Until 10.000 years ago, the glacier tongues reached from the Alps to the foreland. An extraordinary moraine landscape, full of lakes, rivers and streams, remained after the melting of the glacier tongues. In addition to more information about the geological history of the area, there will also be architectural highlights provided on our cycle tour following the Würm.

We will travel from the centre of Munich heading west, passing the Hirschgarten and Nymphenburg Castle and finally reaching the Blutenburg. The Würm circles around the baroque former hunting chateau and the attached castle chapel.

Of course you will hear several anecdotes about Sissi and Possenhofen Castle as well as the so-called Fairy Tale King Ludwig II and his mysterious death in Lake Starnberg.

Great tour! We had a group take part in the Munich's Hotspots bike tour in June. Thoroughly enjoyed the route and the guides were very knowledgeable! Highly recommend. Thank you!

Manfred is the best guide you could wish for. We were 6 women from Europe and had a fantastic 2 hours through Munich with wonderful weather. Manfred was super flexible and agreed to reschedule twice, which was incredibly accommodating. And then we were late and he was happy and relaxed and we had a lot of fun and learned something about Munich. If you're cycling sightseeing, then with Manfred! Your rock.

My husband and I loved our private tour with Manfred Platz Radlguide! Our guide was very knowledgeable, took us to the main tourist attractions as well as the local gems. It was a wonderful way to get familiar and see everything Munich has to offer. Lovely city, great tour, highly recommend it!
