This region is very picturesque. It is also called the "Werdenfelser Land". Cozy villages are nestled between mountains and forests and visitors are always welcome. You will also find clear creeks, one of the largest marshlands in Southern Germany, the "Murnauer Moos" for enjoying activities in the clean, fresh air. You can go for short strolls, or extensive hikes in the mountains. Mountain bikes are available for renting if you are athletically inclined or adventurous.
You also can visit a "Schwimmbad" or public pool or a more exclusive spa. Why not try in a German sauna if the weather is bad or just for relaxation?
If you go to a sauna , please be prepared for the following: Saunas are taken in the nude. Certain saunas are open to families, which means men, women, children all come together. Other saunas offer days just for men or just for women. Saunas are very sanitary, towels are a must to sit on. You will find a very relaxed atmosphere and nobody expects that you have a perfect body.

We don't want to tell you which town or village you should stay in. It's your choice. Just drive leisurely around and visit them. There is so much to see. Don't miss Oberammergau, Mittenwald, Bad Kohlgrub, Murnau, to mention only a few.
When you walk, please do not produce unnecessary noise as this will scare all the animals away. You can see, deer, rare birds (for the bird watcher), mountain goats, foxes and many others. Please be aware that many plants are protected, so look but don't touch or pick them as you could be fined. Forests are very important to the German people and forest rangers patrol them frequently to ensure their lasting beauty.
