Holidays In Germany

The Wadden Sea along Germany’s North Sea coast is a unique natural landscape. Walk through the mudflats or cool off in the sea. Take a boat to Helgoland, Germany’s only offshore island, or relax on Sylt’s dream beaches and enjoy its chic North German charm.

The Baltic Sea is a great destination year-round. In summer, swim or surf in the refreshing water. In winter, unwind in the serene landscapes of Rügen or Darß. For even more relaxation, visit the Mecklenburg Lake District, where pure nature awaits.

Culture and joie de vivre await on the edge of the Black Forest in Heidelberg or Freiburg, great starting points for your trip. Swim in Lake Titisee, hike around Feldberg, visit the Cuckoo Clock Museum, or take a scenic train through Höllental. The Black Forest is perfect for a family holiday.

Of course, no holiday in Bavaria would be complete without a visit to Neuschwanstein Castle. A trip to Munich is also a must. But Bavaria has much more to offer, including lakes like Chiemsee or Starnberger See, the Alps, and the Bavarian Forest, Germany’s real primeval forest.

The Wadden Sea is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a unique natural landscape in northern Germany. On the eastern side of Sylt, you can thoroughly explore the mudflats with a hike. Learn all about this unique natural wonder and be enchanted by the landscape. 

Neuschwanstein Castle is Germany’s most famous fairytale castle. Built by King Ludwig II in neo-Romanesque style, its turrets and battlements captivate visitors. For the best photos, visit early for the morning mist or at sunset for a magical glow.

Berlin, once bombed, divided, and at the heart of the Cold War, is now a united capital full of modern history. A city tour is always a highlight. In autumn and winter, theatres and opera thrive, while summer sees the city move outdoors to parks, beer gardens, and lakes.

Dresden, often called "Florence on the Elbe," boasts the Zwinger, Semperoper, and the rebuilt Frauenkirche, giving the city’s baroque skyline a distinctive look. From Dresden, it's just a short hop to the Elbe Sandstone Mountains, with a dense network of hiking trails waiting to be explored. 

The Rheinsteig stretches over 300 km along the right bank of the Rhine between Wiesbaden and Bonn. You can start anywhere to explore the Loreley, Burg Rheinfels, Kloster Eberbach, or the old town of Bacharach. Enjoy breathtaking views of the Rhine Valley, castles, and vineyards along the way.

The Mittelweg spans over 230 kilometres from Pforzheim to Waldshut, with moderate difficulty. It takes you through the Black Forest, with lush meadows, pine forests, and peaceful valleys. Highlights include the Triberg Waterfalls, the Gernsbach Legend Trail, and Feldberg, the highest peak.

This nearly 7.5-kilometre route is easy for beginners. As you circle Lake Eibsee, you'll enjoy stunning mountain views, including Germany's highest peak, the Zugspitze, and the clear waters of the lake. 

Saxon Switzerland offers diverse hiking opportunities. Highlights include the Bastei, Rathen, and the Polenz Valley. The trails range from easy to challenging, attracting visitors from around the world every year.
