Herbstwanderungen mit Kindern rund um München

The Wendelstein-Männlein-Weg is a classic among family-friendly hikes. We were actually hiking there for the third time. The little man way is just always going.



At around 4.5 kilometers, it is quite entertaining and the slightly more than 200 vertical meters should also be manageable for beginners. However… read more

We are enjoying autumn to the fullest. We (of course) didn't mind that October last weekend wasn't that golden. Nothing better than bleak autumn weather anyway, also for hiking.



Andechs Monastery, high above Lake Ammersee, has long ceased to be a place that only believers visit. It is a popular hiking… read more

MUT = mother and daughter. That's exactly what we did today. I grabbed my hiking backpack and my 4 year old and we enjoyed the autumn hiking together.



Maybe it doesn't sound too brave, but it was for me. Such a 4-year-old child is unpredictable and I usually don't have much to do with route planning and… read more

It's a sunny and warm day in late October. Half of Munich (or all of Munich?) Is on the way to the mountains. And we? I decided to look at the mountains from a distance today. And where better to do that than on the observation tower on the Ratzinger Höhe?



After a short and crisp ascent from the parking… read more

The Murnauer Moos is located on the northern edge of the Bavarian Alps and south of Murnau and the Staffelsee. With 32 km² it represents the largest contiguous natural moor area in Central Europe.



And: It is the perfect hike to really soak up the sun again, because most of the time the hike takes place… read more

The Feichteck is a mountain in the Chiemgau Alps with a height of 1514 m.



Our daughter was 4.5 years old on the hike and mastered the ascent with flying colors. However, not without a lot of scolding in between, because the ascent is actually very steep for short children's legs. Fortunately, there were… read more

The hike to the Kranzhorn is easily manageable for children.



Instead of walking on the forest path, we walk uphill to the left at the Hintermaieralm. First through the forest and then across the meadow to Bubenau. From here a hiking trail leads through the forest and along the mountain to the Kranzhorn… read more

The Walchensee developed into THE destination for Munich residents in the Corona summer 2020. Sure, it is also one of the most beautiful lakes in Bavaria and the blue of the water in summer looks like the Caribbean. However, the water temperature differs considerably.



In autumn it becomes noticeably quieter… read more

The Breitenstein is a well-known peak in the Mangfall Mountains. If it is too crowded here, you can also climb the Bocksteingipfel on this tour. Or, depending on the children's hiking mood, climb both peaks.



The tour is relatively easy and offers three places to stop for a break. Perfect for a hike with… read more

The Hörnle is a fantastic panoramic mountain in the Ammergau Alps. The Hörnlebahn takes us to the Hörnlehütte so that there is enough strength for the four simple peaks that can be climbed.



The Hörnlebahn is a chair lift with swivel double seats. The feet dangle freely in the air while driving and a simple… read more

The hike to the Teufelstättkopf is an adventurous hike for older children who are fit, experienced and sure-footed. Alternatively, the hike can also be done with a child in the Kraxe. Be careful on the summit: small children must be supervised here because there is a risk of falling.



Most of the hike… read more

The Eibsee. I am not sure whether you can still recommend going around the Eibsee with a clear conscience. The turquoise shimmering lake and the view of the surrounding mountains are terrific. The circumnavigation is also very easy and can also be driven with a stroller.



However, the panorama and this… read more

Great tour for kids!



Caution: We initially hiked from the Heldenkreuz towards the Osterfeuerkopf. But then it's the other way around. This path is not suitable for children!



The hike to the Heldenkreuz is relatively easy. Most of the time, the forest zigzags uphill over steps and roots. There is enough… read more

👀 How might it have felt to be a smuggler? Always on the alert for patrolling customs officers and exposed to the forces of nature? We were on the Klobenstein smugglers' trail. The hiking trail connects the Bavarian town of Ettenhausen near Schleching with the Tyrolean town of Kössen.



👉 We tried out… read more

📌 Tour tip: Alp tour of the Samerberger Landwirtschaftsweg & cable car ride to the Hochries 📌



🐮 On the trail of alpine farming, a cow will show you the way of the Almrunde. A varied and instructive hike on forest roads, exciting climbs and across meadows. Wooded sections alternate with promising paths… read more

A visit to a moor nature trail is actually always possible - especially when it is as warm at the end of October as it is on some summer days and a recent influenza prevents us from trudging up the mountain.



1st tip: You can take the Chiemgau local train, for example, from Halfing to Amerang and walk… read more
