Schorndorf
Accommodation in Schorndorf
A water feature and climbing equipment at the adventure playground, an exercise trail, paths through the forest and a cycling route that runs right through town: Schorndorf offers plenty of reasons to spend time outdoors. There is also an annual folk theatre performance in July. When planning your stay, you can decide whether exercise in town, a hike with a view or a bike ride is most important to you.
Play, Climbing and Exercise
The adventure playground is at the entrance to Schorndorf when approaching from Michelsneukirchen. Its facilities include an integrated football pitch, a water feature, and balance and climbing equipment. The football pitch is for playing and letting off steam, while the different features offer various ways to put your skills to the test. The site also has the Funbox skate park. If you like to include different opportunities for exercise in your stay, you’ll find a playground and skate park in one place here.
The fitalParc adds another option: an exercise trail with several stations and a series of pieces of equipment. You can train your coordination and strength. The facilities have different focuses: the playground centres on play, the football pitch and the water feature, while the fitalParc offers exercises at its trail stations. This makes it easier to include different interests in your plans for an active stay.
Hiking Trails with Different Highlights
Hiking trail Sd01 follows the Längseugenweg, a shady forest path with viewpoints. The described route runs from Thierling via Neuhaus within the municipality of Schorndorf. The route recommends a stop to visit the castle complex in Neuhaus. If you’d like to include this stop, check access before your visit.
The Sd02 circular trail starts at the information board in Schorndorf and goes via Hötzing, Kühberg, Sandberg, Thierling and Stegmühle before returning to the starting point. The trail therefore passes through several named places on its way back to where it began. Shortly before Thierling, a field path opens up views of Schorndorf and its surroundings. The circular trail also passes the Hötzing estate, which has a beer garden where you can stop for refreshments and an old wooden skittle alley; check the opening hours before your planned visit.
The described highlights can help you choose between the hikes: Sd01 follows the shady forest path and recommends a visit to Neuhaus, while Sd02 is a circular trail with named stops that passes the Hötzing estate. You can then decide whether you’d prefer to include the forest path or the loop with an opportunity to stop for refreshments in your plans.
Cycling Route and Theatre in July
There’s also a cycling route that runs right through Schorndorf: the international Regensburg–Cham–Pilsen Festival Cycle Route. Together with the hiking trails, it offers another way to include the surrounding area in your travel plans. Every July, the Schorndorf amateur theatre group stages folk theatre against the backdrop of Neuhaus Castle in its “Theatre at Neuhaus Castle” production. For specific performance details, check the latest local event listings.
Choosing the Right Holiday Apartment
If you’d like play and exercise to be a central part of your stay, you can consider the adventure playground and fitalParc when choosing where to stay. For a trip with hikes, the different highlights of Sd01 and Sd02 take centre stage; cyclists can also consider including the Festival Cycle Route through Schorndorf in their plans.
