WHAT’S THE BEST PLACE TO VISIT IN EUROPE? NO CROWDS IN SUMMER!!!
In this episode, we leave Munich and head to the Bavarian Alps. With quaint cottages, stunning scenery, epic hikes, this proves to be our favorite place in Europe by far. Definitely one to put on your bucket list. We’re Gary and Denise from Total Tracks Travels. Join us as we take a break from Overland 4×4. In this series, we travel across Europe by train, starting in Rome, then traveling to Arezo, Florence, Munich, Bavarian Alps, then Prague before flying to London. Yeah, look at this nugget. She got a rock sack in the back, one on her front. Well, we’re going off to the Bavarian Alps for a few days. So, we’ve um just packed up a few bits and left our suitcases at the hotel cuz then we come back here for a night when we’re done out there. Yeah, that’s right. So, uh we’re off to the station now, aren’t we? Yeah. And we had a bit of a shower last night, so a bit wet this morning under foot. Mhm. But, um well, last night and this morning, bit of thunderstorm, wasn’t it? Yeah. But, uh that’s all good. We just got to get to the station now. Get on this train. Lucky it’s only 5 minute walk. Good training, isn’t it? It’s going to get you fit anyway, ain’t it? Yeah. Or it kill us or it kill us. Yeah. Where you’re either going to be fit or you going to be hooked. That’s it. That’s German, is it? Yeah. We’re having a nightmare. We looked it all up online. What train we need to get and um what happened at the ticket machine? Oh, I just want to book a ticket or cancelled. It just says Johnny can cancel. Johnny cancel journey cancelled. We even got a lady German lady coming. She got on her phone like we did the website that says we can take this journey and it won’t let us put the ticket. So, it’s a bloody nightmare, is it? It’s a bloody nightmare. So, we’re just going to get on the train. Well, we’re hoping it will come when it’s supposed to. It’s meant to be here on 9:31 this morning, but it turns out it’s the S5. So, it’s the SP 5. Yeah. From Rosenheim up there. It’s come up now. What’s that? S5 up there. Uh oh, yeah. S5. Yes. So, it does exist. It’s going to be 13 minutes. So, um it’s a little bit odd. And even though it’s saying the journey, it wouldn’t let us then get to the actual buy a ticket. So, it’s meant to be a direct journey, isn’t it? To tag and see. Changed twice. Got changed twice now cuz there’s something going on. Yeah. There’s um I was going to say road works in track works. Track works. Night works. It said though, but it shouldn’t be mucked up today, should it? I suppose if they got certain tracks, they’re replacing it. So, we hope we can get to Tugans. Tugy. Hope so. And we hope we don’t get a fine, but Gary took a photograph of the machine to show that he wouldn’t let us book it. A ticket. So, we’ll see what happens. Well, that’s a good start. The train has turned up. So, we’re just planning to cr [Laughter] And we need to change here and get the change to I know what’s called I don’t know. Which winging it? Yeah. So, we’re off. We got to go to track three. So, around here beyond. I guess these guys in front are going out to the Bavarian Alps as well. They got their hiking gear, hiking sticks. They got a bit less gear than us, guys. They’re the professionals. I thought you said you was a professional. I am. Look at me. Don’t listen to us. No, we don’t know nothing, do we? No. Oh, yeah. Look. Might walk around and across here. We’re going to go across tracks. We’re going to run out. Yeah. Ah, it’s a short train. We have to walk down. Oh, never mind. So, we’re on the last leg of the journey and um we’re on the RB 58. RB 58, which is like regional train. um the train before someone very kindly showed us the app. It’s the MVV app. So, we managed to um download it. Download that and get the ticket. So, that’s all sorted. Both the tickets on the same app and it was it was it once we sused it cuz you can click on English. Yeah, it was um Yeah, took a little bit of time off or we’ll probably be there by the time I do it. But yeah, but anyway, we don’t Yeah, don’t want to risk getting a fine me. Yeah, we risked it that first little bit cuz we couldn’t get a ticket. But um that wasn’t our fault in our defense. Yes. Ticket sea. Here we come. Yeah. In the country. In the country smoke. pass all up. It’s um from Munich out to here. It’s about an hour and a half today because of the uh Usually. Yes, usually can be just over an hour just depending on what train you get. Some journeys is 2 hours. Same depending what train and what bus connections. So, this ain’t this ain’t too bad. No, you’re in the country. Peaceful out there. It’s going to be great. Yeah, it’s very nice. Yeah. One good thing we will say is their trains have free internet and it’s quite good, isn’t it? Yeah.

