About Rottach-Egern

Rottach-Egern on the southern shore of Lake Tegernsee is the most fashionable place in the Tegernsee Valley and a meeting point for Munich's high society. The elegant mountain village combines Bavarian tradition with luxury hotels and gourmet temples. The Wallbergbahn opens up a hiking paradise with grand views of Lake Tegernsee, and the lakeside promenade invites you to stroll. Despite the upscale atmosphere, Rottach-Egern retains its authentic charm with traditional costume shops and rustic alpine huts.
