Pfaffenwinkel hiking guide

<p>The name alone gives it away: Pfaffenwinkel is home to an impressive number of monasteries and churches. They are nestled in the lovely foothills of the Bavarian Alps, which look as if they have been painted here with their rolling hills, blue lakes and magnificent panoramic views of the Alps. Enjoyable excursions and hikes can be undertaken here! The Rother hiking guide "Pfaffenwinkel" presents 51 routes around Weilheim, Murnau and Schongau.</p><p>The selection in this hiking guide ranges from comfy walks along the lakeshore to panoramic hikes over ridges. Most of the routes are easy and families with children will also find suitable activities here - especially if there is a stream to play in or a summer toboggan run.</p><p>The authors Kathrin Schön and Reinhold Lehmann have put together a varied range of routes for this hiking guide, which is now in its 3rd, updated edition. Furthermore, there is the pleasure tour from Staffelsee to Murnauer Moos as well as a visit to the famous Wieskirche or - the most difficult tour in the book - the ascent of the Ettaler Manndl.</p><p>All the suggested routes are presented with brief information with all the important details, precise route descriptions, map sections with marked routes and informative altitude profiles. GPS data is available for download. Many suggestions for non-hiking days, such as museums, sights or adventure pools, round off the offer.</p
