This family's experience:

Activities: We took a walk through the Zauberwald (Enchanted Forest) near Hintersee. The path goes along the lake and over large boulders, with the return path running along the Ramsauer Ache, a wild river

Highlights: This little afternoon walk was our absolute highlight! The kids enjoyed clambering on the rocks and the forest scenery ✨
