Lake Waging

Highlight • Lake

Right next to the bridge that leads across Lake Waginger you will find the Strandbad Tettenhausen. A large lawn, a jetty with diving board, a non-swimmer area and the lifeguard make the beach a perfect stop on a family bike tour - but even without children you will enjoy the cool water on a hot summer day.

If you like it here, you can stay at the adjacent campsite. The restaurant Badwirt also provides for the physical well-being.

Opening times and entrance fees can be found at strandbad-tettenhausen.de.

A pretty, tranquil market square, a place where you can linger for a while. The small town of Waging is worth a visit and well worth seeing.

In the heart of the Rupertiwinkel cultural region lies one of the most diverse hiking destinations in Upper Bavaria. Countless hiking routes in Chiemgau gently curve past Lake Waginger. Excursions to mysterious places as well as well-marked circular hiking trails and educational trails open up the natural jewels in untouched nature. Free your mind between fauna and flora and let yourself be enchanted by the impressions while hiking.

Very narrow streets and a lot of traffic. When we visited there were still market stalls set up around which the cars swerved very quickly. Partly dangerous with the bike.
