Travel deals Drachselsried - traditional resort along the glass road!
The Bavarian Forest Midlands stretch from Lower Bavaria over the Upper Palatine to the Czech border where it meets the Bohemian Forest. In 1970, the Bavarian Forest National Park was established, which together with the Bohemian Forest makes up the largest connected forest preservation in Central Europe at an area of 900 km². Not only dense woods, but also clean air, crystal-clear streams, picture book lakes, and high moors make this region an ideal destination for those seeking a little R&R as well as hikers, families, and nature-lovers. The cosy resorts of the Eastern Bavarian districts radiate pure charm and offer tradition in combination with a broad range of leisure activities. About 320 km of excellently marked hiking trails that lead to destinations like the highest mountains Großer Arber (1,456 m), Große Rachel (1,453 m), and Lusen (1,373 m) invite you to discover the natural setting. The untouched forest in the heart of Europe exudes a very unique fascination with its variety of plant life, colourfulness, and variety of animals. Numerous endangered species like the lynx, peregrine falcon, fish otter, and wildcat live alongside the more common forest inhabitants in the Bavarian Forest. Take a discovery tour and experience the power and vitality of the wild.
