An aquatic paradise in Germany's South

What Bavaria lacks in shoreline, it makes up for in rivers and lakes. Relaxing or messing about on or in the water, simply enjoying the countryside or sports activities – the white and blue skies reflecting in Bavaria’s rivers and lakes leave no holiday dream unfulfilled. Experience the landscape on and around Bavaria’s rivers and lakes like Lake Starnberg, Lake Tegernsee or Lake Chiemsee.

When summer temperatures climb to 30 degrees the numerous beautiful beaches are a great way to cool down whilst you lie back and enjoy the breathtaking scenery and plan your next walk or cycle ride.

Bavaria offers activities aplenty for water sports fans. On the biggest lakes and rivers, e.g. Lake Chiemsee or Lake Starnberg, there are superb opportunities for canoeing and rafting, bathing and water therapies, as well as sailing and kite surfing. The numerous large and small lakes in the Allgäu on the other hand create a unique panorama against the backdrop of the Alps.

Don’t miss the the emerald-green waters of the myriad lakes and rivers in Bavaria!
