The castle location is so beautiful. It is a treat for the sight just to hike towards the castle that is surrounded by bavarian alps. The guided tour, on the other hand is rather short (only 30min). The rooms are accessible only by lots of stairs and no photography is allowed. Only 14 castle rooms were furnished. Furthermore during our visit the cafe was also closed. This was a bummer since the ticket is so expensive for 23euros per person. Furthermore even though young kids are allowed inside the castle for free they need their own ticket and it can't be booked online. The ticket we got got our toddler from the information booth did not have a scan code and my daughter could not get inside so i had to run to fund security to let her inside. The security guide solved the issue quickly though. The point is that the ticket handling system must be more organized and improved upon. On the other hand, the cave room, singers room and the balcony were breath taking so the hassle was kind of worth it. The ticket price should be reduced though. I would say overall it was a very pleasant experience.

A real-life Disney castle — but truly so much more than that! ✨ I still couldn’t get enough of this place. Every corner feels like stepping into a fairytale. The guided tour is a must — make sure to book it early, as tickets sell out fast. No photos are allowed inside, but it’s absolutely worth it. Each room reflects incredible richness, elegance, and the artistic soul of King Ludwig II — his passion for theatre, music, and beauty shines through every detail. It’s about a 20-minute walk uphill from the ticket area, but they also offer bus services (check the timings!) and horse-drawn carriage rides for a more scenic way up. The path is a bit steep, but once you reach the top, the view and the castle itself make every step worth it. King Ludwig II was truly a dreamer — and walking through his creation feels like walking inside his imagination. Go see it — it’s magical, surreal, and simply unforgettable. 🌄💙

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️✨ 4.5-Star Review – Neuschwanstein Castle Parking at Platz 4 is very spacious and costs €12 for 6 hours, conveniently located right next to where you catch the bus up to the castle. The bus fare is €5 per adult round trip, and it’s a smooth ride with beautiful scenery along the way. At the top, the area is clear and open, perfect for walking or biking with stunning views all around. The trails are beautiful, offering several photo spots and breathtaking panoramas of the castle and the valley below. There’s also a small snack and souvenir shop at the top with plenty of space and clean bathrooms, making it an easy and comfortable stop before or after exploring. Overall, Neuschwanstein Castle is a magical experience — well worth the visit and the walk. The scenery alone makes it unforgettable!

Absolutely stunning castle that lives up to all the hype! The fairy-tale architecture is breathtaking, and the location in the Bavarian Alps provides incredible views. The interior tour was fascinating and gave great insight into King Ludwig II's vision. The walk up to the castle is a bit steep, but totally worth it. A must-see if you're in Bavaria!

We only saw the castle from outside. It was breathtaking 😍 I have never seen such a beautiful castle before in europe, it's just unique. Autumn vibe made it even more beautiful. You can reach the castle with bus from parking 4. It cost only 5 euro per person. You can even walk up to the castle take aprox. 30-40 mins. Walk down hill took us 20 min.

Wonderful and magic place. A must to see, when in this region. No problems with parking, can tak bus from it, to the castle. It's nice, 20 minute walk down. Well-organized sightseeing, but you need to be super punctual. I was with my 70 yo parents and the didn't have any problems walking around, some paths are steep though. The castlebis simply stunning, do not miss the bridge next to it. Can't take photos inside. Have some well made souvenirs inside (3 shops on your way to the exit).

Absolutely breathtaking and immersive. The hike up is beautiful and you can take your time just enjoying the scenery. Plenty of photo opportunities outside of the castle, but no pictures inside until you get to the cafe.

Very Nice trip. Did ascend and walk down. Not to much km to walk on the top, but the walk down it self is really nice and special with the nice views on the disney castle itself. It was actually my favored walking trip I ever did. Really recommend this commercial trip above other Mountains.

A fun cable car up to the top with about 30 others. The process is smooth, from purchasing the ticket to boarding and disembarking. The employees are jovial, making the whole experience a joy. We hiked around the top section of the mountain and ate lunch before heading down on the Bahn again. The views of two castles are great from the Bahn: Hohenschwangau and especially the Neuschwanstein as it’s closer. Go early as it gets very busy!

