A sporty cycling tour in the Bavarian foothills of the Alps for art lovers. Well-developed cycle paths take you through the towns of Murnau, Ohlstadt, Großweil and Kochel.
Art lovers will get their money's worth on this tour. Whether it's the Munrau Castle Museum, the Münter House or the Franz Marc Museum in Kochel am See. One cultural highlight follows the next over 60 kilometers. And if you still haven't had enough, you can take a detour to the Glentleiten open-air museum on the way back. The route runs partly on asphalt, partly on gravel, from town to town and therefore with plenty of places to stop for refreshments along the way.
