When the snow melts in summer, the area around the Explorer Hotel Bayrischzell transforms into a true paradise for hikers, trail runners, and bikers. You're right at the starting point of some of the best tours in all of Upper Bavaria. The legendary Wendelstein mountain towers above the valley, practically calling your name. Whether you conquer the challenging elevation gains in fast-hiking style, prefer relaxed panoramic hikes through nature with your family, or tear up the forest trails on your mountain bike – there are no limits here.
For the trail runners among you, the region offers an endless network of rooty paths, flowing sections, and steep climbs. And the best part: when you return to your base camp after your mountain bike ride, completely covered in mud and happy, our bike wash station will be waiting for you. You can quickly get your bike ready again, hang it in your lockable sports locker, and then hop in the shower with peace of mind.
The sports spa at the Bayrischzell accommodation offers wellness facilities for athletes: a sauna, steam room, and infrared cabin. Those who prefer asphalt will find ideal conditions for road cycling on the winding mountain passes in the area, such as the Sudelfeld Pass. It's no wonder Bayrischzell is known as a top destination for endurance athletes.
For a refreshing dip, you can visit nearby lakes such as Schliersee, Tegernsee, and Thiersee. The Alpenfreibad (Alpine outdoor swimming pool) is also located directly in Bayrischzell.
Bayrischzell reveals its second, no less spectacular side as soon as the first snow falls and the temperatures drop. Your hotel in Bayrischzell is perfectly located for all winter lovers. The Sudelfeld ski area, one of the most diverse ski resorts in all of Germany, is just a stone's throw away. Here you'll find wide carving slopes, action-packed freeride spots, and cool snow parks for the freestyle crowd.
But Bayrischzell is also famous for something else entirely: it's an absolute mecca for cross-country skiers! Right outside the hotel's door, you can access a vast, perfectly groomed network of trails that winds its way through the entire valley. Whether you prefer classic or skating style, you're guaranteed to find something to enjoy here. And for those who prefer a more leisurely pace, there are idyllic winter hiking trails and snowshoe trails that lead you deep into the pristine nature of the Bavarian Alps.
After a day of action on the slopes or cross-country trails, you return to the hotel. You can store your skis or snowboard in our heated lockers. This allows your boots to dry overnight, and the next morning you'll slip into warm, dry shoes – a game-changer for every winter sports enthusiast.
