Regional routes in the wider Bad Tölz-Wolfratshausen destination

In the wider Bad Tölz-Wolfratshausen destination, the Tölzer Land health climate park has 37 routes across a network of more than 340 kilometres. It stretches between Bad Heilbrunn, Bad Tölz, Kochel am See, Wackersberg and Lenggries. The hiking options in the Tölzer Land also include six signposted Nordic walking routes, ranging from 2 to 8.6 kilometres in length. This offers an extensive network of routes and a selection of marked trails within a specified distance range for different plans. As the number of routes may change, check the details again before making specific plans.

For a shorter, clearly defined route, the wider destination offers the Benediktusweg: It is 2.31 kilometres long, rated easy, and runs from the information stele at the monastery car park to stele 12 in front of the Basilica of St. Benedict. In Wolfratshausen, the Loisachweg runs for 3.34 kilometres along the Loisach, passing traces of the rafting trade, the Kastenmühl weir and the raft landing; the stated walking time is 49 minutes. This makes it possible to compare a short themed route with a walk that has a specific time estimate. Check the route conditions locally.

Another option is the MeinBankerl-Weg, which starts in Wolfratshausen's old town and leads to well-known filming locations from the series “Hubert und/ohne Staller.” The route is about six kilometres long; there is also a shortened option of about four kilometres. Unlike the stated walking time for the Loisachweg, here two approximate distances are provided as a guide. If you would like to use the app for the route, check its availability before your trip.

Culture and local traditions in the wider Bad Tölz-Wolfratshausen destination

In Wolfratshausen, a walking tour of the historic town centre traces the city's thousand-year history and that of its residents. Stops include St. Andrew's Church, built in 1484, the Humpelbräu and the craftsmen's houses. The Wolfratshausen Museum offers another perspective on the town: residents have donated small and large objects that provide a cross-section of domestic culture, arts and crafts, trades, commerce and contemporary history. You can thus explore historic buildings and a collection representing different aspects of everyday and working life as two distinct ways of discovering the town's history.

In Wolfratshausen's Waldram district, the BADEHAUS memorial site focuses on regional contemporary history. An audio guide takes visitors through the permanent exhibition or on a historical tour of the area. In Bad Tölz, the annual Leonhardifahrt is one of the region's events; it is considered the largest Leonhardifahrt in Upper Bavaria and one of Germany's most beautiful horse pilgrimages, attracting tens of thousands of spectators. The procession follows a set order through Marktstraße to Kalvarienberg and the Leonhardskapelle. A service with a blessing of the participants takes place there; the procession then circles the Leonhardikapelle, built in 1718, twice before returning to Marktstraße. If you are planning to attend, check the event dates and programme, as arrangements may change.
