Ammersee, also known as Lake Ammer, is a picturesque glacial lake nestled in Upper Bavaria, Germany, southwest of Munich. Situated at an elevation of 533 meters between the charming towns of Herrsching and Dießen am Ammersee, it is a significant natural landmark. Covering approximately 47 square kilometers, Ammersee ranks as Germany's sixth-largest lake and Bavaria's third-largest, forming a vital part of the scenic "Starnberg Ammersee Cultural Landscape." Its origins trace back to melting Ice Age glaciers, and it is fed…

Yes, the full circuit around Ammersee is a popular cycling route, approximately 46 kilometers long. Cyclists should be aware of a specific section at the southern end, between Pähl and Dießen am Ammersee. Due to bird protection concerns, there isn't a direct bike path here, and the state road can be narrow and busy. It is highly recommended to take a slightly longer but much safer detour via Raisting, which adds scarcely 2 kilometers to the route.
Ammersee is easily accessible from Munich by regional train services. The S-Bahn line S8 connects Munich directly to Herrsching am Ammersee on the eastern shore. From Herrsching, you can utilize the Bayerische Seenschifffahrt ferry services to reach other towns and points of interest around the lake, such as Dießen, Utting, and Schondorf, making it convenient to explore without a car.
While many trails around Ammersee are suitable for leisurely walks, the 'Ammersee Höhenweg' (High Trail) offers more varied terrain and elevated views. This trail often involves ascents and descents through wooded moraine hills, providing panoramic vistas of the lake and, on clear days, the Alps. Difficulty levels vary, but some sections can be moderately challenging due to elevation changes.
Ammersee offers numerous family-friendly options. The eastern shore, in particular, has many public swimming spots and playgrounds. The long lakeside promenade in Herrsching is perfect for easy walks with children. During summer, Utting am Ammersee features a popular lido with a ten-meter diving tower and a unique 'nature labyrinth' that kids often enjoy. Many circular walks around the lake are also suitable for families.
Ammersee is generally dog-friendly, with many trails and open spaces suitable for walks with leashed dogs. However, it's important to be mindful of nature reserves, especially the Vogelfreistädte Ammersee-Südufer and Ampermoose, where dogs may be restricted or required to be on a very short leash to protect wildlife. Always check local signage for specific rules regarding dogs in swimming areas or protected zones.
Parking is available in the various towns around Ammersee, such as Herrsching, Dießen, and Utting. However, parking lots can fill up quickly, especially on summer weekends and public holidays. For accessing hiking trails, it's often advisable to arrive early in the morning to secure a spot. Some smaller trailheads might have limited parking, so consider public transport or cycling to your starting point if possible.
Ammersee is recognized for its diverse ecosystems, including extensive reed beds and two major nature reserves. It's home to unique fish species, such as an endemic whitefish (Coregonus bavaricus) and the vulnerable deepwater char (Salvelinus evasus). A new fish species, the Ammersee Kaulbarsch (Gymnocephalus ambriaelacus), was described in 2010 and is found only here. Birdwatchers will also appreciate the protected areas, especially in the southern parts of the lake.
While the eastern shore offers numerous public swimming spots, the lake's large size allows for finding quieter areas. Many smaller bays and less developed sections, particularly along the western shore or away from the main towns, can offer a more secluded wild swimming experience. Always be mindful of private property and nature reserve boundaries when seeking out these spots.
The towns bordering Ammersee, such as Herrsching, Dießen, Utting, and Schondorf, offer a good selection of cafes, traditional Bavarian pubs (Gasthäuser), and restaurants. You'll find options ranging from casual eateries to more upscale dining. Accommodation includes hotels, guesthouses, and holiday apartments, catering to various budgets. Many establishments are conveniently located near the lake and accessible from popular hiking and cycling routes.
Ammersee is beautiful in every season, and winter offers unique hiking opportunities, especially on cleared paths around the lake or through the surrounding forests. Beyond hiking, winter activities include cross-country skiing on prepared trails, curling on frozen surfaces (when conditions allow), and even horse-drawn sleigh rides in the picturesque landscape. The clear, crisp air often provides stunning views of the snow-dusted Alps.
Absolutely. A major highlight is the nearby Andechs Monastery, a significant pilgrimage site founded in the 15th century, famous for its Benedictine brewery and panoramic views. In Dießen am Ammersee, you can explore the Marienmünster, an impressive 18th-century Baroque church. Herrsching features the Kurparkschlösschen (spa park castle), and the entire region has a rich history, having been part of an ancient Celtic amber trading route.
