Tour description

Escape the city and spend a magical day at one of Germany’s most stunning natural gems — Lake Eibsee in Garmisch-Patenkirchen, nestled at the foot of the mighty Zugspitze, Germany’s highest mountain. We’ll pick you up at your hotel in Munich at 9 AM in a comfortable, air-conditioned minivan. In 1.5-hour drive as we head straight to the turquoise shores of Lake Eibsee. Afternoon Activities – Choose Your Adventure: You’ll have the freedom to explore the lake your way and have the choice of various activities, that you can combine. Whether you're feeling active or laid-back, there’s something for everyone: - Hiking: Walk the scenic 7.5 km loop trail around the lake. It takes about 2 hours and offers incredible views from every angle. - Stand-Up Paddling: Rent a SUP board (additional cost: 20 € per hour) and glide over crystal-clear waters past tiny islands. It’s easier than you think and a lot of fun! - Boat Rental: Prefer to stay dry? Grab a rowing boat (additional cost: 16 € per hour) or pedal boat (additional cost: 19 € per hour) and cruise the lake at your own pace. - Swimming: Visiting in summer (June–August)? Cool off with a refreshing swim in the pristine alpine waters. Bring a floatie for extra fun! - Relax & Recharge: Prefer to unwind? Enjoy an afternoon snack or treat yourself to a slice of delicious Bavarian cake and a coffee on a lakeside terrace — the perfect way to soak in the views and atmosphere. If you decide for renting a stand-up paddle board or boat, this will be your first activity. Afterwards a short and easy walk brings us to the charming Eibsee Alm, our lunch stop framed by the dramatic peaks of the Alps. Here, you can enjoy a traditional Bavarian lunch (optional, at your own expense) — and for those who like, a cold Bavarian beer in the mountain air. After lunch you can choose further activities. Hiking, swimming or relaxing - you decide! At 4:30 PM, we’ll head back to Munich. You’ll arrive by 6 PM and be dropped off right at your hotel or accommodation — relaxed, refreshed, and filled with mountain memories.
