The Bavarian Alps lie along the German - Austrian border between Lake Constance (Bodensee) and Berchtesgaden - a distance of roughly 300 kilometres. Crammed into this thin sliver of land is some of the most spectacular walking that Germany has to offer. It is also home to some of the country's most colourful folk traditions and the world-famous fairy-tale castles built by Bavaria's 'Mad King Ludwig'. Though Germany's small slice of the European Alps offers few peaks that compare in height to those in neighbouring Austria, the scenery is no less rewarding for walkers. Scenic highlights include the breathtakingly beautiful KÃ¶nigssee, a pristine lake in the Berchtesgaden Alps, the romantic Breitach, Partnach and HÃ¶llental gorges, and the rack-railway trip to the summit of the Zugspitze, Germany's highest mountain. Picturesque villages and towns, together with a rich cultural heritage, add to the region's considerable charm. On top of all this, reasonable prices and an excellent tourist infra-structure make the Bavarian Alps the perfect destination for an easy-to-organise and affordable walking holiday.

This guidebook of walks explores Germany's Bavarian Alps. Lying along the German-Austrian border in a thin sliver of land roughly 300km long, this area contains some of the most spectacular walking and beautiful scenery that Germany has to offer. 70 graded walks explore mountain landscapes, wild mountain gorges and alpine meadows as well as the region's picturesque villages, opulent baroque churches and fairy-tale castles like Neuschwanstein. The walks are divided into six mountain areas, grouped around base towns to make planning a walking holiday as easy as possible. Bases include Oberstdorf, Garmisch-Partenkirchen, Mittenwald, Marquartstein, Inzell, Oberammergau and Ramsau among others. Mountain walks are mainly between 3 and 8 hours duration, though some longer walks are included staying at mountain huts. The guidebook gives an outline of two multi-day tours and suggestions for shorter valley walks of less than 3hrs are also included. Relaxing beer gardens, colourful local traditions and excellent tourist infrastructure add to the region's charms, and make the Bavarian Alps the perfect destination for a walking holiday.
