Hi, everyone! Debating whether to make Regensburg a day trip from Munich, or just leave Munich a day early and stay the night in Regensburg before traveling on to Fussen. It's going a little bit in the wrong direction, but we wouldn't be as pressed for time once we got into Regensburg since we could stay for an evening. Thoughts?

I've never visited Regensburg but have read mainly very good reviews about it on this forum. I dislike frequent location changes and for me it's close enough to catch some of the evening ambiance and return to Munich, if that is your thought. Direct trains close to 9, 10 and 11pm (1.5 hours).
Easier the next day to reach Fussen.

I did the Munich to Regensburg back to Munich as a day trip earlier this year. It is easy to do and Regensburg, with all due respect, just isn't that big. Great little town, nice museum of the salt trade, fun "Dachel Museum" if you know anyone who need Dachshund stuff (my daughter has two)... Nice restaurants and cafes. Have fun.

We did it as a day trip from Munich in December. We used our Bayern Pass and spent the day and took the train back after the Christmas market and dinner. We didn’t feel rushed. For us it was worth it as the train ride was easy and I dislike changing hotels if possible.

I usually stay 2-3 nights when I visit. There's a lot to see and do. You can see the old town in a day, but that's about all.

I like the feeling/mood/stimmung in Regensburg. A good part of that is the cafe, bars and restaurants. I would overnight, but take advantage of evening. Find some local places and/or places you find and enjoy.
