This relatively short, but still very varied motorcycle tour takes you along magnificent lakes in southern Germany and Austria right into the heart of the Alps.
From Munich we ride across the Chiemgau region, past lush green meadows dotted with happy cows and through villages full of maypoles and onion-shaped church steeples. We visit King Ludwig’s impressive, though unfinished Herrenchiemsee Castle and the beautiful historic old town of Salzburg. After a night in the city of Mozart, we continue to the lakes of the Salzkammergut region, picturesquely embedded amongst the mountains. Here we visit the unique village of Hallstatt, so famous that a replica of it was built in China! We cruise along the deep blue lakes, circle the rock-andice giant named Dachstein and finally reach the foot of the Großglockner, Austria’s tallest mountain. Here we will spend a rest day where you can explore Austria‘s highest mountain, experience the unique High Alpine Road, and catch a glimpse of the country’s largest – although rapidly shrinking - glacier. Even a short detour to Italy is possible, more precisely to South Tyrol. A souvenir photo at the top of the Edelweiss peak is an absolute must for every motorcyclist in the Alps! This is an enjoyment-filled tour, well suited for passengers and relaxed riders who don‘t want to struggle with (too) demanding high alpine passes but still wish to experience the beautiful world of the Alps.
