On this cycling holiday you will get to enjoy the countryside every day. You will discover Bavarian traditions, beliefs and culinary culture – the latter at first-hand every dinner.
On our way from Landsberg to Bad Tolz we pass places that are well known beyond the borders: Oberammergau with its tradition of passion plays since 1634, and Linderhof Palace, where King Ludwig II lived secluded for many years before his life ended as abruptly as mysteriously.
