The tour starts in Scharnitz inmidst a grand mountain
scenery of the Karwendel and Wetterstein. Either by bicycle or a hiking
tour up to the spring of Isar is a special experience. Surrounding the
spring is a great mountainbiking area.
Grand varied scenery accompany you during your ride to Scharnitz, Mittenwald
and on to the Sylvenstein reservoir.
Now the gentle emerald green hills of the xxx prevail, which are then
xxx by the soft Isar meadows around Munich. Many cultural points of interest
are passed: picture-book Upper Bavaria in Mittenwald and Bad Tölz,
the great city Munich and architectural jewels as Freising and Landshut.
Worth mentioning is a great medieval spectacle, the "Marriage at
Landshut". This sophisticated festival of the Middle Ages remembers
the marriage of count George the Rich with the polish princess Hedwig
in Landshut in 1475. This marriage united the christian Occident. Next
date: June 25th to July 17th, 2005. For more information visit the website

Generally the tour follows rough country- and forest lanes, gruelled side
roads or asphalted roads, all easy to ride. Please note, that the Isar-Cycle
Path is not signposted through to the mouth of Isar into Danube. We recommend
to use additional maps. Bikeline cycle book "Isar Radweg" is
unfortunately only available in German language, anyhow very detailed
maps make it worth buying.
