Gravel Bike Tour Around Lake Walchensee
The third stage of the Transexplorer Tour starts at the Explorer Hotel Garmisch - here you turn immediately right onto Frickenstraße and turn left at the very end of the road.
Soon you will see the Loisach River. At the Loisach Bridge, you continue straight ahead for a while through wooded areas.
As you emerge from the forest, you will come to a crossroads, where you will later find your way back. Here you take the path that continues straight ahead over Seestraße - can you already see Lake Walchensee? We hope you remembered your swimsuit if the weather is good ;)
Continuing along the lake, you will pass rivers that flow into the lake. Did you know that Lake Walchen is one of the deepest and largest Alpine lakes in Germany?
After circling the lake, you'll come out at the aforementioned intersection again. Here, turn left onto Obernach Straße and continue straight through Wallgau to Partenkirchen, mostly keeping to the left.
Pass Lake Barmsee towards Garmisch-Partenkirchen, and from the Wankbahn cable car, follow Münchner Straße. After crossing the Loisach River, turn right and continue straight until you turn right again and then left onto Frickenstraße. Just a few more meters, and you're back at your starting point!