Fabulous way to spend the day! Taking the cable car up was smooth and easy (even with little kids in tow) There are some restaurants at the top with soup , beer and apple danish. The views are spectacular. And there are tons of trails back into the mountains for hiking. We also went on the toboggan slide (at the base- by the parking lot) My kids LOVED it. And the a lovely playground. Highly recommend visiting.

Breathtaking. Caught the bus from neuschwanstein castle. While the castle was rammed with people, we had the cable car to ourselves and also pretty much the whole mountain. We had the luck of a snowy winter wonderland. This was an awesome experience and totally took our breath away. If you're visiting the castle, you have to get the cable car up to the top of the mountain.

Absolute blast for the kids. Must have gone on 20plus times. Nice little food outlet where you can get a beer and some food

A beautiful way to the top of the mountain. Our kids loved it.

Stunning views and well worth the round trip on the cable car. Parking requires euro coins but everything else takes credit cards. The hiking looked wonderful if that’s your thing.

Definitely a must see castle. The grounds and the views are amazing. Unfortunately you cannot take photos of the interior. But nonetheless the interior doesn't disappoint either. I recommend that you get your ticket and tour time set up online. It definitely makes things easier. There are a few restaurants around the castle that have great food. Plus souvenir shoppes too.

Just a short 30-minute walk from the world-famous Neuschwanstein lies Schloss Hohenschwangau, and we can genuinely recommend adding it to your visit. While Neuschwanstein often gets most of the attention, Hohenschwangau has a charm and authenticity all of its own. Set against rolling hills, peaceful forests, and a beautiful lake, the castle feels more intimate and lived-in, offering a fascinating contrast to King Ludwig II’s fairytale creation. Tickets can be bought in advance—something we recommend, especially during busier months—and guided tours are offered in several languages. The tour provides wonderful insight into the history of the Bavarian royal family and the important role this castle played in Ludwig’s childhood. Many rooms remain furnished just as they were, which makes the visit feel historically rich and surprisingly personal. Even if you decide not to join a tour, the area around Schloss Hohenschwangau is perfect for a leisurely stroll. The paths are easy to navigate, and the views of the lake and surrounding mountains are incredibly beautiful. It’s a calm and charming place to unwind, especially after the more intense and crowded experience of Neuschwanstein. Overall, we found Schloss Hohenschwangau to be a beautiful and worthwhile addition to the day—less crowded, full of history, and surrounded by stunning scenery. If you’re already in the area, it’s absolutely worth visiting both castles to get the full experience of this remarkable region.

Nice hike up, but not too difficult. The audio guide was really informative and the castle was beautiful. Such a great place to visit!

I visited a lot of Ludwig’s castles and this one isn’t the most spectacular per se but it is a must see specially if you’re interested in his history. This is where he grew up and where his parents lived. The castle has a lot of history that you can learn during your visit. The visit is made with a guide but you have an audio guide in your own language during the tour. It is activated in each room by the guide and lasts a few minutes. Our tour guide was young lady with dark hair. I don’t remember her name but she was one of the best guides I’ve encountered in a museum. She was lovely, smiling, added additional informations during our visit and was gentle. We had a great time visiting the castle thanks to her. You can also visit the gardens for free if you want but you have to book a ticket to see the inside. Also up here you get a nice view over the Neuschwanstein.

Overall, visiting Hohenschwangau Castle is one of the must do things for any tourist in the area. Personally my visit was both meaningful and enjoyable. The scenery was beautiful, the history fascinating and the atmosphere peaceful. It offered a valuable look into the roots of Ludwig II’s life and imagination, making it a visit worth remembering. On a side note, it’s recommended to book in advance, park your car in parking number 4 and keep in mind that only guided tours are offered inside as well as that picture and videos aren’t allowed.

Even tough it's not probably as nice as Neuschwanstein I really enjoyed being inside and especially a look through the window at the end of the tour. Around the castle there are food stands where you can enjoy a hot chilly and some sausage with drinks.

