Rother

Münchner Wanderberge

<p>Munich's local mountains, an extremely popular and much-visited excursion and vacation region, combine a wide variety of landscapes in a small area - from the gentle meadow tops, lengthy forests, lovely alpine pastures and panoramic summit heights in the Bavarian Prealps, the Ammergau Alps and Chiemgau to the rugged and sometimes quite challenging rocky peaks of the Wetterstein and Karwendel mountains.</p> <p>In this Rother hiking book, Siegfried Garnweidner describes 50 beautiful and varied hikes in the Bavarian Alps between Lech, Inn and Chiemsee. The focus of the tours on offer is on the easier mountain hikes, but friends of the somewhat "tougher kind" will also get their money's worth. All of Munich's local mountains are represented, as well as some insider tips. The range extends from the family-friendly half-day hike to the almost 1350 m high Zwiesel in the Bavarian Prealps to the challenging mountain route through the Höllental valley to Germany's highest peak, the 2963 m high Zugspitze.</p> <p>A tour profile, color maps on a scale of 1:50,000 with the route marked, informative elevation profiles, detailed directions and color photos for each route make it easier for hikers to plan and carry out their excursions. Numerous tips and information, including on geology, flora and fauna, round off this hiking guide. A user-friendly extra is the tour table on the front cover flap, which gives the reader an overview of the family-friendliness, refreshment and accommodation options, frequency of use, suitability for winter as well as the length and difficulty of the individual routes. Together with the overview map on the back cover flap, it enables a quick and targeted selection of suitable routes. With the seventh, completely revised edition, updated GPS data is also available to download for each route.</p> <p
