Bad Urach, climatic health resort and spa in the heart of the Swabian Alb.
Fantastic hiking trails, hot thermal springs, Swabian delicacies and a medieval half-timbered town – Bad Urach
offers its guests unforgettable experiences in a magnificent low mountain landscape.
The small town is part of the UNESCO Swabian Alb Biosphere Reserve and not without reason: rushing waterfalls,
impressive castle ruins, lush green beech forests and gigantic viewing cliffs along the edge of the Albtrauf make
the area around the town a real hiking paradise. The five premium “Grafensteige” hiking trails are ideal for a
fantastic hiking tour. Sporty but not alpine, the varied half-day tours lead to the beauties around Bad Urach.
A bath in the pleasantly warm thermal mineral water of the AlbThermen Bad Urach promises a break for body
and soul. The fresh water comes from two 61°C hot, natural healing springs that are 770 meters deep
underground.
The old town impresses with its great history: not only the magnificent half-timbered houses around the historic
market square, but also the residential palace with interiors from the Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque periods
and the late Gothic collegiate church of St. Amandus invite you to take a stroll through the city.
