Bad Bayersoien and around: Hinteres Hörnle, Kolbensattelhütte, Schleierfälle

In the late spring, there is nothing better than go hiking in the nature. Bad Bayersoien is deffinitely a nice place that I recommend as a starting point, especially for trips in the Ammergau Alps, known as one of the most beautiful monutains in Germany.

From Munich, it will take you around one and a half hours by car to reach Bad Bayersoien. You can also take the train BRB to Füssen and from there a bus (33 stops). In the area, you will find many gast hauses, hotels, restaurants and plenty of nice places to chill or take your kids too. There is even a small lake, Bayersoiener See, perfect for short walks.

Hinteres Hörnle

Hinteres Hörnle (1548m) means Rear Hörnle and on the way to it you can visit two more peaks: Mittleres and Vorderes Hörnle (middle and front Hörnle) as well as the Hörnlehütte (Hörnle hut). There are many nice views on the way to Rear Hörnle as well as forests, small rivers and grasslands. You can visit all three peaks in one day as this is a rather easy hike.

Kolbensattelhütte

The Kolbensattelhütte (1270m) is a prefered winter destination because there are some ski tracks, but it is very nice when I paid it a visit, in the late spring as well. You can do a picnic just on the grasslands or have a bier in the hut. You can reach it from Bad Bayersoien in just around an hour and a half and continue hiking in the forest or to the near peeks Am Zahn (1615m), Sonnenberg(1622m), Steckenberg (1385m)

Schleierfälle

The Schleierfälle waterfalls are an incredible destination for the hot days of the early summer, because in order to reach them, one would have a nice journey trough the forests. Be careful, just a 100 meter before reaching them the road becomes very slippery because of the small streams that cross it. And then, when you have enought steering at the waterfall you can have a beer on the riverside. Enjoy it!
