Tips for connoisseur tours & sporting adventures by bike around Munich

The Wasser-Radlwege Oberbayern (Upper Bavarian waterside cycling routes) offer around 1,200 km of outstanding spots to stop and enjoy the water. The three legs also adopt the particular regional features: In the north, the long-distance cycling route is dominated by hops & beer, in the south-east the focus is on salt, and in the south-west on art & culture.

Munich is also the starting point for a fantastic Alpine crossing Munich-Venice. Covering 560 km and with a climb of just 3,000 metres, the tour tempts with spectacular landscape adventures through Alpine and Mediterranean environments to the Laguna city of Venice.

The Isar cycle path is all about the water. From the source of the raging torrent of the 'Isaria' in the Karwendel mountains, follow Bavaria's main river for almost 300 km to its confluence with the Danube.

Take the train in Munich and rent a rental bike or rental e-bike at the destination station. This sustainable way to explore the Bavarian Alps is offered by Alpinrad Bikesharing. You can find all the information and stations here.
