The Chiemgau the jewel of the Bavarian Alps
11 Day Walking Holiday
‘One Night Stops’ 7 Day
From challenging climbs to relaxing strolls, the Chiemgau Alps offer the best of Bavaria’s legendary walking country. Just imagine it: traditional farmhouses dotted throughout the picturesque landscape as the melodic chime of cowbells and soothing gurgle of mountain streams fills the air.
This is a walker’s paradise, simply begging to be explored. And, after a thrilling day of following secret paths around wooded slopes, leafy glades, craggy peaks and alpine pastures, choose to reward yourself at a rustic gasthof or a Michelin-starred gourmet restaurant.
Highlights will include:
- The Chiemgau Alps, the secret jewel of the Bavarian Alps - alpine meadows, wooded slopes and rugged peaks
- Schloss Hohenaschau - an ancient hilltop fortress renovated in Baroque style
- Reit im Winkl - a village steeped in Bavarian tradition
- Ruhpolding - a chic resort brightened by colourful window boxes
- Inzell - a sleepy village with pretty murals, surrounded by wonderful walking country
