Geographically, the two villages are located about 20 kilometres north of Salzburg. They are surrounded by picturesque countryside with green meadows and rolling hills. The region is also a popular destination for pilgrimages due to its many churches and pilgrimage sites.

One of the main attractions in Neuötting is the "Maria Patrona Bavariae" shrine. Here visitors can see an impressive chapel as well as admire the beautiful inner courtyard. The newly renovated basilica "St. Nikolaus" is also worth a visit.

In Altötting there are also many religious sights to discover such as the Chapel of Grace or the Stations of the Cross on Calvary. But art lovers don't miss out here either: the museum "Glocken- und Figurenmuseum Altötting" presents a collection of historical bells as well as numerous sculptures from different eras.

Culture enthusiasts should also make a note of the annual Tilly Festival in July, which is celebrated on the occasion of the town's founder Johann T'Serclaes von Tilly. Musical performances, historical costumes and traditional food make this event an unforgettable experience.

For culinary fans, both cities offer regional specialities such as veal sausage, liver dumplings or pork knuckles. The famous cheese "Obatzda" is also a must on any menu.

For those who enjoy sporting activities, there is hiking and cycling here. It is especially beautiful in spring, when nature awakens and everything shines in lush green. In winter, the nearby skiing area at Hochfelln is ideal for skiing and snowboarding fans.

Even in bad weather, there are plenty of activities: The "Vitalwelt Schliersee" adventure pool or the "Bavaria Filmstadt" leisure centre are just a few examples.

In summary, Neuötting and Altötting are definitely worth a visit! Here you will find historical sights, cultural highlights as well as culinary delights in a picturesque setting. Whether outdoor activities or indoor fun - everyone gets their money's worth here. A travel guide for this region should therefore not be missing in any travel guide!

    Strecke ist sehr gut beschildert. Tour ist lang. Inn Fähre erfordert Kraft, weil Treppen überwunden werden müssen. Viele Einkehr Möglichkeiten. Besser ist es an zwei Tagen zu fahren. Mehrere Ausblicke aus Zeitgründen übersprungen.

    Diese Tour ist sehr abwechslungsreich und schön zu fahren. Die Auffahrt von Burg bei Winhöring würde ich nicht empfehlen, ich bin trotz Trockenheit im tiefen Morast versunken. Ich empfehle die Schotterstraße von Burg direkt nach Holzen hinauf. Leider ist der Biergarten Holzen seit August 2017 geschlossen. Der Biergarten Pauliwirt in Neuhäusl ist empfehlenswert.
