Swimming, Sailing & Surfing

Sun, sea and fun: we have provided plentiful resources in  Gstadt-Gollenshausen for you. Sailing boats of nearly every class: electric boats, paddle boats and traditional rowing boats wait for their "hire captain“. From the Ganszipfel to the Katzfischbucht–two harbours, three public swimming areas and in between, private swimming areas for the boarding houses and boot hire companies, are available for our guests for water sports or  for just having fun in the lake. The water is not dangerous even for the smallest "water frogs", as most of the underwater shelf is flat. There are sailing and surfing courses for all ages and abilities at the surfing school in Gstadt as well as the Chiemsee Yachting School in Gollenshausen. For anyone who would like to get away from all that’s happening on the lake, there are also quiet forests, moorland areas and numerous small lakes inland, waiting for their friends of nature.

Walken und Wandern

Walking and Hiking

A comprehensive network of paths spread across the alpine foothills in Chiemgau lies waiting for the walker or hiker to enjoy. From the easy path along the lakeside, to the Alpine Tour on local mountains, like the Kampenwand, all grades of difficulty are covered with regular Nordic Walking courses to round off what’s on offer. Two big events, the "Königswalk" on Herreninsel as well as "Skate the Chiemsee“ in autumn, underline the appeal of this type of “trend” sport in our region. Detailed maps are available at the Tourist Info in Gstadt.

Radeln

Cycling

In Chiemgau, you will find a wide network of surfaced cycling tracks for all levels, as well as rarely used country lanes and paths that lead through a diverse countryside of wood and moor, just wanting to be discovered. Some routes in the outskirts of Gstadt, are parts of well-known walks such as the Via Julia, the Benedikt Trail, the Salinenweg, the Achtalweg, the Jakobsweg, the BavariiCycling Loop or the Mozart Cycle Path. The Chiemsee ring-route bus service offers something special: a bus with cycle carriers drives around the Chiemsee, giving you the chance to leave out some stops on your Chiemsee bike trip, only cycling the sections of the road that really appeal to you.

Chiemsee and the rivers Alz and the Tirol Ache are bodies of water full of more than thirteen types of fish, including eel, perch, pike, carp, whitefish and lake char.

Even the hobby or sports fisherman can pursue his hobby in a variety of ways, e.g. fly-fishing: the fishing season is open between 1.5. and 31.10. for the whole Chiemsee, apart from the “no-fishing zone” at the estuary of the Ache river.
