Maps and trails
The geographical location of this region is unique. The city lies between the rolling hills of the Swabian Jura and the majestic course of the Danube River. Visitors can enjoy the breathtaking scenery by cycling along the cycle path or on a boat tour through the picturesque surroundings.

One of the most important sights in Dillingen is the castle with its magnificent baroque style. Here you will also find the Museum of Art and Cultural History, which houses a collection of historical artefacts from different eras.

In Medlingen you should definitely take a walk through the old town to admire the well-preserved half-timbered houses. Another highlight is the Marienberg Monastery with its impressive 17th century architecture.

For lovers of culinary delights, there are many options here: Try local specialities such as Maultaschen or Swabian lentil dishes in a traditional inn or visit the weekly market for fresh fruit and vegetables straight from the farm.

Outdoor activities are also very popular here - hiking, cycling or canoeing are just a few examples. In summer, a day of swimming at the nearby quarry pond is a good idea.

But even in rainy weather, there is plenty to discover in Medlingen and Dillingen an der Donau. Visit the cinema or the town library, for example, to spend a cosy day indoors.

The best time to visit is in spring or summer, when the countryside is in full bloom and many outdoor activities are possible. In winter, on the other hand, you can visit the Christmas market and let yourself be enchanted by the festive atmosphere.

Overall, Medlingen and Dillingen an der Donau are worth a visit - with its impressive natural scenery, historical sights as well as culinary delights, this region offers everything you need for an unforgettable stay.

    Sehr schöne Rundwanderung die man, vorausgesetzt, dass der Schnee nicht zu hoch liegt, durchaus auch im Winter bewältigen und bewandern kann und auch sehr beschrieben ist. Im Gegenteil da sind manch Motive besonders reizvoll. Nicht unbedingt für Kinderwagen geeignet
