The Olympic Park is a large pedestrianised area, where you can take a leisurely stroll and venture up the ‘Fernsehturm’ to see amazing views of the city.

Beer lovers will be excited by a trip to the Hofbrauhaus!

There are various campsites to choose from, but Thalkirchen offers a very central location, situated near the zoo, or one in the North West of the city gives you a fantastic site with lots of facilities.

This area is truly magical, with fantastic lakes surrounded by mountains, gorgeous scenery as well as a castle to rival them all, Neuschwanstein Castle.
