Bad Saulgau is situated in the area between Danube river and Lake Constanze. It is a rural town with a population of around 15,000. One clear advantage is its very situation not far away from Lake Constance, Black Forest, the Alps, Austria and Switzerland. Its pub and restaurant scene is also quite remarkable. (Try "Paradies" for the best pint of Pils beer and excellent hash brown potatoes) Our greatest asset, however, is the thermal spa. It´s a unique experience to swim in a hot outdoor pool, while it is snowing . Incidentally, the word "Bad" has nothing to do with vicious, it is German for spa. Also, Saulgau is noted for its traditions and customs. Carnival at Saulgau is certainly a memorable experience, although I myself prefer CARNAVAL in Rio de Janeiro. Also, there is the annual 'Bächtlefest' which features a two-hour pageant with colourful floats and fanciful costumes, not to forget the huge beer tent and the enormous fairground. It is held every year in July and it certainly is one of the major events in the region. To foreigners it is possibly a smaller - and much friendlier - edition of the Munich Beer Festival.

Bächtlefest takes place each year in mid-July. It starts on Thursday night and lasts until Monday. The climax is the big historical pageant on Monday morning.
