Selected alternatives for you

    On the bike route around Walchensee, you get a Canada feeling. The turquoise-green Walchensee with its forested mountains all around is not only one of the deepest but also one of the largest alpine lakes in Germany in terms of area. On its southern shore there are numerous romantic bathing and picnic bays.

    At the "Haus des Gastes" in Wallgau, you pass the tennis courts and turn right onto Barmseestraße, then continue past the village square to the northern town exit. You follow the service road on the left side of the B11 and later the forest road to Einsiedl. Now it goes along the shore to Zwergern and Walchensee. Here you follow the B11 for 4.5 km. In Urfeld, you turn right onto the shore path to Sachenbach and continue to Niedernach. Over the toll road (free for cyclists) you reach the T-junction of the federal road and turn left on the route known from the outbound journey back to Wallgau.
