Summer activities

As soon as the last snow has melted, we're back on our bikes and hiking boots. Numerous hiking and cycling trails lead through valley and mountain along unique panoramic views, past rustic alpine huts and lush meadows. Sometimes the long summer days seem never-ending, until the last rays of sun finally disappear behind the peaks for the night.

Hiking

Relaxed hiking, mountain tours, themed hikes and Nordic walking are just some of the hiking options. There are also routes of different difficulty levels and lengths for every type of hiker.

Cycling

The region is particularly popular with mountain bikers, who can really work off their energy over the mountains and valleys. But there are also plenty of "leisurely" tours that take you past alpine pastures, inns and beer gardens to take a breather.

Swimming in the natural lake

You can take a dip in the cool water at many natural swimming lakes, which boast excellent water quality. In addition to the 10,000 m² bathing lake in Inzell, the Tüttensee and Waginger See lakes are also recommended.

Winter activities

When Mother Hulda has been busy, nature is transformed into a true winter paradise. White mountain peaks, glistening mountain lakes and snow-covered slopes entice die-hard snow fans outside, even in icy temperatures. This is the special magic of winter and a unique opportunity for skiing, tobogganing, snowshoeing and much more ...

As a rule, the ski lifts open between December and March - assuming good snow conditions. The best way to find up-to-date information about lift and piste openings is to visit the websites of the respective lift operators.

However, winter also offers plenty of indoor alternatives, e.g. if the magic of snow is a little slow in coming or the weather is simply too unstable.

Skiing

Skiing at the Kessel lifts in Inzell is a relaxed experience. The approximately 2 kilometres of pistes are ideal for beginners of all ages. Not far away, however, there are also more challenging pistes for more experienced and action-seeking skiers.

Tobogganing

Tobogganing is possible on almost every natural slope from the first snowfall. It goes up and down - again and again! It gets more exciting on the 600 metre long Adlgaß natural toboggan run through the forest or on the Kesselalm.

Snowshoeing

A winter hike through the snow-covered forest? Better with snowshoes! With the right equipment, you can explore the snow paradise far away from the hiking trails. True to the motto: "The journey is the reward!"

Chiemgau Tourismus e.V.

Cross-country skiing

Depending on the snow conditions, trails of varying difficulty and length open in and around Inzell. In total, around 80 kilometres of varied cross-country trails can be covered.

Excursion tips

Inzell is an ideal starting point for day trips in the surrounding area. Places worth seeing such as Ruhpolding, Berchtesgaden, the Chiemsee and Königssee lakes or even the border with Austria are within easy reach. Perhaps you would like to combine several excursion destinations? However, it is all too often difficult to say goodbye to the impressive places quickly, so our tip: don't take on too much for one day!

Königssee

The elongated mountain lake lies in a fjord-like valley between the Watzmann and Hagengebirge mountains and is a first-class spot for holiday photos. In addition to hiking trails, there is also a boat hire and passenger boat service.

Tips for families

Finding the right holiday adventure for the whole family can sometimes be a real challenge. In the Inzell holiday region, however, you are sure to find the right holiday activity for young and old. Inzell itself is home to a number of playgrounds that provide short-term fun for the little ones. Numerous adventure stations such as the Soccer Park or educational trails through the countryside, on the other hand, will appeal to middle-aged children.

Meanwhile, the whole family gets their money's worth at the Inzell water park.
