[2025 Ramsau Attraction] Travel Guide for Hintersee (Updated Apr)

A very memorable attraction The happiest job is Ramsau driver Passing through the magic forest, slowly driving into Hintersee It's like the European version of Peach Blossom Spring ———— Munich➡️Ramsau 🌟Take 🚄RE5 from Munich Hbf to Freilassing (one train every hour) 🌟Then transfer to 🚄S4 at the same station to Berchtesgaden Hbf (note that the specific transfer platform is subject to actual conditions, and the transfer time is very short, please hurry up) 🌟After exiting the station, take bus 🚌846 at the station entrance to reach Ramsau Church, Magic Forest, and Hintersee (one bus every hour) The return trip is the same~ ⚠️ The last train from Berchtesgaden Hbf to Munich Hbf is at 18:32 ⚠️So you must catch the last bus back to Berchtesgarden Hbf at around 5 o'clock. To be on the safe side, you can take the 4 o'clock bus back to Berchtesgarden Hbf. ———— The author took the 8:56 RE5 train and arrived at Ramsau Church at around 12:30 pm. He then chose to take bus 846 to Hintersee, then hiked from Hintersee to the Magic Forest, and finally took bus 846 back to Berchtesgadend. This kind of trip is not rushed, and there is enough time to enjoy the beautiful scenery~ ———— If you choose to hike, you can bring your own bread and other supplies, or you can buy some food near Berchtesgaden. I recommend a super affordable burrito shop, where you can eat a full meal for 6 euros per person. You can search Google Maps for details, it seems to be called Berlin Dona~ There is also a bakery whose cheesecake is super delicious and has a very delicate taste, but it is cash only. If you want to go to the town of Berchtesgadend for dinner, it is recommended to bring enough cash in case of emergency.

#europetrip If you’re a hiker looking for breathtaking landscapes and unforgettable trails, Berchtesgaden should be at the top of your list. Nestled in the Bavarian Alps, this stunning region offers some of the best hiking opportunities in Germany. Start your adventure at Königssee, a crystal-clear lake surrounded by towering peaks. The trail along the lake offers spectacular views and a serene atmosphere that’ll make you feel like you’ve stepped into a fairytale. For a challenge, head to the Watzmann mountain, the third-highest peak in Germany. With its rugged paths and impressive summit, it’s perfect for those looking to test their limits and enjoy jaw-dropping views from the top. If you’re after something a bit less demanding but equally scenic, the Obersee and Hintersee offer easy hikes with enchanting views of the surrounding mountains, making them perfect for a relaxing day out in nature. The Ramsau Church, with its picture-perfect backdrop of mountains and water, is also a must-see along your journey. After a day of hiking, reward yourself with a visit to one of Berchtesgaden’s cozy alpine huts, where you can indulge in hearty Bavarian food and a warm drink while soaking in the beauty of the Alps. Whether you’re a seasoned adventurer or just looking to enjoy some beautiful scenery, Berchtesgaden is a hiker’s paradise that will leave you wanting more.

It was a one day trip to explore Hintersee Forest, Germany. 📍Ramsau bei Berchtesgaden, 83486 Bavaria, Germany. - We arrived early to take in the serenity of Lake Hintersee and the surrounding forest. It’s best to start at the main parking area near the lake (Hintersee Parkplatz), where trails begin. 💰Parking fees apply, around €5 per day. -We began by hiking the Zauberwald Trail (Magic Forest), a stunning 2-hour walk through the forest and along the lake, offering mesmerizing views of the mountains and crystal-clear water 🙌 I would advise you to wear sturdy shoes; the terrain is rocky in parts. Bring water and snacks, as there are limited food options in the forest. 📸 The enchanting views and peaceful atmosphere make for great photo opportunities. Keep an eye out for wildlife like deer and various bird species 🐦 After the hike, we headed to Gasthof Auzinger for a hearty Bavarian lunch. I highly recommend trying their schnitzel and fish caught from nearby streams. The restaurant gets busy during peak hours, so it’s worth reserving a table if you plan to dine here. 💰€15 📍 Am See 61, 83486 Ramsau bei Berchtesgaden. We spent a relaxing afternoon renting a boat at Hintersee Boat Rentals and took a peaceful ride across the lake, surrounded by breathtaking Mountain View 🏔️ 💰€8 for 30 minutes. We ended our day with a leisurely walk around Hintersee, a 1-hour loop that offers picturesque spots to watch the sunset 🌅 ❗️Be mindful of the time, the trail can get dark quickly once the sun sets, so carry a small flashlight or headlamp. ❗️Check the weather forecast, as conditions in the mountains can change quickly. Hintersee Forest is a nature lover's paradise, and with a bit of planning, we enjoyed every moment of the peaceful, scenic experience 💯💯💯 #forest #trip #nature

Ramsau is located in the western part of the Berchtesgaden region, extending deep into the Alps. Surrounded by mountains and mirrored by clear waters, it is renowned for Hintersee (also known as Hinter Lake), the Zauberwald (Magic Forest), and the Parish Church of St. Sebastian (Pfarrkirche St. Sebastian). Today, it is a paradise for photographers, while in the 19th century, it was a haven for painters. A 'Painters' Path of Ramsau' records the Bavarian natural scenery and local customs captured by Romantic painters of the 19th century with their brushes. The unique landslide scenery of the Magic Forest was created by a massive rock collapse 3500 years ago, and the picturesque Hintersee is a dammed lake formed by a landslide. Faced with such incredible sights, one can only marvel that only the hands of the Creator could paint such a magnificent and fantastical picture.

Houhu is located to the west of Berchtesgaden. The Houhu Lake is a dammed lake caused by landslides. The scenery is definitely not lost to the lake. The lake is open and clear, and it takes about an hour to walk around. When the weather is good, local people can row and swim in the lake. It is quiet and warm, and the blue sky and the green hills reflect each other. The cute wild duck will walk to your side to play, making people feel like they are in the peach blossom source. The scenery after the winter lake is frozen is also very moving. Houhu is also an ideal place to stay in Ramsau. The lakeside is right in front of the lake. It is convenient to take photos of sunrise and sunset. The Houhu Lake is located at the entrance of the magic forest and is very convenient for hiking. It is very quiet, not like a tourist, more like a place to go on holiday. Compared to King Lake, which has long been famous, Houhu is like a small family in the deep, and many people who visited the King Lake even ignored her directly. She does not have the high height of obersee, but her beauty is not inferior. There is a soft and quiet feeling that makes you feel particularly comfortable. The level of the lake is like a mirror, the lake is clear and clear, and the distant mountains are like dreams. They are hidden by the clouds, as if they are suspended in the air, and the mirage is as ethereal as the illusion. From a certain perspective, it is more artistic than King Lake. Parking: There is a public parking lot P5 by the lake. There is a discount card for 4 hours and 2 Euros. There is no discount for 4 hours and 4 Euros. After the lake is not big, even if you add magic forest for 4 hours, it is enough.
