The Alpsee near Schwangau is considered the clearest body of water in the region and was King Ludwig II's favorite lake. The easy circular hike runs below the castles of Neuschwanstein and Hohenschwangau around the Alpsee and offers beautiful views of the lake and the mountain landscape.

Roadbook
The starting point is the Alpsee parking lot on Fürstenstraße. From there, follow the path in the direction of Hohenschwangau Castle and Austria. At the junction to Hohenschwangau Castle, continue straight ahead. Shortly afterwards, you will reach Pindarplatz on the left with a beautiful view over the Alpsee, Neuschwanstein Castle and the Museum of the Bavarian Kings. A little further up, turn left onto a narrow path that leads around the lake away from the tarred road. This takes you to the clearing with the Marienmonument - once Queen Marie's favorite bathing spot. The year of construction, 1897, is marked with Roman numerals (MDCCCLIIIL); the letters I.V.S. refer to the aristocratic founders of Seinsheim. The clearing is ideal for a break with a view. Then follow the path towards Alpseebad. You return to the starting point via rocks and footbridges on the opposite shore.
