Romantic Road

About This Route

Step into a storybook on Germany’s oldest scenic route. Starting in the vineyard-clad Würzburg with its UNESCO Residenz, this route winds south through the Tauber Valley to Rothenburg ob der Tauber, the best-preserved medieval town in Germany. You will drive through the Nördlinger Ries crater and historic Augsburg before the Alps rise dramatically on the horizon. The journey culminates near Füssen with the fairytale castles of Hohenschwangau and the world-famous Neuschwanstein. For a VW T3, the pace is perfect to admire the shifting landscapes from river valleys to alpine foothills.
