Sports and leisure activities - Bavaria in 2025

Practical information : Move & Laze around Bavaria

Budget & Tips

Bavaria has a wealth of natural areas for outdoor sports: hiking, biking and more. No ticket booths at the entrance and no opening hours: nature at your fingertips. The Alps, the Pre-Alps, Franconian Switzerland and other beautiful regions are ideal for this. On the Austrian border, winter sports enthusiasts will find ski slopes and numerous peaks to climb. Hiking is popular with young and old alike.

Admission to a municipal swimming pool generally costs around €5. This is also the price you have to pay for some beaches. On the shores of certain lakes, you'll find beaches with services worthy of a municipal pool: supervised swimming, cabins, restaurants, deckchairs, etc.

Prices for spas and saunas vary widely, depending on their standard and the amount of time you spend there. On average, you'll pay around €20 for two hours and between €30 and €45 for a day pass.

For ski enthusiasts: the average daily lift pass is €30.

What's very local

Home of the 1972 Olympic Games, Munich is a sporting city par excellence. There are many parks and green spaces where Munichers love to jog: the two most beautiful settings for a jog are the banks of the Isar and the paths of the charming English Garden. On sunny days, many Munichers leave the city for one of the lakes to the south of the metropolis, where they can cool off, swim, sunbathe and enjoy all kinds of water sports.

When hiking, it's customary to say hello to each other as you pass people on the way: a little "Servus" or "Grüß Gott" accompanies an exchange of smiles.

As for relaxation, there are several spa towns in Bavaria offering large aquatic complexes that are just as suitable for children who like to move around in the water as they are for adults who enjoy moments of relaxation in the jacuzzi or sauna. The word "Therme" in German most often refers to a modern all-public complex.

The sauna culture in Germany is also naturist.

Main events

The Munich Marathon takes place every year towards the end of the famous Oktoberfest, on the second Sunday of the month.
