Biking trip: Salzburg - Königssee - Hintersee - Chiemsee - Wasserburg - Freising

German Pfingstferien (Whitsuntide holidays) was promissing very nice weather, so me and Tomaž decided to hit the road with our bicycles and visit some of the nicest places down the Alps. Alltogether we cycled 250km ;)


Day 1 (26.5.): we took train to Salzburg and then, cycled to Königssee, which is Germany's third deepest lake. One can't walk around it, because it's surrounded by high mountains (such as Watzmann), so only possible transport are electrical boats. We went by boat to the other side and to St. Bartholomä, a famous pilgrimage church. After that we drove to small, cute Hintersee and then, to the house, with beautiful view on Alps, where we slept.
Distance: 59km  http://www.mapmyride.com/routes/fullscreen/97063065/
