Our regions

The right choice for everyone 

Discover with us the most beautiful part of Bavaria. Green forest land, granite and gneiss rock characterize the Bavarian Forest and Upper Palatinate Forest, Mediterranean karst landscape can be found in the heart of Bavaria in the Bavarian Jura between Regensburg and Nuremberg. The vast Danube plain, hilly, lush greenland and thermal water are the hallmarks of the Bavarian Golf and Spa Region, the area south of the Danube between Regensburg and Passau. The cities lie scattered like islands. They are economic and cultural centers of the regions. Together this is East Bavaria, a holiday region straight out of a picture book, in which a different nature reveals itself on every page. Each one is beautiful, each very distinctive and each worth a visit.
