Munich Bavarian Alps Private Day Trip

Explore the beautiful Herzogstand: the favourite mountain of Bavaria's fairytale King Ludwig II. A visit to Munich just wouldn't be complete without a trip to the Bavarian Alps. This private, fully-customizable day trip from Munich is the perfect mountain excursion for families and beginners. Meet up with your guide at Munich's Hauptbahnhof before departing on a 70-minute train ride, rich with Alpine scenery: magical turquoise lakes, majestic mountain peaks, and the lush Bavarian countryside. Marvel at the shores of the Kochelsee and Walchansee before ascending up the Herzogstand mountain. Travellers have the option to hike up the mountain following the easy Bridal Path laid out by King Ludwig II in 1866, or to ride up on the cable car, taking in the picturesque sights in comfort. Enjoy a hearty and traditional Bavarian lunch on top of the mountain before exploring the trails of the Herzogstand with your guide. Descend the mountain on foot or via cable car before returning to Munich.