So we got to climb this. But I think it’s this way. Yeah. I don’t think it’s going that way. No, I don’t think it’s going over there. It’s a beautiful start though by the lake, isn’t it? Oh, gorgeous. So come with us and we’ll take you there to the top of the mountain and row the other side and to the most beautiful views I think you’re going to see in a long, long time. Let’s go.

That looks like campsite. Yeah, there campers and that. Look, I can see a couple of little tents. Yeah. So um campsite yes something to bear in mind in the future bear in mind. Yeah probably this shows how cold it obviously gets here in the winter. Look at the amount of logs they got stacked up ready. And there’s not just that few logs at the front. Look there there there two at least two more there. Oh and it goes around the corner as well. I can see a massive stack with a tarp over it. Yeah. Yeah. Look. All that’s all stacked up. Look. It’d be nice coming here in winter, though. Oh, yeah. Look. Old 4×4. Be um actually I think it’d be nice coming here in winter, but you definitely want a place with a log burner. Yeah. This looks like a new estate, but they’ve still done it in um the traditional style, which is just lovely. Even these ones. Oh, yeah. Look, they go all the way around. Yeah. New housing estate. Clear that. Cool. Yeah, it is clear. I wonder what fish they got in there. Do you think be trout? Yeah, there’s no one fishing today. Hey, Gaz. Yeah, they got like a robot. Is it um mower? Mower? Look at that. I’ve seen the robot vacuums, but never a mower. Cool. That’s flash. But look at that place. That’s well nice. They’ve even got killer cows here. Look, killer cows. And if they move, if you listen, you can hear they’ve got cowbells. Cool. [Music] So you can hear them when they sneak up on you. Yeah. So we’ve already walked from the um bus station across and we’re here. Well, it looks like we’re finally going to get to the trail. I had to walk through the town to get to this too. Tegan tea jingle nure and whatever is that’s that mountain. Yeah. Wait. Oh. Well, this is where it starts climbing up. Starts getting steep cuz he’s going to check on the map. But we’ve seen a couple of signs. Yellow signs. Yeah. Onwards and upwards. Yeah. Just keep pumping. Always good to look behind as well. Look at that. So, our first experience using all trails. It’s crap. Yeah. It’s taken us along the road which is down there. But we see the sign to come up on the trail. Yeah. But and we spoke to a couple of locals and they said there’s some signs up there. Yeah. This is Gundam one. This taste to Gundam one. So, we should go on the road. You want to do the trail. That’s right. That’s the idea of all trails. Yeah, exactly. Not the road. It’s not called all roads, is it? So, we’ll see. See if it corrects itself. [Applause] Well, they said it was steep and I think they’re right. Is a bit steep. Come on, Nice. Yeah. Isn’t it? Yeah. Building up the heat. When you do stop, there’s that nice cool breeze. Cools down quick, doesn’t it? There’s the old armpits out. And you need to, didn’t you? Yeah. Sweating like a good, don’t you?

He’s putting on his snazzy new hiking jacket. Sure. That we bought in um Australia. I didn’t see one at a light. So, I’m going go look for a new one. But cool. Yeah, that looks really nice. Look at that. And if you get lost, I don’t think they’re going to find you in that. Ah. Well, that’s a way of thinking. See? Yeah. If we’re somewhere and we need to lay on the floor and wave it, someone’s going to see a mile away, a never going to miss me, are they? I think they’ll see you back in Australia. I know. Can you see me? No. Can you see me on the telly? Where’s Where’s GZ? If you’re on the telly and you’re having a cold beer or glass of wine or a cup of tea, give us a wave. Yeah. And I’ll look up and go, “Hello.” And do you want a uh a roll? Yeah. Yeah. Oh, look at them. Hey, need your spare hands. Look. I have one. Oh, guess he’s running out of hands. Oh, no. He’s all right. He’s got a big gob. So, um, been a really nice walk. Yeah, it was steep. Was a little bit hard in the cast, but recovery. I feel like we’re not too bad. Oh, we’re at top now, haven’t we? The ridge line. We might have to go a little bit more. I think we’re going to go down. I don’t know. Looks like it. Let’s see. There should be a look out there, but we’re stopping in the trees here cuz we got rain. But it’s going to clear in a minute. Look. Little sprite over there. So get fantastic view, shouldn’t we? Well, we replenish. Put one of these inside us. Yeah, cuz we need fruit for breakfast. Fruit and yogurt. So, we need something to keep us going. Well, it was worth stopping cuz look, the sky has cleared and the sun is out. And Gary