Your walking holidays in Bavaria

One of the undisputed rewards of your hikes in the Bavarian Jura are the ever-recurring, breathtaking views. This region enchants visitors with imposing rocky cliffs, green meadows, idyllic lakes, bubbling rivers, and lush forests. Whether you explore the area on your own or opt for guided hikes, here you can experience unspoilt nature in all its splendour. Discover hidden places that are only reserved for hikers and experience moments of tranquillity and connection. Or climb the highest point in the Upper Palatinate Jura – 652m Mt Poppberg – and let your gaze wander over the vastness of the countryside. For further tips, please ask at our reception, because we know everything about walking holidays in Germany.
