Alongside numerous local leisure regions such as the “Friedrichsau” or “Duft- und Tastgarten” (sensory garden) the region offers a zoo with aquarium, a botanical garden as well as several leisure baths, for example, “Wonnemar” in Neu-Ulm or “Bad Blau” in Blaustein. All these establishments are easily reached using the public transportation systems and thus offer a wide range of opportunities for rest and relaxation.

And if you want something to experience, that is also on offer too. The old fashioned car factory in Neu-Ulm offers car lovers the opportunity to wonder and dream, whereas Legoland in Guenzburg offers a variety and adventure for and with your children. With the construction of the new climbing hall in Neu-Ulm, a large climbing centre was created between Stuttgart and Munich and, for all fans of basketball and other sports or musical events, the “ratiopharmarena” which offers space for up to 6,000 people was built.

The Swabian Alb or the Danube Valley both invite visitors to hike or take a relaxed bike ride with the entire family.
