fahrrichtung als auch in die Gegenrichtung aus Aalen kommend ausgeschildert. in den Orten muss man schon arg aufpassen, dass man auf dem Weg bleibt Punkt ab und zu fehlt vielleicht ein Schild, oder ich habe es übersehen.

    Eine sehr reizvolle und landschaftlich extrem abwechslungsreiche Tour - absolut empfehlenswert. Aber....es ist keine leichte Tour! Neben den Steigungen, die eine gute Grundkondition verlangen, sind vor allem die Abfahrten auf Schotter und in den Wäldern anspruchsvoll und für Ungeübte sehr anstrngend - technisch. Wir sind am Busbahnhof Abtsgmünd gestartet, es ist nicht empfehlenswert, die Richtung der Runde zu ändern!!
