Demanding, certified premium hiking trail in the Chiemgau Alps, Bavaria. The Chiemsee Alpenland Tour starts at the mountain station of the Hochriesbahn and is also aimed at occasional hikers who are inexperienced in the Alps. However, stamina and surefootedness are important prerequisites. You pass steep passages and longer ascents and descents. A minimum of a head for heights is required and equipment appropriate to the situation is required. The hike can be planned individually, as the four-part round tour includes several stages: From the villages of Aschau im Chiemgau, Frasdorf, Neubeuen and Nussdorf am Inn. There are several resting places on the tour, sometimes next to beautiful chapels, sometimes on wide meadows or in rustic huts with regional cuisine. Highlights of the hike: - Chiemsee, Königssee, Hallstättersee - Neubeurer Wolfsschlucht - Herrenchiemsee Castle - Hohenaschau Castle
