Your Travel Experience with Avellera
Full Day Self Guided Hiking to Ramsau & Hintersee
Experience Bavaria’s alpine beauty on this self-guided hiking adventure to Ramsau & Hintersee. Start in Ramsau bei Berchtesgaden, where you can capture the famous Ramsau Church with the stunning mountain backdrop. Then, continue to Hintersee, a crystal-clear lake surrounded by towering peaks and pine forests.
Follow the 3 km Hintersee Loop Trail, an easy scenic walk along the lake, and explore the Zauberwald (Magic Forest)—a mystical gorge with a rushing river and moss-covered boulders. For a longer adventure, extend your hike into Schärtenalm or follow the Painters’ Path, which inspired 19th-century artists.
Enjoy a relaxed day admiring mountain reflections, stopping for lunch at Seeklause restaurant, or bringing a picnic by the lake. If time allows, take a detour to Wimbachklamm, a beautiful nearby gorge, before heading back to Berchtesgaden.
This hike offers a perfect mix of serene nature, gentle trails, and optional alpine routes, making it ideal for both leisurely explorers and adventurous hikers.
