Dropped off the family at the Seewirt today and took another tour around the lake and this time the nature trail in the magic forest. Very beautiful! The path is easy, but only for good walkers. Since you can go directly to the water in some quieter places, it is also ideal and exciting for kids.

Easy tour around the Hintersee and through the magic forest with a nature trail. It can be completed without any major difficulties. The path along the nature trail is not wheelchair accessible.

Leaving at Hintersee.

Today we took it easy.

We visited the Hintersee. If you want to arrive by car, you should go to the parking lot by 10 a.m. at the latest. After that it will be difficult to get a place.

We went through the magical forest on the Ramsauer Ache, where we enjoyed the wonderful views. We then continued on to the beautiful circular path around the Hintersee with breathtaking views of the mountains. All in all, a great and eventful trip. The two of us👣👣

Sentence with X, mass tourism and chic promenade..... not for us 🤭

We stopped the hike and ran away! Totally overcrowded during the Easter holidays 🤔

Then it's better to return comfortably to our farm, fresh milk and coffee & cake 🎂 ☕️

P.S. By the way, we didn't meet Hansi Hinterseer at Hintersee 😅

Southwest of Ramsau is the magic forest at the Hintersee. Both are located near the Berchtesgaden National Park.

The term magic forest was coined here around 1930 by the landscape painters and describes the magic that emanates from the surrounding rocks in the forest and at the Hintersee. The rocks come from a huge rock fall about 3500 years ago …

What can you say? 😅 Magical forest, lake and river with crystal clear water. In terms of kilometers, it's not a long tour, but more of a leisurely tour on which you can waste a lot of time even if you don't do many kilometers.

That really was a nice counterbalance after yesterday's rainy day, definitely a beautiful mountain lake to enjoy and relax by. The magical forest was also really mystical and extremely worth seeing... it has even been awarded as one of the most beautiful geotopes in Bavaria. So definitely an absolute recommendation for nature lovers 👌 Tomorrow we'll be going on another …
