Pure nature — places to visit in Lower Bavaria
Bad Birnbach lies in the heart of the Lower Bavarian thermal spa country, right next to the Bavarian Forest. Around the spa town, hiking trails, Nordic walking routes and the Danube and Inn cycle paths invite you to relaxed encounters with nature between river landscapes, woods and wide fields.
Even away from sport, the region offers plenty of ways to experience nature consciously – for example in the Bavarian Forest National Park with its woodlands, treetop walkways and nature parks. Tips for walks, cycle tours and excursions are always available at reception in the Churfürstenhof wellness hotel.
