Those who like to be active will find plenty of opportunities to do so in Scheer and Sigmaringen. In summer, you can go hiking through the beautiful nature around the town - tours along the Danube cycle path or on the premium hiking trail "Donauversickerung" are particularly beautiful. Cyclists also get their money's worth here: through wide fields, past old castles and palaces, all the way to Lake Constance.

If it should rain, we recommend a visit to the Badkap leisure pool with sauna facilities or a tour of one of the many museums around the town.
