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 3 personable guides: Bavaria in a nutshell!

This private day tour from Munich truly gives you the best of Tegernsee. A mountain river leads us up the slopes from the village of Tegernsee. After a 2 hour ascent, we reach a rocky little summit with a cute chapel where amazing vistas over the mountains of the Mangfallgebirge and the lake await. A short descent brings us to a mountain chalet where we enjoy a well-earned Bavarian lunch. Replenished, we hike back via a panoramic path above the lake that eventually leads us to the shores of lake Tegernsee.

Hiking Distance: 11 km

Gain: 470 m

A certain surefootedness and sturdy shoes with grip are required!
