You can watch how the cheese is made in almost all the alpine dairies.Ravensburg Spieleland amusement park
The famous German maker of toys and board games now has its own amusement park. The huge park offers countless games and rides from a "moorhen rodeo", crazy labyrinth and a Mercedes-Benz driving school to a fire brigade game. This is where you can play giant-sized and re-designed classic board games. Kids can sit at the wheel of snail cars, you can play the memory game from a helicopter and get a soaking from the water chute on the rollercoaster. The youngest visitors will enjoy themselves with rubber duck races.Rhine Falls at Schaffhausen
Set in a fairytale landscape, the Rhine Falls at Schaffhausen are the largest waterfalls in Europe, and are a truly magnificent spectacle. The falls are 150 metres wide and 23 metres high, and on average 700 cubic metres of water comes crashing over the rocks every second. You can feel the full force of this volume of water from the basin of the Rhine Falls. Taking an adventurous boat trip to the rock right into the middle of the basin is one of the highlights of any visit to the Falls. From Laufen Castle you can follow a footpath leading past the raging waters to the "pulpit" viewpoint right next to the Falls.
