Hachelbach Waterfalls

Highlight • Waterfall

After the Josefstaler waterfalls you can take a nice long break here at the Hachelbach. The children can play by the stream and the parents can relax.

Josefsthal Waterfalls

Highlight • Waterfall

The waterfalls are really worth seeing. The circular route is highly recommended. Exciting, how the water seeks its way. We were traveling with the dog. He was also excited! ;)

Many smaller bathing spots line the southern shore of the Schliersee. The view between the boathouses over the lake always offers beautiful photo opportunities.

Lakeside Rest Area at Schliersee

Highlight • Rest Area

On the west bank of the Schliersee there is this great section of the trail with the adventure path. Bicycles are not allowed here, but there are rest areas, a barefoot path and much more.

Experience has shown that parking at the train station is optimal, and the walk to Schliersee isn't that long either.
