Day trip tip in Bavaria #1: Walchensee

In Bavaria, you can always escape the city and visit the Alps and beautiful lakes, only one – two hours away from Munich. With a notable amount of lakes, around 100, there are plenty of trips one can take and still arrive for a beer ot two in Augustiner Bräu in the evening.

One such trip tip destination that I can give you is Walchensee: with no doubts one of the most beautiful lakes in Bavaria. It is located in the south from Munich, 15 minutes by car from Kochel. There is a limited possibility to park sideways of the road and there is a parking lot near by.

Walchensee has crystal clear blue waters and rocky small beaches. I visited in in April and it offered some really nice views, warm weather and not very cold water. Definitely worth a visit!
