Forest Trails on Herrenchiemsee Island

Highlight • Trail

Some of the forest paths lead directly along the water. Very idyllic, especially if you don't follow the mass of people to the castle, but rather travel in the more remote areas of the island.

Two paths beautifully laid out as an avenue parallel to each other lead directly to the castle. From the castle you can see between the two avenues directly to the lake and the Alps. The carriage ride to the castle (chargeable) of course leads along the avenue.

On the Herreninsel you can visit the most famous attraction of the region all year round: Herrenchiemsee Castle. King Ludwig II had it built on the model of Versailles from 1878 until his death in 1886. The state rooms of the palace can be visited as part of a guided tour. It is also worth visiting the König Ludwig Museum, the gardens with the water features