Worth visiting after checking out Nauschwanstein! While not as ornate and opulent, there was certainly a lot of time spent in its design and a ton of history in its use and purpose. The English tour was very insightful and informative! Get there ahead of time for your tour - just be ready to sit in the sun for a while if you're too early!

A breathtaking view, you will walk over an old wooden bridge, very high and the floor looks unstable, you have to take care anyway, a little crowded and you have choose the right moment to take a photo with the castle. The view is so amazing that it looks unreal.

After visiting Schloss Neuschwanstein, we continued our walk to the famous Marienbrücke, a viewpoint that absolutely lives up to its reputation. The bridge is about a 15-minute walk from the castle, and although the path can be a bit steep and uneven in places, the payoff at the end is nothing short of breathtaking. As soon as you step onto the bridge, the view opens up dramatically: Neuschwanstein perched on its rugged cliff, framed by forested hills and soaring Alpine peaks. From this angle, the castle looks even more magical than up close—almost like it’s floating above the landscape. The drop beneath the bridge is impressive and might feel a bit dizzying if you’re afraid of heights, but it’s completely safe and well maintained. Depending on the time of day, it can get quite busy, so we’d recommend patience if you want the perfect photo. People naturally linger because the scenery is so captivating. The sound of the waterfall below, the fresh mountain air, and the sweeping panorama make it a place where you can easily spend more time than planned. It’s one of those rare spots where you truly understand why King Ludwig chose this location for his dream castle. If you’re visiting Neuschwanstein, make sure not to skip Marienbrücke. It’s the viewpoint that gives you the iconic picture—one that captures the full grandeur of the castle and the surrounding landscape. The short walk is entirely worth the effort for one of the most spectacular views in the region.

Mary's bridge.....what can you say but iconic, bavarian, crowded, tight, beautiful, one way on and one way off? Worth the effort it takes to get there. Sort of a let down when you see the Queue after you walk there. Part of the entire experience. Do it!

The hike up to the Marienbrücke (Queen Mary's Bridge) is an absolute must-do for anyone visiting Neuschwanstein Castle. This cantilevered bridge, suspended dramatically over the Pöllat Gorge, offers the one truly iconic, postcard-perfect view of the castle. The sight is genuinely breathtaking: Neuschwanstein is framed perfectly by the towering forested mountains, looking like an improbable fairytale creation carved into the cliffside. The sheer height of the gorge below adds a visceral thrill to the visual splendor. ​However, be prepared for company. The day I visited, the bridge was incredibly crowded. It requires patience and cooperation to navigate the narrow structure and secure a spot for a decent photograph, especially when trying to move past groups. ​Adding to the intensity is the bridge itself. While the main metal structure appears strong and stable, giving confidence in its engineering, the experience is slightly unnerving due to the flooring. The wooden planks connecting the spans make a persistent squeaking noise with every footstep and shift in the crowd's weight. This constant creaking sound, combined with the height, made the experience feel a little uncomfortable and a bit scary. ​In summary, the view of Neuschwanstein from the Marienbrücke is worth every crowded, squeaky step. It’s a sensory experience where awe battles nervousness, leaving you with a lasting, slightly thrilling memory.

View from Marienbrücke is spectacular. Castle looks beautiful from this angle. I would recommend visiting in sunny day and if possible during fall season. Kindly check opening hours before visiting

Be sure to take the short but steep walk to the bridge after seeing Neuschwanstein Castle. The views from this bridge are unbelievable. 360° views. Waterfalls, river, the castle and the village. There will most likely be a short wait as the bridge only holds so many people. If you walk all the way to the end of the bridge you can continue to hike up the mountain. I didn't but I would have liked to if we had more time.

Lovely view but be prepared for masses of people taking pictures (even without tourist season) . If you are patient enough there is always oportunity take a nice photo. Enjoy!

