Andechs Monastery

Your guide will meet you in the lobby of your hotel before you embark together on a train that passes though the beautiful Bavarian countryside. On your way to the famous lake Ammersee you will learn about the history of the monastery and the House of Andechs. Once there you have a choice of either enjoying a forty minute hike on an old pilgrims route to the top of the Holy Mountain itself where you can see the wonderful baroque church of the monastery, admire the views from the balcony and enjoy a refreshing beer and tuck into the locally sourced specialties. Alternatively, you can do all of the above but if you want to make it a lazier day we can just take the bus to the top of the hill!

Duration 120 minutes
