Tour report

Through the Hinterautal to the Source of the Isar

We started at the car park by Mittenwald railway station and set off from there on our E-bikes towards the Hinterautal valley. With every kilometre, everyday life faded further into the background. Gravel beneath our tyres, fresh mountain air and the silence between the towering rock faces defined the ride. The crystal-clear river that accompanied us through this extraordinary landscape was particularly impressive. At times, it felt as though we were no longer travelling through the familiar Alpine region, but somewhere in Canada. The atmosphere was immense and overwhelming. At the source of the Isar, we reached the defining moment of this tour. After a break, the loop took us back to the car park at Mittenwald railway station. A beautiful bike tour that will stay with us for a long time.

Personal note

The ride into the Hinterautal valley and the moment at the source of the Isar made this tour particularly special for us. A beautiful bike tour that we would happily ride again anytime and readily recommend.
