Landscape and trails in the wider Dachau travel destination

The wider Dachau travel destination offers different ways to enjoy the outdoors. Karlsfelder See lies immediately next to the built-up area of northern Karlsfeld, covers 58.2 hectares, and is located in the Dachau district. It is used year-round for walking, jogging, cycling, and recreation. Another option is the “Lebensader Maisach” trail: it runs for about 2.5 kilometers alongside the Maisach River and is accessible to people with disabilities from Bergkirchen or Günding.

The two places offer different experiences: Karlsfelder See is primarily a recreation area used throughout the year, while Lebensader Maisach is a specific riverside route with named accessible access points. In the Amper floodplains, a patient and lucky walker may also spot signs of beavers: their distinctive feeding marks are visible.

Cultural sites and history in the Dachau travel destination

In Altomünster, the “Kunst und Kultur um den Klosterberg” walking trail circles the monastery and passes important sights.

The now-closed Altomünster monastery, which had existed for 500 years, is one example featured in the exhibition.

Dachau’s district museum focuses on different topics: its three floors explore settlement patterns, the town’s history, guilds and market rights, crafts and trade, everyday life, festive customs, and popular religious traditions. The Dachau Picture Gallery’s permanent collection features landscape and genre paintings from the 19th and early 20th centuries. Visitors interested in historic townscapes will find an ensemble in Dachau’s old town that is protected as a historic ensemble and invites them to stroll and linger.

Dachau Wittelsbach Palace was once a popular summer residence of the Wittelsbach family. On the ascent to the palace, views extend across the Munich Gravel Plain and the state capital of Munich to the Alps. Guided tours take place regularly; dates are announced as they become available.
