In Baden and Swabia, medieval towns with idyllic half-timbered houses, unspoilt landscapes and culinary delights link culture, relaxation and pleasure in a most pleasant way. Hospitality is writ large, so you have the chance to discover not only the country and its people at the numerous festivals but also the cosy and comfortable atmosphere so typical of the region.
