Discover Bad Rodach

Bad Rodach offers a variety of ways to plan your stay: cycling routes, the outdoor pool and ThermeNatur sit alongside walking paths, local history and an observation tower. When looking for a hotel in Bad Rodach, you can start by asking yourself which of these themes matter most for your trip. The differences between the activities can help you choose a focus that suits you.

Compare cycling routes by length and route

Two circular cycling routes differ both in length and in their routes. The 14-kilometre tour goes from Bad Rodach to Oettingshausen and back. The second loop is 12 kilometres long and runs from Bad Rodach via Gauerstadt and back to Bad Rodach. The stated route lengths therefore differ by two kilometres; the places named along the way also provide a specific point of comparison. Both routes are described as circular tours. Check local conditions before setting out.

Outdoor pool and spa park: water or walking paths

The Bad Rodach outdoor pool is a seasonal open-air swimming facility. Its amenities include a 50-metre pool, a separate non-swimmer area and a toddler area with a slide. There is also a playground. Since it is open seasonally and opening dates vary, check the current opening hours before your visit.

The spa park on the Therme hill offers another way to spend time outdoors. It covers just under 12 hectares and is criss-crossed by several walking paths. A walk here focuses on paths through an expansive park, while the cycling routes are defined by their stated distances and routes.

ThermeNatur and its pools

ThermeNatur in Bad Rodach has two indoor pools, a therapy pool and three outdoor pools with mineral water. There is also a sauna area and aqua fitness classes. The pools therefore differ in whether they are indoors or outdoors; the sauna and fitness classes offer additional options to consider when planning. If you are interested in a particular aqua fitness class, check the operator’s latest programme information.

Local history museum and town history

The local history museum is located on the upper floor of the Jagdschloss – Haus des Gastes in Bad Rodach. Its collections cover the town’s history and local economy. The Rodach Local History Museum was founded in 1905 with the support of Rodach’s residents, under the direction of city treasurer Ferdinand Berner. It commemorates key moments in the town’s history. The museum thus brings together the present-day location of the collections and a history that dates back to its founding in the early 20th century.

Henneberger Warte and panorama

The Henneberger Warte is 30 metres tall and has stood on the 403-metre-high Georgenberg since 1987. The two height measurements refer to different things: the observation tower and the mountain on which it stands. From the tower, the panoramic view stretches from the Rhön in the northwest across the Thuringian Forest and the Coburg region to the Fränkische Leuchte and Heldburg Fortress. The viewpoint thus adds sweeping views of the named landscapes and landmarks to the activities available in Bad Rodach.
