Looking for a rolling Missouri countryside and gorgeous River Bluff views? Yes, please! That's what the heart of the Show-Me State is all about. Best of all? Hermann Hill is the perfect home base from which to discover all our region offers. So, read on for seven must-try ideas to inspire your next getaway, and we'll see you soon!

A getaway in Missouri should be nothing short of memorable Midwestern relaxation. And there's no better place to unwind than in one of our family and dog-friendly condos. Our luxurious condos offer both comfort and style — not to mention the views. You'll have plenty of space and all the amenities you need for a memorable escape.

No getaway in Hermann is complete without indulging in the local Missouri wine and food scene. Enjoy a wine-tasting tour at local vineyards and visit local distilleries, savoring some of our region's finest wines. Oh, and bring a bottle or two of your favorite back to enjoy at Hermann Hill.

Visiting with family and need to pass on the alcohol? Enjoy a selection of family-friendly mocktails bursting with local flavors. There's always something for everyone. 

With so many fabulous vineyards and restaurants to visit, we're confident you'll find the perfect drink to suit your taste, style, and preferences. But if you need any suggestions, our front desk staff is here to help you.

Outdoor enthusiasts looking for the perfect hike or walking tour to embrace their inner Marco Polo will love the options in the Hermann area. And yes, there are plenty of area trails for every experience level.

Check out our on-site 3-mile walking trail. It'll lead you through the peaceful woods to the center of town, where you can shop local boutiques, taste wine, visit historical sites, and much more.

Alternatively, journey along the Katy Trail by foot or bike; it's the longest rail-to-trail conversion in the country at 240 miles long.

Want something with a little more mystery for motivation? Try one of our scavenger hunts, where fun and adventure await at every turn, and make it a day!

Got a love for all things chocolate and wine? Then we have the ideal treat for you — an annual event along the Hermann Wine Trail. Visit six stops and sip, savor, and sample various chocolate and wine pairings. This event combines the best of both worlds — rich, decadent chocolate paired perfectly with local Missouri wine.

Whether you're a wine enthusiast or just looking for something sweet to try, this event is an absolute must, but the tickets sell fast, so grab yours while you can!

If you're not in the mood for wine, don't worry — we've also got plenty of other places in Hermann where you can indulge in delicious ice cream and other treats, like Sugar Momma’s, Espresso Laine, Stomp’n Grounds Espresso Bar, or Downtown Deli & Custard Shop to name a few.

Ready to get your history fix while having a little fun? Hermann's got enough history to keep you busy for days, and we're not talking about dusty, old, and snooze-worthy textbooks.

Stroll down the Hermann Heritage Trail and check out some seriously cool sites, such as the Deutschheim State Historic Site and the Historic Hermann Museum. In our charming area, you'll find over 110 buildings on the National Register of Historic Places — plenty to keep you busy.

This is perfect for any die-hard history nerd or someone who appreciates a town with serious character. History has never looked so good.

One of the highlights of your getaway in Missouri is sure to be the breathtaking sunsets over the Missouri River. And if you're looking for an escape that'll make others 'green' with envy? Your getaway to Hermann Hill will do the trick.

Best of all? Your stay guarantees you prime access to the River Bluff. So, go ahead and watch the sun dip below the rolling Missouri horizon. It's the perfect moment to pause, take it all in, and snap a few photos that will have your friends trolling your social and wondering how you got so lucky.

There's something about gathering around a fire that creates the best memories — the kind that leaves you feeling all warm and melty with every reminiscence. We have the perfect spot to create your own fireside memories — our fire pit on the deck, surrounded by comfortable seating and gorgeous views.

Settle in by the fire with someone special. Then, make some s'mores. Share stories and laugh while savoring wine or hot cocoa. Remember, it's your moment to shine. And these moments might be simple, but they're also unique and magical.

Ready to plan your perfect getaway in Missouri? Whether you're looking for adventure, relaxation, or a bit of both, Hermann Hill offers the ideal romantic escape or family getaway.

We've got everything needed for a legendary experience. Book your stay today and prepare to create memories you'll forever cherish — and maybe even a few to rouse jealousy back at the office.

Missouri is waiting — and so is your perfect getaway!
