Geographical location and special features: Chamerau is located in the beautiful Bavarian Forest and is surrounded by picturesque nature. The village is located on the banks of the Regen River, which flows through the national park. The surrounding area offers numerous opportunities for hiking, cycling or skiing.

Tourist attractions: Chamerau's most famous sight is the castle ruin Weißenstein from the 12th century. Here you can not only experience history, but also enjoy a breathtaking view of the valley. Another highlight is the Weinfurtner glass village, where you can admire and buy handmade glass art.

Cultural highlights and events: Various cultural events take place in Chamerau every year, such as the Weissenstein Castle Festival with a medieval market, as well as classical music concerts in the church of St. Laurentius.

Culinary specialities: Bavarian cuisine has its firm place here: be sure to try the delicious regional specialities such as pork knuckle or liver dumplings with sauerkraut as well as a fresh beer from a local brewery.

Outdoor activities: In summer, hiking trails invite you to take walks through forests and mountains - the Goldsteig trail and the Donau-Regen cycle path are particularly recommended. In winter, you can ski in the nearby ski areas such as the Arber or St. Englmar.

If it rains: There is plenty to do in Chamerau even in bad weather: Visit the Lusen National Park Centre, where you can learn more about the wildlife of the Bavarian Forest. Or relax in the thermal baths at Eging am See - a perfect way to switch off from the rain.

Where is it most beautiful? A walk along the Regen River with its numerous small waterfalls and picturesque bridges is particularly idyllic.

Chamerau is definitely worth a trip! We hope that this Travel Guide will help you make your trip to Chamerau unforgettable.

    Eine sehr schöne Wanderung durch Moosbelegte Wälder die im unteren Holz etwas Orientierungssinn erfordert. Dieser Abschnitt ist ohne Wegweiser zu erwandern und von Vorteil ist es, wenn man die Tour vorher offline zur Orientierung gespeichert hat. Sehr empfehlenswerte Rundwanderung zu Haidstein.

    Tolle und abwechslungsreiche Tour über Felder, Wiesen und durch Wälder sowie eine tolle Fernsicht vom Gipfel. Leider war die Berghütte geschlossen. Der Einstufung "leicht" kann ich vollkommen zustimmen.

    Bin zwar nur die erste Häflte bis zur Kirche St. Ulrich auf dem Haidstein gegangen (und dann nach Runding abgebogen), aber dieser Teil hat mit ob seiner naturbelassenen Wege und der Ausblicke supergut gefallen!

    Es ist eine sehr schöne Rundwanderung mit vielen interesanten Eindrücken. Bei der Beschilderung steht meistens Ri6. Einzigster Wertmutstropfen ist, dass man ca. 3 km auf einer befahrenden Landstraße läuft.
