Ulm's old-town walk can provide a compact beginning, but the trip-length articles help decide where to stop rather than simply how far to walk. A first day centred on the Minster area and Fischerviertel will feel different once you add a substantial collection or a longer pause by the water. Make that choice before filling an afternoon with more small stops.
The family, rainy-day and free-activity options are useful alternatives when the original balance no longer fits. More days can mean a gentler pace or a different interest, not necessarily another full sightseeing circuit. The viewpoint and photography articles then help you choose one location or moment worth reserving time for.
Transport and excursion material should come into the decision when extending the route beyond central Ulm. Keep evening and sunset plans flexible around the day's main visit, and compare a day away with the simpler option of exploring the city without another departure to organise.
