What does it feel like to walk barefoot through the forest? And where does that narrow staircase in the castle tower lead? Travelling with children makes you look a little closer. In Germany, winding castle walls, meandering trails and lively cities leave plenty of room for curiosity. In between, there is always time for a swim in the lake – and for plans that can change along the way.
Walking barefoot along a forest trail, setting off on a discovery tour in a museum or enjoying an ice cream after exploring the city: on a family holiday, happiness is often found in the moments you share. Germany offers plenty of variety. Treetop adventures and donkey walks make the outdoors even more exciting. Museums invite children to experiment and marvel, while cities surprise with playgrounds, green retreats and fascinating places to visit. Where will your family go next? Find inspiration for little adventures, big discoveries and quality time together.
Children are welcome: where the little ones take the main stage
Families and museums don't always go hand in hand – except when museums focus on children, through their topics and educational content. And some of them are so good that the kids don't want to leave at all.
Families welcome: fun and games in 7 German cities
City breaks with the family? Of course! A relaxed journey by car or train, plus restaurants, ice cream parlours and countless playgrounds as well as entertainment from children's museums to zoos – all this makes for a perfect trip. These seven cities offer a particularly wide variety.
Flat terrain, lots to see: families love these 9 bike trails
Gentle paths, little traffic, and lots of nature make family bike trails a pleasure. This also applies to the younger generation, who can either enjoy the view from a bike trailer or pedal themselves. The good thing is that it's never far to the next playground, picnic spot, or swimming area. This is certainly true for these nine bike tours between the North Sea and Lake Constance. It's no surprise that they are recommended not only by parents, but also by the ADFC!
