Discover the ideal holiday rental for your stay in the Bavarian Forrest

I thought the trip was good overall, but a little too expensive. My favourite places were Zwiesel, the national park and the treetop walk. We mostly ate at the accommodation. If you are there by car it is easy to get around. Going to a bigger town and taking lots of things with you

Treetop walk. Glass pond. National park, lots of animals.

A good tip is the national park next to Zwiesel, and the treetop walk is also good

Lots of nature and animals

We spent a month in the Bavarian Forest as a group of around 30 students. As participants in the "excellent winter" programme, we lived together in huts. In total, we were accommodated in one hut in Viechtach, Frauenau and Deggendorf. We had a first-class time. As a team-building exercise, we got to know each other at a sports facility in Regen and then went on a hike on the slopes of the Großer Aber. It was a slippery affair. At the Chamer Hütte, we fortified ourselves and spent the night before tobogganing down the slope again the next day. While we were there, some of us visited the "glass village", regularly went to the sauna or explored the natural surroundings. I was glad to have explored this region by car. I can't say how it works with public transport. In any case, as a native of North Friesland, I practised and learnt how to drive uphill.

Beautiful winter wonder forest

The whole family enjoyed the trip. With our own car, it was no problem to reach all the destinations. Cooking together in the accommodation promoted family cohesion. I can only recommend a city tour of Passau. The cathedral in particular is worth a visit.

Pure nature in the Bavarian Forest, there is something for every nature lover. I spent a few days on a farm with my family. It was in a very beautiful location. The children were allowed to help with the tallarbrit. I can also highly recommend the hikes through the national park. All the paths were well signposted.

Forest treetop trail in Sankt Engelmar. Here you can climb an approx. 60 metre high observation tower. The view extends as far as the Zugspitze.

I would recommend the Bavarian Forest all year round, because whether it's winter sports or outdoor activities, there's always something to do here.

We drove to a holiday home in Spiegelau by car. From there, we went hiking almost every day after picking up food from a bakery. I really liked the paths there and we saw lots of different animals. We also went to a wildlife park. The children especially liked it, even though the animals were hard to see because the enclosures were so big. But of course it's better for the animals. On the last day we went to Falkenstein Castle. That was also very interesting. We ate in the restaurant there. Then we took the car to the holiday home and back again.

We often went hiking in the beautiful forest here. Once we went to the wildlife park. We also visited Falkenstein Castle.

It's smart to install a hiking app to discover new and less-travelled paths.

The forest is so beautifully natural and simply relaxing.
