Self-guided Cycling Tour around the Munich Lakes

For those who do not want to or are unable to take as much time to cycle the whole Munich Lakes Tour, this tour has been created just for you! Starting from the Bavarian capital, you will cycle to Lake Starnberg, the Osterseen lakes, Lake Riegsee, and Lake Staffelsee. Connected by scenic routes you will get from one baroque town to another. Treat yourself to a long weekend and enjoy it in a really Bavarian way!

Highlights:

• Munich: The capital city of Bavaria is ideal for a sightseeing tour. Visit the City Hall and take a stroll in the English Garden! You can end your evening at the legendary Hofbräuhaus.
• Starnberger See: Experience a natural idyll at Lake Starnberg, which stretches for 20.2 kilometers in length and spans 4.7 kilometers in width, with depths reaching up to 127.8 meters. It is the fifth-largest lake in Germany and was formed during the last Ice Age. The crystal-clear water and the backdrop of mountains invite you to dream.
• Murnau: In Murnau on Lake Staffelsee, you can visit the Münter-Haus. It was the home of the artist Gabriele Münter, who lived there with Wassily Kandinsky. Because Kandinsky was of Russian origin, the building was also referred to as the "Russian House"

Tour character: Level 2
