The Tegernsee
Fed by crystal-clear mountain streams, Lake Tegernsee is one of the cleanest bodies of water in Germany. The 6.5 kilometer long and 1.4 kilometer wide lake is accessible on almost all shores.

At a total of eleven landing stages, passengers board Schifffahrt Tegernsee or take advantage of the service provided by the "Überführer," who traditionally rows locals and guests from the town of Tegernsee to Rottach-Egern and vice versa at the narrowest part of the lake for a small fee.

Places around the lake
Over the centuries, each of the four communities of Bad Wiessee, Gmund, Rottach-Egern and Kreuth, as well as the town of Tegernsee, has preserved its independent and typical Unadulterated tradition, exquisite culture, Alpine elegance, pure nature - the Tegernsee vacation region presents itself to its visitors as both rich in tradition and cosmopolitan, and scores with the themes of enjoyment, health, glamour & fun.

Tegernsee hospitality
