Through Upper Danube Valley to Tuttlingen

There is an attractive trip from Sigmaringen to Tuttlingen through the upper Danube valley. The road follows the north bank of the river, passing the ruined castles of Gebrochen Gutenstein and Falkenstein and some extraordinary rock formations.

Beuron, a pilgrimage center, has a monastery founded in the 11th century, secularised in 1802 and reoccupied by Benedictines in 1863. It has a notable Baroque church.

The road continues via Fridingen (near which is the Kolbingen Cave) to Tuttlingen.