Good things: -Good quality food -good not too big portions -beautiful interiors and wonderful facade of the building, typical Bavarian style -authentic clothing worn by the waiters -very cosy -fair price -perfect location at the center of the small town -Has a restaurant and a hotel, perfect stay for the traveller -Menus in several languages So so things: -prices a bit over the average -couldn't see an outside seating, pity since in the summer people love sitting outside and enjoying the fresh air -it felt a bit like this place is the touristic place everyone goes to. Conclusion: I recommend it for sure, you'll love it. We didn't eat much but we ended paying an easy 50 euros. If you're okay with that, go and relax in this beautiful place.

Very traditional Bavarian eatery. The interior is amazing, especially the painted low ceilings. There are three big rooms and plenty of tables so when you are lucky, you can have a choice of where to sit, depending on occasion. The atmosphere is homely and friendly. Waitresses are dressed in traditional outfits. The food is reasonably priced and portions are big. As you can expect the menu is full of traditional dishes so unfortunately for vegans there is only a few options available, from separate asparagus menu or you can choose side salads. Do make sure you tell them you are a vegan or vegetarian as they use a lot of creams in salads and soups are cooked on beef stock. Their mixed salad is very good, big portion and interesting selection of veggies, not just leafy greens. My vegan dish is pictured below - It was delicious and nicely served.

Disliked being charged over 3 euros for a glass of tap water! Food was not amazing and price was slightly over average. The Swiss people beside us weren't impressed with their roast beef. I had the herring, which was really some fish with a lot of mayonnaise. My husband has the turkey which he liked. Service was poor and didn't speak good English. Hotel itself is nice but go elsewhere for dinner!

I only used the restaurant during a travel break. The staff this is a tragedy in this place and the food too. Entering the premises, seeing the menu, I asked if I could take it right to the table. Was "yes". In a moment, another waiter came to the ouer table and told me that this place is not a self-service. We ordered a dish that was over salted. When I said that I want to pay with the card there was dissatisfaction. I paid, but then I had to look for a waiter to get the bill. When I found the waiter he just sipped beer in the back room. Generally, I do not recommend this place if someone wants to make a quiet trip without a nerve.

One of the waiters was so rude. He would not let my wife to change her order right after he ordered for every one at our table. He did not even leave our table yet! He replied "NO, you can't change your order. I have sent it in". At the end of our meal, he would not bring us our check but ask my friend's wife to follow him to the front to pay. Yes, he did bring checks to other tables. We travel the world and are very well behaved. So disappointed!

Is it the best definitely not, is it the worst? The food was meh and nothing to write home about. Found the service probably the slowest in Bavaria. The roast beef was more like a pot roast and served with what tasted likey gravy from a can. For the price expected more.

Food tasted nice, and the atmosphere was pretty. The service was lacking. They refused to let us get food "to go" for a family member who was sick in the hotel, forcing us to get McDonald's for them instead. We felt like we were bothering them the whole time there.

This place was amazing! Bring your swimsuit, or buy one there. Whatever you need to do, but Get There! Pools are fabulous, sauna is naked, so either skip or man up. Massages, swim up bar, bars, ice cream, etc. GO!

really liked it. I have something to compare it to. The view of Neuschwanstein Castle is gorgeous. The pools have different salt percentages, you need to book them for 4 hours. I didn't go to the sauna because I already know everything there 🤽‍♂️We'll definitely be back. The bar has excellent cocktails.

Very comfortable and completely diverse areas, a unique experience from the salt pool to the natron pools and different saunas, I loved the relaxing cave full with amethyst and quartz, the views to the castle are definitely a top,

Lovely thermal spa with amazing views. Plenty to do, lots of little hot pools and also outdoor pools. They also have a pool bar and lovely traditional restaurant inside. We had very relaxing time.

Thermas with beautiful views of the mountains, Neue Schwanstein castle. Nice outdoor and indoor pools. Not so crowded. Cool bar inside the indoor pool. Chilled vibes. We didn’t visit the sauna cause we had little time. We considered staying longer and change the travel plans just to stay a few more hours.

