Schliersee Youth Hostel is located in one of Europe's most spectacular landscapes ? the Bavarian Alps. Only 50 min far away from MUNICH CITY. A little bit more than 1 hour from the both main cities INNSBRUCK and SALZBURG far away. The mountains, nearby lake Schliersee, the rolling foothills of Upper Bavaria, local ski areas and the cities of Munich, Innsbruck and Salzburg not far away add up to provide plenty of attractions for every season of the year. Situated in the Josefsthal district of Schliersee, a small town that lies at an elevation of 800-1900 metres, the small and well-kept hostel is cosy and homely in atmosphere. Built in the Upper Bavarian style, it nestles in magnificent mountainous scenery at the foot of the Jägerkamp and the Brecherspitze peaks and is close to Tegernsee Valley and the Wendelstein range. Thanks to its location close to the Schliersee and Spitzingsee Ski Area ? one of the larger winter sport centres in the Bavarian Alps and as such known for offering snow well into April ? the youth hostel mainly focuses on Alpine, sporting and nature interests. We offer an attractive programme of activities ranging from treetop rope course climbing through guided tours of avalanche-protection works to windsurfing courses, not to mention mountain bike tours, sunrise hiking, hut-to-hut hiking tours and day excursions to destinations of interest. Schliersee Youth Hostel is particularly suited for family stays.
