Overview

Hike like a local! Explore the beautiful Herzogstand: the favorite mountain of Bavaria's fairytale King Ludwig II. A visit to Munich just wouldn't be complete without a trip to the Alps. Unlike the overly-crowed tours of Zugspitze and Eagle's Nest, this experience is designed for those who want to have a truly authentic Alpine experience. This private, customizable day trip from Munich is also perfect for families and beginners. Meet your guide at Munich's Hauptbahnhof and embark on a short train ride, rich in scenery: magical turquoise lakes, majestic peaks, and the lush Bavarian countryside. Marvel at the shores of Kochelsee and Walchansee before ascending up the Herzogstand. Travellers may hike up following the Bridal Path laid out by King Ludwig II in 1866, or ride up on the cable car, taking in the landscapes in comfort. Enjoy a hearty and traditional lunch on top of the mountain before exploring the trails. Descend the mountain on foot or via cable car before returning to Munich.