It is rare for me to give a 5 star rating. Good things: -Amazing thermal spa treatments, there is a daily list of therapies to follow every half hour. They are all included in the initial fee for getting in (25 euro for 4 hours, slightly more for the full day). We thought 4 hours would be too much however it turned out time flew quicker than expected and would have been better taking the daily ticket instead -all therapies are different and offer their own experience, utilizing different methods and scents. All you have to do is follow the schedule to the dedicated room. There are several areas to the spa, it'll take you a long time to discover and understand it all (that's why it's much better to get a daily ticket) -There is a restaurant on the inside -a bar to drink from inside the pool (alcoholic and non) on stools inside the water -A cafeteria with a large variety of cakes to choose from -All decorations within the spa are incredible, starting from some of the columns covered with crystals, others made of pink, white marble. Chandeliers of fine glass work with beautiful blue colored gems, fantastic work on the staircase leading to the topper floors made of thick veiny marble. Beautiful paintings around, I was studying some for sometime. Innovative ideas for therapies in the saunas, using crystals of eucalyptus and menthol directly on the hot stones, freeing up your upper respiratory system. Salt scrubs and mud baths. Pools are available outside too and they are warm so you can relax and bathe even during the winter while snow is falling atop your head. All sauna rooms and Turkish baths are kept tidy, sanitized and clean, with beautiful decorations on the inside (they are named after the king Ludwig II and other important personalities of the time, so you'll find portraits of Cavaliers and coat of arms). -Customer service is excellent, smiling at all times and dressed impeccably -Such views from every spot that will take your breath away, there is a "panorama sauna" that offers enough space for up to 30 people if not more and a panorama over the Alps and the Neuschwanstein castle. -On the upper level you'll find another restaurant and on the terrace you'll find seating within glass vaults to enjoy the view even during super cold periods (and you're naked in there so how awesome is that?) Bad and So so things: -Upper levels are dedicated to naked people, for the ones that have problems with that and have a different mentality you'll be losing around 70% worth of your ticket fee. The best is located at the top of the complex so overcome your fears and just go. -DO CARRY YOUR TOWEL if you don't have one you'll have to borrow one from the spa and it's 3 euros per towel and a deposit of 10 euros per towel. Plan ahead of time to avoid this. -It's a very family oriented place so you'll find many kids playing around at the first level mainly. This might be annoying at some times for someone. Conclusion: This place is fantastic. I'd recommend it over and over again. The price per day is a bargain and you'll benefit a rejuvenation with a great piece of mind.

Probably the best thermal bad I have visited. For sure the best I know in Germany. Multiple saunas with different temperatures and the whole show with the pouring. The aroma sauna was wonderful. Coffee shops, restaurants, salty and regular pools (not for swimming), whirlpools and more. Incredible views and facilities. Probably even better in Sommer but it was great!

Restaurant Ludwigs offers a whimsical dining experience with its over-the-top swan-themed seating and fairy-tale décor, but the real star is the food. Rooted in traditional German cuisine, the menu features standout dishes like the rich, tender Sauerbraten served with red cabbage and dumplings, comfort food done right. Paired with a refreshing Paulaner and finished off with warm apple strudel and vanilla sauce, it’s a full Bavarian experience in the heart of the old town. Great for a memorable meal that feels both classic and playful.

I learned about Restaurant Ludwigs from Google review and Yelp. When I saw they have apple strudel with vanilla sauce, I convinced my husband we should go. It was kind of a warm day so we opted to sit inside. We were famished after a whole day of castle hopping (we visited Neuschwanstein Castle and Hohenschwangau Castle) so we were ready to eat. I’ve never had cordon bleu made with pork before and I must say it’s the best one I’ve had. My husband ordered vegan ravioli which he also enjoyed. For dessert, we each got an apfelstrudel mit Vanillesoße. It was alright - definitely not comparable to Vienna’s. Our waiter (we didn’t get his name but I think he manages the place) was awesome. He made us comfortable and checked in just like someone would when someone’s visiting his house. We truly appreciated his genuine hospitality. Our bill was about €60 which was certainly not bad for German standards.

Delicious food all around. We had a mix of things all across the menu and every one of them was very tasty. The service was great, including a fun sense of humor. Highly recommended for great decor some tasty German food.

