The idyllic Rantscher Weiher lake is an ideal spot for a short break. Together with the small boathouse, it makes a lovely photo opportunity.

The view from the Zeitberg is breathtaking. Your gaze wanders from the mountains far out into the Alpine foothills. Just a few steps away you can take a break and let yourself be pampered in the Hörnlehütte.

Beautiful hiking trails lead here and you have a good view - sometimes of the mountains, sometimes towards Staffelsee and Murnau. Highly recommended!

The Staffelsee is a 4.6 km long and 3.7 km wide lake in the Ammer-Loisach hill country in the southernmost district of Upper Bavaria, the Garmisch-Partenkirchen district. It is almost eight square kilometers in size and has a depth of almost 40 meters. Very nice area for bike tours.
