Mangfall cycle path

The cycle path connects Munich with Rosenheim and runs along the Mangfall river from Feldkirchen-Westerham. The 63-kilometre route has hardly any inclines and always offers beautiful places to rest.

The Mangfall cycle path is a well-developed route from Munich to Rosenheim. In Feldkirchen-Westerham, cyclists meet the River Mangfall, which has its source in Lake Tegernsee and makes a bend here. The route continues along the Mangfall or on flat paths close to the river via Kolbermoor to Rosenheim. There the Mangfall flows into the Inn.

In recent years, the river area has been beautifully renaturalised and invites you to cool your feet, picnic and relax.

It is suitable for children due to the few gentle gradients, but touring bikes, trekking bikes or mountain bikes are recommended.

• From Munich’s Ostbahnhof, the Mangfall Cycle Route leads out of Munich along cycle paths running alongside the roads, via Neuperlach, Perlach, Ottobrunn and Höhenkirchen to Aying (home to a large brewery beer garden).
• In Feldolling, a tower-like ‘water castle’ with huge pipes and several reservoirs catches the eye: the Vagen hydroelectric power station. In Vagen itself, the beautifully laid-out village is well worth a visit, as is the Baroque Church of the Assumption.
• The Weihenlinden pilgrimage church, with its outstanding stucco work, the Museum of Animal and Natural History, and the Salus Auwald biotope are all attractions in Bruckmühl.
• Further along the route, the Blindham Mountain Animal Park invites younger visitors to come and play.
• Maxlrain Castle, with its brewery beer garden, and the spa town of Bad Aibling, with its historic buildings and artistic ‘Lüftl’ murals, are a feast for the eyes. Passing the beautifully restored Mangfall river, with its flower-lined banks and rest areas, the route continues on to Kolbermoor.
• The Spinnerei industrial monument in Kolbermoor lies directly on the Mangfall Cycle Route and serves as a unique reminder of Kolbermoor’s industrial past.
• On a relatively flat stretch, you reach Rosenheim and the confluence with the Inn on the site of the former State Garden Show grounds, where you can relax in the many cafés of this former salt-trading town (sights: the locomotive shed, the old town, the Woodworking Museum, the Inn Museum, the Riedergarten and the Municipal Gallery).
