Loisach Bridge, Eschenlohe

Highlight • Bridge

Elegant mix of traditional and modern: from the water, the new bridge appears like an old, covered wooden bridge. But actually only the two pedestrian paths at the edge of the bridge are covered. In between there is a narrow lane for cars.

Apart from that, you have a wonderful view over the rushing Loisach and especially of the mountains.

View of the Zugspitze from the Murnauer Moos

Highlight (Segment) • Viewpoint

Pure nature: In front of you is a picturesque, natural moor that is surrounded on all sides by mountains. Of course, the Zugspitze with its gray, gigantic cliffs rises particularly strikingly in the south.

Asamklamm Gorge

Highlight • Gorge

The Eschenlainetal belongs to the Estergebirge, often called Krottenkopfgebirge, and is part of the northern Limestone Alps. In Eschenlohe the Eschenlahe crashes through a deep gorge of dolomite rock. A narrow jetty leads over the abyss, where the following is written: "This gorge was built after the councilor dr. Wilhelm Asam (1862-1944) named "Asamklamm". Before that she was called "Black Brüll Klamm". Dr. Asam was a general practitioner in Murnau and also looked after his patients in Eschenlohe. The market Murnau awarded him in 1911 the honorary citizenship. The jetty over the Eschenlaine was built in 1936 by pioneers. "

Through the deep ravine of the Asamklamm the Eschenlaine has made its way. Passing by rugged, steep rock walls, the gentle little river winds its way, which at times can suddenly turn into a wild torrent that thunders through the riverbed. In the spring, when the snow melts or when it rains for a long time, a muffled roar echoes through the gorge, the ashlaine becomes a torrential river. Again and again, it has contributed to dramatic disasters. The worst was the Eschenloher floods of 1999 and 2005.

For us, the gorge was more than fascinating ... but in a different way - because the Eschenlaine did not carry any water at all - so we could partly walk directly through the riverbed and get fantastic insights and insights!
