Feu­er und Eis Self-Gui­ded Tour

Isar cycle path — short trip south wit­hout lug­ga­ge transfer

Start­ing at 478 per person

The Isar is one of the most beau­tiful natu­ral jewels in the heart of Euro­pe: from its source in Tyrol to its mouth in Deg­gen­dorf, the crys­tal-clear moun­tain stream grows into a sta­te­ly river over 300 kilo­me­ters — and shows many dif­fe­rent faces along the way. This sec­tion from the source of the Isar to Munich offers the oppor­tu­ni­ty to dis­co­ver this natu­ral land­scape up clo­se in just five days. Towns and cities along the rou­te offer a wide ran­ge of cul­tu­ral attrac­tions. If you get acti­ve, you will also get hun­gry and thirsty: num­e­rous inns, stores and (weekly) mar­kets along the rou­te offer the oppor­tu­ni­ty to quench your thirst. 

Itinerary / Stages

Day 1
Indi­vi­du­al arri­val in Mit­ten­wald — excur­si­on to the source of the Isar
Distanz: 20 km Höhe (+): 313m Höhe (-): 50m
You start after your arri­val in Mit­ten­wald: from the alpi­ne vil­la­ge, you cycle uphill along the young Isar to Schar­nitz and into the Hin­ter­au­tal val­ley to the source of the Isar. Here the river shows its most beau­tiful side. Wild and with an impres­si­ve play of colors, it flows through the val­ley. Over­night stay in Mittenwald. 
Day 2
Mit­ten­wald — Eng
Distanz: 51 km Höhe (+): 445m Höhe (-): 133m
From Mit­ten­wald, the rou­te fol­lows the Isar out of the Alps to Vor­der­riss. Here you lea­ve the Isar and head towards Ris­s­tal in the Eng. The lar­ge Ahorn­bo­den is par­ti­cu­lar­ly worth see­ing. Over­night stay in Hinterriss. 
Day 3
Eng — Bad Tölz 
Distanz: 44 km Höhe (+): 32m Höhe (-): 320m
From the Eng out of the val­ley to Vor­der­riss. From here you fol­low the Isar back down to the high­light of the day — the Syl­ven­stein reser­voir. The reser­voir is nest­led in the moun­tain sce­n­ery and will make your heart beat fas­ter. Here you can rech­ar­ge your bat­te­ries befo­re rol­ling out to Bad Tölz via Leng­gries. Over­night stay in Bad Tölz. 
Day 4
Bad Tölz — Munich
Distanz: 57 km Höhe (+): 206m Höhe (-): 343m
The last stage takes us along the Isar to the Isar metro­po­lis of Munich. Slow­ly you will noti­ce how the river widens. The charm of Munich will inspi­re you and you will imme­dia­te­ly under­stand why life in Munich also takes place along the Isar. Over­night stay in Munich. 
Day 5
Indi­vi­du­al Departure
Distanz: 0 km Höhe (+): 0m Höhe (-): 0m
