With some great road trip options in the surrounding area, renting a car makes sense. Without one, it’d be much harder to explore all that Halle, 20 miles away, has to offer. Among the first stops you make here ought to be Maya Mare, Zoo Halle and Giebichenstein Castle. Don’t skip Quedlinburg either! Just 25 miles away, Quedlinburg Castle, Quedlinburg Cathedral and St Nikolai Church are essential stops here.
