Highlights

Munich
Munich attracts visitors with its world-famous highlights: at Marienplatz, the New Town Hall delights with its glockenspiel, while the Viktualienmarkt invites visitors to sample regional specialities. The magnificent Residenz and Nymphenburg Palace tell of the city's glorious past. Art lovers will find masterpieces in the Pinakotheken and Lenbachhaus museums, while nature lovers can relax in the English Garden, one of the largest city parks in the world. The Olympic Park and BMW Welt add modern accents – perfect contrasts to the historic old town. Sports and architecture fans will get their money's worth at the futuristic Allianz Arena, and a visit to the traditional Hofbräuhaus perfectly rounds off the Bavarian way of life.

Murnau
Murnau rises above the nature reserve Murnauer Moos and the three warmest bathing lakes of Upper Bavaria. The view of the peaks of the Wetterstein, Ester and Ammer mountains is like looking out from a balcony.

Lake Starnberg
Set against the majestic backdrop of the Bavarian Alps, just 20 kilometres south of Munich, lies the holiday paradise of ‘Starnberg's Five Lakes Region’. It is home to nine nature reserves, meaning that over two thirds of Starnberg's Five Lakes Region is under landscape protection. Excellent water quality ensures a ‘clean’ stay.

Garmisch Partenkirchen
Garmisch-Partenkirchen, located at the foot of the Zugspitze, is considered one of the most famous Alpine resorts in Germany. The region inspires with breathtaking mountain panoramas, idyllic hiking and cycling trails, and winter sports opportunities. A highlight is the ride on the Zugspitzbahn railway to Germany's highest peak. Also worth seeing are the colourful murals on the historic houses, the impressive Partnach Gorge with its steep rock faces and rushing waterfalls, and the charming town centre with its traditional inns and boutiques. Here, nature, culture and the Bavarian way of life come together in an ideal way.

Wallgau
Wallgau is a sun-kissed town located at around 900 metres above sea level. Rustic farmhouses and facades decorated with Lüftlmalerei frescoes give the town the flair that characterises Upper Bavaria. A holiday in the mountains as it should be.

Bad Tölz
Bad Tölz is a city with about 18,000 inhabitants: tranquil and yet versatile, with urban infrastructure and yet characterized by the rural idyll. And best of all, if you like, you can easily explore the sights of the town on foot.

Tegernsee - Gmund
Gmund presents itself to its guests as authentic, down-to-earth and tradition-conscious. Would you like to get to know and enjoy authentic Bavarian life? Then you've come to the right place.
Gmund is considered the most family-friendly place in the Tegernsee holiday region. The gently rolling Alpine foothills are ideal for hikers and cyclists.

Tour

Don't hesitate to arrive early; the city of Munich is definitely worth being visited! There are varius places of interest like the "Englischer Garten", the "Hofbräuhaus" or the town-hall. More information can be requested at the hotel where the bikes are handed over.

The cycle path leads you through Forstenrieder Park to Starnberg. You cycle directly along the shore of Lake Starnberg to your hotel in Bernried or Ambach. End the day in a relaxed manner, enjoy the lake atmosphere and treat yourself to a swim in the deep blue water.

A wonderful day of cycling surrounded by lakes! In the morning, you will cycle along the cycle path directly on the shore of the deep blue Lake Starnberg, follow secluded paths past the Osterseen and Riegsee lakes to Murnau am Staffelsee. Stroll through the small town and enjoy the Bavarian atmosphere.

Today you will cycle through the largest moorland area in Central Europe! What a change! Through unspoilt nature, you will follow the Loisach River to Garmisch-Partenkirchen. You will reach your destination nice and early, and it is worth taking a trip on the Zugspitzbahn railway to an altitude of 2,962 metres, as the sweeping view over the Alps is magnificent.

After a hearty breakfast, you will first cycle via Klais to the beautiful Barmsee. Then 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: Slightly uphill the trail leads through wild and romantic canyons and juicy mountain pastures to the source of the Isar. Through the sunny valleys offering a magnificent panorama view over Karwendel- and Wetterstein mountains you will reach Wallgau via Mittenwald. In Wallgau Bavarian traditions are still held up.

It is like in a movie: Past the Isarwinkel along the crystal-clear, turquoise and blue water you will reach the impressing Sylvensteinsee to continue to Bad Tölz via Lenggries. Looking for "Der Bulle von Tölz" you will explore the picturesque old town with richly decorated facades, quaint inns and attractive shops.

Would you prefer a beautiful day on the bike or rather a relaxing day in Bad Tölz? Just as you wish! You can either choose to bike through the glorious Tegernsee landscape to Gmund with its amazing view over the lake or to relax in the 34°C warm thermal water of the famous spa "Alpamare". Here tired muscles will regain their strength.

The Isar bike trail will accompany you today. The green Isar with its white pebble banks and the excellent view over the Alps will make your heart rejoice. The landscape will become more and more charming today: Gentle hills and onion-shaped church towers line your way to the suburbs of Munich.

We are happy to book additional nights for you in order for you to explore Munichs beautiful city centre (about 10 minutes by S-Bahn).