looks like he’s in an advert for um for what? Hely Hansen. Hyans Hilly Hansen advert. Well, I put it on cuz it did come over really dark and I thought it might chuck it down. Might chuck it down, didn’t it? No, but it was only a shower, was it? Oh, well. No, we did the white thing though. Now it’s gorgeous. Don’t think this bus is coming. Do you? Uh, no. I don’t think so. Do you? No, you just little shelter. Yeah. Through the forest. Little nieces on uh on point. You on point? Yep. On expedition. Come on then. Keep going. Little niece. We’ll find this another lookout on we. Yes. Well, now the sky’s cleared. It should be really nice, shouldn’t it? It should be. Oh, look. Another bench. Gaz Gaza too. Gaza too. I could do have a good sit down. Well, we’ve come to the other lookout and guess what? There is a pub slash cafe. I don’t know if it’s open. Do you? No, it I guess mainly weekends they probably open. There’s obviously live here and then you can uh look at the odd walker that come through. View. Oh wow. Look at that of the lake. Cool. Got a view and a half, haven’t they? Wow. Look at that. That’s nice. around there. But this is this is the view. Oh, it’s beautiful. Look at that. Absolutely stunning. This is beautiful, isn’t it? Yeah. So, we start the descent. Now, of course, steep coming up, steep going down. That’s right. This where it’s hardening your old knees. Yeah. That’s a good night. Hey Gaz. Yeah. Keep a lookout for a flat spot for when we come through with the cruiser. Yeah, I’ve been looking out but I can’t see any yet. Free camp. I’m always on the lookout. Always on the lookout. You are just on spit again. Oh no. It’s not too bad under in here though. Um, I don’t know if you can see, but this is really, really steep going down. Oh, yeah. It’s a little hit. It’s a bit of a killer, isn’t it? Goes on the old knees. A bit. Yeah. Knees. Well, we started walking down for the rainforest and it’s spitting very slightly and it was a little bit of a breeze. We thought got a bit nippy. It’s got a bit cold. So, we got our jumpers on. Yeah. Uh, keep it nice and snug. That’s why we bought them. That’s it. Feel better now. Yeah, that feels better. She feels better now. So, we keep going now. Yeah. Huh? But who was first to get their jumper out? You. Oh, I got beat. Well, I beat it by a millisecond. You Soon as I said about getting my jump out, you went, “Yeah, I think I’ll get mine out.” So, you was already thinking that way anyway, weren’t you? Nah. Yeah, he was. Nah, you can do this. liar coming down. So it’s not so steep. Yeah, it’s not so bad. Then is it end up walking about 50k? More than you need to steep, isn’t it? Yeah. There is other tracks through the forest, but they seem to be going to the other part of the lake, don’t they? So yeah. Yeah. We thought we’d go down this way, which is obviously the road. Um you think it’s a road? Oh, it is. It’s a gravel road to feed that bar at the top. What do you mean the beer gets up there? Yeah. True. It’s true. Is it? Carry it up. Yeah. On your back. Anybody who walks out’s got to carry a case of beer. Yeah. Imagine it. You have arms like Popeye, wouldn’t you? Yeah. [Music] Lives in a caravan. Cuz I eat my spinny. [Music] [Applause] Well, there’s your flat bit for camping, Gaz. And look, it’s a gravel pit. Hey, that’s been so hard on the calves. Oh, to get to Oh, get to a flat bit. Oh. Oh, it’s lovely. That is like heaven. Yeah, it’s not quite flat. Get down here. Flat. Oh, that’s better. Lovely views coming down. We’re just saying these people don’t just live here. We’ve got Oh, look at that. Wonderful. So, we’re back at our place and then I’ll let it take us. Nice. 3 hours and 50 minutes with a little tea break. We only stopped for a quick roll. Not for long. Not for long. But um everything was shut for now though. So Gary mentioned something about he wants to go to the bakers. Well, we got to go and get some tea bags. Got to get some milk. There’s a baker’s right there, so we might as just grab a little lattice. So, do you reckon we deserve a little treat? Deserve. Should buy the old shop. What’s wrong with you? Come, let’s go. [Music] Well, this is what we bought from the bakery. There was two, but Gary couldn’t wait. yetis. No. And now he’s on the chocolate biscuits. I got his chocolate biscuit bar thing. Nusber kirkus. Oh, sport ner. Yeah. I don’t I don’t know. How you say? You’re not really sure. I’m fluent. I’m I’m sure it’d be nice. You know, Italian, German. I know. biscuit. I’ll try a little bit of that before I eat my lettuce. That’s Mhm. This is some sort of jam. Jam. A bite into it. Bit of ice on the outside. I don’t know if it’s really a jam. Like a fruit fruit paste. I don’t know what you’d call it. Anyway, look. Have a