Munich

Day Trip: Romantic Route

wuerzburg germany

This former trade route, now cheesily dubbed Romantische Strasse, kicks off in Würzburg and snakes toward Füssen (home to Neuschwanstein), past some of Germany’s most picturesque towns, castles and sweeping landscapes. It’s often more of a highway than a romantic route, however, so it’s best to come up with an itinerary of specific castles and medieval towns, rather than driving the whole route.

Driving time to Munich:

1 hour 40 minutes (to Würzburg)
