Tübingen is fascinating. The time-honored university town combines the solidity of half-timbered romance with the lively diversity of a young metropolis - enriched by the Mediterranean flair of the sunny south.
All the little pleasures of everyday life can be found here. Strolling, shopping, eating and drinking in Tübingen are a feast for the eyes and for the soul. Before going to the marketplace, first walk through the alleys. Behind every decorated shop window, behind every inviting entrance, a small world of things is hidden: exotic coffees and chocolates, teas from all over the world, furniture and accessories made of fine woods, colorful ceramics and colorful fabrics, artistic floral decorations, exquisite wines and spirits as well as fair trade goods of the most diverse provenance and of course - books. You can immerse yourself in all this and marvel at the splendor and variety that can be arranged so beguilingly on just a few half-timbered square meters. It is best to let your impressions sink in at one of Tübingen's wonderful cafés, restaurants and wine taverns.
There are more than 1,000 kilometers of signposted bike paths right outside the gates of Tübingen. If you swing into the saddle here, you will discover the contrasting and lively facet of the landscape of the Früchtetrauf. Cycling routes and themed trails open up romantic river valleys, charming villages and sun-drenched vineyards. Here, too, many unique landscape experiences and impressive views await.