look. Nice. Nice. Anyway, you like fatty? Yeah. Quite happy there. Yeah, I’m loving it. Putting some energy back. Yeah, I see that walk. Oh, I see how come down here was steep when it Yeah, that was very very hard on the old thighs. Gary found it hard on knees or hips? Um, no. Calves. Hard in your calves. Good morning. Calves. I found it hard just in the front of me thighs. But right. So if you have the tops of my thighs, I have your calves. All right. Yeah. Right. We’ll swap over. Yeah. Guess where we are. No, we’re not in a beer garden. We’re in air garden. We’re in our little garden. I know. And what we’re doing right, she’s obviously got a glass of water, cold beer. Just mulling over life really, isn’t we? Yeah. It’s quite good, isn’t it? Really? It’s lovely. It’s good to see you have a glass of wine and cold beer. You know why? Cuz you can just talk, chill, kind of guard. You talk rubbish really. Absolutely. I mean, you’re just sort of dribbling on to be honest. But um I’m sort of sense. Gabby Ty’s going to get sponsorship from Beex beer. So uh if you’re watching, just sponsor me. It’ll be fine. I’m quite happy with that. But no, we’ve been mulling over all sorts of stuff, haven’t we? About all these trips we want to go on, all these place we want to visit. Talking about um getting a lift off, getting a troopy, getting a 4×4 camper van. Oh, we got all these ideas. We’re going round and round in circles to meet and we still don’t know what we’re going to do. Throttle. But anyway, it’s still good fun though. It is good fun. It’s good fun talking about it. And it’s good thing about good fun about um think about the place you’re going to go and all the things you’re going to do. Isn’t it? That’s why we come away on this trip just to have a brever, think about things. Oh yeah, cuz we was getting a little bit confused and we’re like we need a break. Got a little bit stressed. Oh, you don’t believe it. I very rarely get stressed. I can’t be asked. But um I very get No, I don’t. Um, yeah. So, it’s nice to come away, have a good think, take a little step back for 5 minutes, think about it, and then we go again. Fall into the German way of life, which is fantastic. What? G up late and doing bugger all day. They love their food, which we love food. Yeah. They love their drink, which we love drink. We love drink. They love their They love their hiking, actually. Yeah, we love their hiking, which we love. They love cycling as well. We love Yeah, we like cycling. Yeah, we do like a little bikes, isn’t we? So, anyone out there who wants a couple of bikes? Um, yeah. So, we’re actually quite enjoying Germany. It’s very nice. Very, very peaceful. Very nice indeed. Oh, very friendly. People are lovely, isn’t it? Just lovely. There’s some really nice people trying to give us a hand with things, isn’t it? All very accommodating. Several people have asked us for um directions and we’re like, we don’t know where we’re going. We can’t speak German. And then when we tell him we’re like English, they’re like, “Oh, no. Can’t really speak.” It’s your hat. They obviously think he’s European cuz he’s got Valentina Rossy hat on. I don’t know. I reckon. But then twice they’ve approached me. Once they’ve approached you, so but how they’ve approached you and expect you know cuz I mean you don’t even know.

WHAT’S THE BEST PLACE TO VISIT IN EUROPE? We think we’ve found the best place to visit in Europe in summer, The Bavarian Alps in Germany, less crowded than the cities, more picturesque and amazing hikes (Germany’s BEST KEPT SECRET) Tegernsee is absolutely stunning and should be a BUCKET LIST DESTINATION on your list on your EUROPE TRIP. We travel by train from Munich to Tegernsee in The Bavarian Alps, only approx 1hr 30mins, so close to Munich but feels like it’s a world away. We show HOW TO TRAVEL FROM MUNICH TO BAVARIAN ALPS BY TRAIN.

Hi guys, take me into the bakery. I want to check out for a vanilla slice. Cheers, Eric Bain
Good to see you putting on your shells and hitting the frog and toad. 🙏👍🏻🦘
Taormina Sicily ancient greek colony under Mount Etna, Jungfraujoch Switzerland, the corkscrew railway to the glazier is unbelevable
YES we can see you Gary all the way over to Australia with that Orange Hiking Jacket Gary. Yes that was a beautiful place to visit "Tegernsee" and i loved all the hiking you two did with the mountain views , were outstanding and memorable, thank you for taking us to these places.
I guess the siren, you heard, was a test alarm for the voluntary fire brigade, which is around 11 o'clock every last saturday in the month, otherwise it was a real alarm.
And by the way, I hope you tested "Tegernseer Helles" (beer), too. It's one of the best (lager) beers in Germany, definitely better than Beck's. 🙂
