Munich and Romantic Road - will this itinerary work?

I have only 2 and 1/2 days to explore Munich and the Romantic Road. I will be starting from Munich. My plan is as follows:

Day 1 - (Only a half day because I don't arrive in Munich until noon). Spend the day exploring Munich.

Day 2 - Get up really early and drive down to visit Schloss Neuschwanstein (1 and 1/2 hour drive?). Then drive back up the Romantic Road to Munich stopping at any towns of interest on the way such as Fussen and Pfaffenwinkel. Then spend the rest of the day exploring Munich (if any time is left?).

Day 3 - Leave Munich. Drive North up the Romantic Road, stopping at Dinkelsbuhl and Nordlingen, ending up at Rothenburg. Spend a few hours exploring Rothenburg. Continue on to Stuttgart (1 and 1/2 hour drive?) where I will be spending the night. (Will I have time to stop at Dinkelsbuhl and Nordlingen or should I skip them?)

My main concern is that driving times will be much longer than they appear due to traffic. Should I be conerned about this?

A quick answer for you..sorry but getting late here.

You will find your itinerary quite hard to accomplish due to the slow route to Neuschwanstein. I live 2 hours north of Munich and the castle is an all day trip for me. You will, however be able to drive there from Munich and back in a relatively short amount of time if you elect to bypass the tour of the castle. Remember that the castle is perched atop a mountain that takes some time to scale.

With your plans to do Rothenburg and Stuttgart in the same day may prove to be a bit of a stretch as well unless you are driving a BMW or Mercedes of some sort. I mean the drive is quite feasible but actually having time to see the sites in these two great towns will be quite a feat indeed.

I think your best bet would be visiting the castle on day two and then driving from there to Stuttgart that same night and finding a hotel. The next morning you can see the major attractions there before heading off to Rothenburg. From Rothenburg you will still have time to visit Nurenberg for a evening walk in the old town before heading back to Munich. Its a nice easy circle that will allow you the best opportunity to see some great things.

Hope that helps!

First, I´am from Munich and I made all the trips you are planning.
1st. day (and 1/2): there is quite a lot to visit in Munich an you should make a good plan. the Munich castle (Nymphenburg) with its parc is beautiful as well as the Marienplatz (centre). Use the public transportation and you will be able to visit a number of sights in town.
2nd day: Depending on the season it´ll take 2 or 3 hours just for visitig the castle. If you also want to see all the towns on the south romantic road, this will be a very long day for you. When the weather is fine, Pfaffenwinkel and Füssen are beautiful, if its raining, you better drop it. So, if you get up early you can do it. You will return to Munich late.
3rd. day: I made this tour in one day including the return to Munich. So you can do it, too. I´d suggest you to rent a horsewagon and make a guided tour through Dinkelsbühl as i think it is mor beautiful than Rothenburg. Do not spend too much time in Nördlingen. And get up early. Consider that driving on the Autobahn (highway) is much faster as there´ll be not too much traffic and you can drive much faster.

I have done the route only in the reverse order. On day 2 I would consider staying over in Fussen rather than driving back to Munich. The Neuschwanstein castle tour may take a few hours.
Traffic on the side road is much slower than on the Autobahn, and the road is not as direct.I think you will be fortunate to keep your schedule.
Enjoy and good luck

It is 220 miles long. Averaging 30 miles per hour it will take 7.5 hours non stop. - I don't think your idea is practicable.

It's a rush, but it could work out.

If Heidelberg is on your route, don't forget to stop there. There is a lovely castle there and it is considered the romantic city of Germany by Germans.
