Tour
Travel to the Bavarian capital early, it's worth it! Numerous sights such as the English Garden, the Marienplatz, which has been the centre of Munich since Henry the Lion founded the city in 1158, the City Hall or the Hofbräuhaus want to be visited. In the afternoon, personal tour information and bike hand-out take place at the hotel.
Look forward to a wonderful cycling day full of lakes! You cycle through Forstenrieder Park to Starnberg, cycle directly along the shores of the deep blue lake, follow secluded paths past the Osterseen and the Riegsee to Murnau am Staffelsee. If you wish, you can book an overnight stay at Lake Starnberg.
Today you cycle through the largest moorland in Central Europe! What a change! Through untouched nature you follow the river Loisach to Garmisch Partenkirchen. You will reach your destination nice and early and it is worth taking the Zugspitzbahn up to an altitude of 2962 m for the magnificent view over the Alps.
After a hearty breakfast, you will first cycle via Klais to the beautiful Barmsee. Afterwards you have the option of cycling directly to Wallgau or taking a detour via Mittenwald and Scharnitz to the source of the Isar. Up to Scharnitz you will cover a total of approx. 300 metres in altitude. Now the adventure begins: you cycle slightly uphill through wild and romantic gorges and lush alpine meadows to the source of the Isar. Through the sunny high valley with magnificent panoramic views of the Karwendel and Wetterstein mountains, you cycle via Mittenwald to Wallgau, a place where Bavarian customs are still alive.
It's like a film today. Passing the Isarwinkel and following the crystal-clear, turquoise-blue water, you cycle to the impressive Sylvensteinsee and via Lenggries to Bad Tölz. In search of "The Bull of Tölz", discover the picturesque old town with its richly decorated town houses, quaint inns and attractive shops.
The Isar cycle path is your companion today. Almost every cyclist's heart leaps a little higher at the sight of the green Isar with its wonderfully white pebble banks and the impressive Alpine panorama. The landscape becomes more and more lovely today, gently rolling hills with characteristic onion-shaped church towers accompany you to the outskirts of Munich.
