Excursión ciclista de un día de Lenggries a Jachenau

A mellow Alpine-valley spin from Lenggries to Jachenau. Roll out of Lenggries by the Isar—this Brauneck base town has plenty of cafés if you need a pre-ride espresso—then follow quiet lanes and signed cycleways toward the Jachenau valley. The route is about 21 km with roughly 236 m of climbing: think gentle rises through meadows and short forested sections rather than big mountain grinds. It’s mostly paved/asphalt, with a few brief gravel/pebblestone stretches, so wider road tires are nice but not essential. You’ll have mostly calm roads, with a couple of busier bits—stay alert near village approaches.

Scenery is classic Upper Bavaria: river glimpses, wooden farmhouses, and mountain backdrops. Jachenau itself is a long, spread-out village known for its traditional timber houses and easy access to Walchensee and the Herzogstand–Heimgarten massif—perfect for a post-ride stroll or pastry stop. Expect a relaxed couple of hours with photo breaks; add time if you detour to the water.
