Discover the region

Geographically, Johanniskirchen is located between the Bavarian Forest and the Alps and is surrounded by an idyllic landscape. The area is known for its numerous springs, rivers and lakes as well as the many hiking opportunities through picturesque villages.

The town offers many tourist attractions such as Tannbach Castle or the parish church of St. John the Baptist with its impressive 15th century tower. Cultural highlights also include the annual folk festival in August and the Christkindlmarkt at Christmas time.

Culinary Johanniskirchen also has a lot to offer: Here you can enjoy typical Bavarian dishes, such as pork knuckle or pretzels with Obatzda - best accompanied by a cool beer from the region.

For outdoor fans there is a lot to experience here: In summer, the various bathing lakes invite you to go swimming or boating. Cycling and hiking are also popular activities at this time of year. In winter, on the other hand, you can go skiing or snowboarding on the nearby ski slopes.

If it ever rains, a visit to the "Bauernhaus" museum or a relaxing wellness treatment in one of the local spas is worthwhile.

Whether in spring with nature in bloom, in summer sunbathing by the lake, in autumn hiking through the colourful forests or in winter skiing - Johanniskirchen is worth a trip in every season. It is especially beautiful in the town due to the picturesque landscape and the historical charm.

We hope that this travel guide was able to give you helpful tips for your stay in Johanniskirchen and that you will soon explore this region in person!

    Wir waren zu viert unterwegs und sehr begeistert von der Strecke. Obwohl es kurz nach dem Start doch noch sehr sonnig und warm wurde, hatten wir keine Probleme, da ein beträchtlicher Teil der Wanderung durch den Wald führt und wir somit eine natürliche Klimaanlage hatten. Die Tour hält einige schöne Aussichtspunkte bzw. Weitsichten bereit und eignet sich hervorragend, wenn man etwas anderes sehen möchte aber den Landkreis nicht verlassen will oder man eine kurze Auszeit vom Alltag braucht. Der Weg hat nur einen kurzen Anstieg in Peterskirchen zur Staatstraße, ansonsten ist es eine ausreichend lange und abwechslungsreiche Tour, sehr zu empfehlen! Wir waren gemütlich und mit Pause gute 3 Stunden unterwegs.
