About this activity

Come join us on a private walking or hiking day trip in the Bavarian Alps! Munich Wanderland's day trips start from Munich, offer great views of the Bavarian Alps and take you to cosy places with authentic Bavarian food. Explore the region south of Munich off the beaten track and learn about the local culture and lifestyle from one of our three personable guides: Bavaria in a nutshell!

This tour takes us on an endearing hike on a rugged little path across bridges, past waterfalls and rockpools to a lovely mountain farm, before you'll enjoy an authentic Bavarian lunch against the backdrop of the mountains.

If you're up for it, a hydrotherapy facility awaits on our hike back. Treading ice-cold mountain water in this little knee-deep pool will leave you feeling amazing. Refreshed, we take a short tour through the lovely village of Bayrischzell with its ancient farmhouses and churches.
