We are travelling there in October? Any suggestions between Fussen and Rothenberg?
There is a website for the Romantic Road at www.romanticroad.com, or, if you can read German, www.romantischestrasse.de.
I think if I were going to spend a night or two on the road (twix Füssen and Rothenburg), I would pick Nördlingen. Like Rothenburg, it has a nearly intact wall. Harburg, with a most interesting castle is only 15-20 minutes away by train; Dinkelsbühl, another walled city is less than an hour away by bus.
I am also going there in October and will be spending a night in Nördlingen.
Wendy,
Between Fussen and Rothenburg - what about Munich for a few nights?
