Oberammergau – The biggest draw here is the world famous, centuries old Passion Play, but Oberammergau itself is a charming village. Stop in the tourism office for special hiking and biking maps: there are guided walks and a couple places to rent bikes. |

No matter when you’re here, this is the place in Germany to buy carvings – every street seems to have a woodcarving shop. (Ask about visits to the woodcarving school nearby.) |

Linderhof Castle – Combine two treats by biking out to Mad King Ludwig’s Linderhof Castle (locals claim it was his favorite). Just a few minutes bike ride from town, it boasts an English Garden, a grotto, several pavilions and a lovely palace. En route you’ll pass Graswang, a typical Bavarian village, where you can stop for some current berry juice. |
