Category: Day Trips

Some of the best days in Germany start with a regional train. We live in Kiefersfelden, right on the Austrian border, and we’re surrounded by lakes, Alpine towns and old market squares that are easy to reach without a car. Here you’ll find day trips you can do by train, many of them from Munich, with ticket tips, timings and what’s worth seeing once you arrive.

In Advent, a lot of these trips are built around a Christmas market, like Rosenheim or the island market on the Fraueninsel in the Chiemsee, which you reach by boat.
