Bavarian Prealps Unmissables

The Bavarian Prealps encompass a diverse landscape of deep alpine lakes like Walchensee and Tegernsee, alongside historical landmarks such as the 8th-century Benediktbeuern Abbey. This region features the Wendelstein Rack Railway, one of Germany's oldest mountain railways, and the Slyrs distillery, which produces Bavarian single malt whisky. Visitors can explore the 13th-century ruins of Werdenfels Castle or experience traditional rural life at the Markus Wasmeier Open-Air Museum near Schliersee.
