Planning for a round trip in Southern Germany:

The round trip we did in Northern Germany 2022 was exiting, now 2023 we are planning a similar train tour in Southern Germany. We have read that Germany will sell these train/bus tickets even 2023 with start in May. They will not cost 9 Euro this year but 49 Euro and last for one month. Still very cheap.

Germany use Euro so the money will not be a problem and the internet by the smartphone is free for us in EU.

The new trip, 2023:

This time we travel by train and can only follow the way where there are rails. We have started to list interesting stays along a possible trip. We plan for a three weeks travel, but looks that we need six weeks, at least:

This are the stops we start with in our planning. These are only the big ones where there is a railway station. Between them there are a lot of nice small towns. Now we will go through all of them and see what's interesting for us. The stops as it looks for the moment:

Places we want to visit:

An earlier visit in Southern Germany:

I visited Southern Germany already 1988 by car with friends. A great memory for me, you can follow that trip here: Germany 1988.

Our first stop at an old town, Wurzburg, 1988.

Rothenburg ob der Tauber 1988, very nice memories from this town, We hope for a stop even on this new trip.

One of the last stops, Heidelberg.

A possible order how we take the stops on our new trip:

The short alternative 1 is 1317 km long, not much for three weeks travel.
