Walk from Herrsching

Walk from Herrsching, Andechs

 travelfrosch Says:  While you can get here by bus, I find it's a lot more fun to simply walk from Herrsching. There are two paths to get to Andechs: one via the "Horndlweg," and one via the "Kiental." The former is a bit longer (roughly 1 hour and 15 minutes), but has better views in clear...

Kloster Andechs Bräustuberl: Enjoyment for Body and Soul, Andechs

 travelfrosch Says:  "Genuss für Leib und Seele" (Enjoyment for Body and Soul) is the motto of the Andechs Monastery's "Bräustuberl." While not as much of a secret as it was when I first came here 16 years ago (that long??), it is certainly worth the effort to get here. My favorite way to get...
