    Tips

    With Gangelt you usually connect the wildlife park and the Selfkantbahn. However, the medieval town, which lies deep in the west, has a lot to offer with its two city gates and the remains of the castle and the city wall.

      Beautiful old town with city walls and towers. Nice story of conquest.
      Small cafes and restaurants

          Nice place, but there is nothing to do for MTB.

            Nice place with remains of the city wall and two completely preserved city gates. Cozy cafes and medieval buildings in the city. Gangelt is always worth a trip - not only because of the beautiful wildlife park in the south.

                  Beautiful historic town center between the two city gates.
