Touching down at Stuttgart Airport puts you right near the charming town of Filderstadt, Germany. With its abundance of lush greenery, historic sites, and opportunities for outdoor adventures, this picturesque locale is best explored by two wheels. Renting a scooter, motorcycle or quad is the ideal way to capture the spirit and sights of the region.
Wind your way through the rolling hills and vineyards along the Romantic Road, stopping to sample wine straight from the source. The landscape dotted with traditional "fachwerk" houses and Romanesque churches seems frozen in time. Don't miss the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Maulbronn Monastery, its medieval sandstone architecture drawing you back centuries.
Further satiate your thirst for history at the open-air museum Schulmuseum or immerse yourself in local artistic culture at Kunstmuseum Stuttgart. When you're ready for some fresh air, rev up your scooter and head for the lakes. Spend an afternoon swimming, sailing or hiking around the shores of Glemswald Lake before heading slightly out of town to tour the Steinlach-Osterberg caves.
The surrounding Black Forest is also begging to be explored by two wheels. Ride through valleys blanketed with pines, stopping to hike verdant trails leading to tumbling waterfalls. With your trusty rental scooter or motorcycle, you have the freedom to wander charming villages like Waldenbuch at your own pace.
Don't limit yourself to Filderstadt proper during your stay. Exciting day trips to Stuttgart, Tübingen, Ludwigsburg and beyond are made easy when you have your own set of wheels. Wherever your rental scooter or motorcycle takes you in the region, embrace the magic of discovery.
