A beautiful, varied and rewarding MTB tour. Technically moderate, but quite strenuous due to the sometimes steep inclines.

Easier version of the 1st stage from Kochel to Seefeld without crossing the Altlacher Hochkopf between Walchensee and Wallgau.

From Walchensee, the route runs exclusively on flat side roads along the lakeshore and on a tarmac cycle path on the ascent to Wallgau.
