Discover Schliersee
Schliersee offers an unbeatable combination for a day trip that is both relaxing and action-packed, blending the natural thrill of cliff jumping with the man-made excitement of an alpine coaster. Dive into the crystal-clear, cool waters of the mountain lake from various heights, providing an invigorating experience amidst stunning Bavarian scenery.
I recommend doing the hike first and then chilling at the lake. This is especially important because the Alpine Coaster closes at around 17:00 (please check the official website). The jumps are located at a private beach (Strandbad Schliersee). You have to pay to access it, but usually after 17:00, you get a discounted price.
The private beach also features a restaurant with delicious food. Alternatively, you can bring your own food and enjoy it there.
