Starnberg Five-Lakes-Region

Midway between Munich and the Alps

Sparkling lakes, beer gardens, houses with gorgeously decorated facades - Upper Bavaria's towns and landscapes appear to have tumbled straight out of a fairy tale.

Situated just a stone's throw away from the majestic scenery of the Bavarian Alps and less than 30 kilometres south of Munich, the holiday region known as the "Five-Lakes-Region of Starnberg" is a holiday maker's paradise. The area is home to no less than nine nature reserves and more than two thirds of the landscape is under official protection. Stunning scenery, clean air and the exceptional quality of the water make the Five-Lakes-Region an ideal place for visitors to unwind and relax.
