Fruit orchard directly on the B 29 near the A7
An orchard meadow near Westhausen with 55 fruit trees on fenced grounds. Those who camp are self-sufficient: there's a fire pit and firewood, but little else. At the eastern end, a beehive hums, and the grass there is left long. Children have room to roam between the trees. After heavy rain, the meadow closes to protect the trees from damage. It's not far to Nördlingen with its city walls, and the Rieskrater Museum explains why the landscape here is so flat. In the evening: bees and leaves.1

Sights in the area1
Nördlingen Town Wall
Nördlingen's fully walkable wall encircles the entire old town. The loop along the covered rampart shows the round city from above and takes a good hour.
The Daniel
The „Daniel", the tower of St. George's church, rises over Nördlingen. From the top, on a clear day, the view reaches across the whole Ries crater basin, the lookout of the area.
Ries Crater Museum
The Ries Crater Museum in Nördlingen explains how a meteorite shaped the Ries millions of years ago. The rainy-day classic when the orchard is off-limits after heavy rain anyway.
