Highlight • Viewpoint

From here you have a great view of Andechs. The short descent isn't bad either.

Andechs Monastery

Highlight • Religious Site

For one euro you can climb the tower of the church. Quite exciting, as over very narrow and steep stairs. But the view is great.

Highlight • River

Below the Andechs monastery, the Kienbach stream winds through the forest. Beautiful and very close to nature.

Kiental Gorge

Highlight • Gorge

The main hiking trail from Herrsching to Andechs Monastery is easy to master. You always run along the Kienbach (fairly constant slope). On the way through the gorge you can see impressive rocks, great roots and very old trees ...
The shady deciduous trees make hiking or cycling easier ...
If you are traveling early enough, you can enjoy the beauty of this gorge almost alone ... during the day there are more and more hiking columns ;-)

The path is always nice and cool, not too steep and nice and wide, even in strong sun 🌞.
