Tegernsee

Tegernsee

Lake Tegernsee is one of the most popular destinations in Upper Bavaria and is a true highlight for anyone traveling by convertible. Nestled in the majestic mountain world of the Bavarian Alps, the region around the lake offers a perfect combination of nature, culture, and enjoyment. The sparkling lake, picturesque villages, and idyllic roads make Lake Tegernsee an ideal destination for a relaxing convertible tour in Bavaria.

Driving to the Lake Tegernsee – a scenic experience

The journey to Lake Tegernsee is already an experience in itself. The route from Munich, leading through Holzkirchen and Gmund am Tegernsee, is particularly beautiful. Here, the road winds through gentle hills, past meadows, forests, and charming villages. For those who prefer a curvy and scenic drive, the route through Auerberg and the Leitzachtal is particularly rewarding, offering sweeping views of the foothills of the Alps and glimpses of shimmering lakes. Lake Tegernsee is also part of the German Alpine Road.

Even coming from Bad Tölz or Schliersee, attractive side roads lead through small valleys and over ridges, making the driving experience in the convertible a true pleasure. Once you arrive at the lake, numerous parking options invite you to take a relaxing break.

Lake Tegernsee – a place to linger and enjoy

Along the shores of Lake Tegernsee, you'll find well-kept promenades, traditional places like Rottach-Egern and Tegernsee, as well as numerous cafés and guesthouses with lake views. A boat trip, a walk along the water, or a visit to the Bräustüberl Tegernsee make your stay particularly varied. For culture enthusiasts, a detour to the former Benedictine abbey, which now houses Tegernsee Castle, is worthwhile.

For those who enjoy sports, the area offers plenty of hiking and cycling trails. The ascent to the Wallberg panoramic road is particularly rewarding, with breathtaking views and a spectacular mountain backdrop – perfect for another convertible excursion around the lake.

Lake Tegernsee is much more than just a lake – it is a feeling of freedom, connection to nature, and Bavarian lifestyle. As a stopover or destination on a convertible tour in Bavaria, it offers everything the heart desires: impressive landscapes, cozy dining options, and roads that invite you to drive. Whether for a few hours or an entire day – every drive here turns into a vacation.