Stopped by for lunch during our day trip. Really enjoyed the wiener schnitzel and apple strudel! The wiener schnitzel was well-seasoned and crispy. Could not stop eating the vanilla sauce on the apple strudel. Our server was also very friendly and humorous.

Avoid the meat platter!! We ordered the meat platter and the pork knuckle was an incredibly tiny portion and extremely dry compared to the many other ones we’ve had on our trip so far. It is on the right hand side of the picture. When we brought this to the attention of the manager he didn’t apologize but said this is exactly how the dish is supposed to be cooked. We said we’ve had many of these before and it’s never been impossible to cut with dry meat in the middle. He claimed we had eaten the whole thing so he couldn’t do anything about the bill and even tried to cut it up further to show there was more meat - however, I had 1 bite and there was nothing else edible. The manager never apologized and said he’s been working in the restaurant for years and that’s how it’s always been. Head to any restaurant in Munich for way better pork knuckle.

Ludwig’s in Füssen is an absolute gem! The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, with the perfect mix of traditional Bavarian charm and a lively energy. I ordered the lemon beer and a refreshing lemonade—both were fantastic and hit the spot after a day of exploring. We also had delish traditional German food. The service was friendly and attentive without ever feeling rushed, and the food around us looked incredible. It’s the kind of place where you instantly feel at home while still soaking in the local culture. Highly recommend for anyone visiting Füssen—you won’t regret it!

Food is pretty good and the service was amazing! We ate there both of our nights in Füssen. I left a hair tie there (one of the thick expensive ones) and didn’t even realize. When I came back the next night to eat again, the server remembered me and still had it! Was very sweet! Love love loved the maultaschen! My favorite German food and they make it really good! Also get the Ludwigs Spritz! I also stayed at the hotel here 3 years ago and only good things as well!

a Museum of 2 floors following the story of King Max 2 and Ludwig 2 with highlights from their life achievements. a hall with golden collectibles is the main room, then a room with story of the bavarian kings, then you finish the round with the last bavarian prince and his impact on Munich and bavaria till the 50's. i took it as part of the combi ticket. visit duration 1.5 Hrs max.

It is what the name meant. I didn’t like it because the order of the pictures and stories in the audio guide wasn’t ordered properly according to date. You can see many times the next person is older than the person

The Museum of the Bavarian Kings (Museum der Bayerischen Könige) offers a well-curated, modern look into the legacy of the Wittelsbach dynasty, one of Europe’s oldest ruling families. Located on the shores of the Alpsee in Hohenschwangau, the museum traces the lineage from medieval dukes to King Ludwig II, with a strong focus on his life, myth, and the construction of Neuschwanstein. Interactive displays, personal artifacts, and multimedia installations bring the royal narrative to life without feeling overwhelming. The museum’s architecture blends historic and contemporary design; a worthwhile visit before or after exploring the nearby castles.

Beautiful Exterior, Disappointing Interior – Not Worth the €21 Ticket The castle’s exterior is absolutely breathtaking, offering stunning views that are worth billions. Ludwig II truly had a remarkable vision for architecture, creating something out of a fairy tale. However, the guided tour inside was quite underwhelming. The ticket price of €21 felt excessive for what was on display. It seems the owners are aware of this, as they strictly prohibit photography inside. In all honesty, if visitors saw what was inside beforehand, many might reconsider paying for the tour. Compared to Ludwig II’s incredible design sense, his parents’ interior décor choices were far less impressive. If you visit, I highly recommend enjoying the castle from the outside—it’s truly the highlight of the experience! “Bavaria is Germany’s treasure trove.”

The Museum of the Bavarian Kings is a beautifully presented look into Bavaria’s royal history. Located right by the lake in Hohenschwangau, the setting is stunning and adds to the experience. The exhibits are well organized and informative, offering an engaging story of the Wittelsbach family and their legacy, including King Ludwig II. The displays are modern and interactive, with detailed explanations in both German and English, making it easy to follow even if you’re not fluent in German. The only downside is that the museum is a bit smaller than expected, so you can walk through it fairly quickly. Still, the quality of the exhibits, the breathtaking views of the lake and Neuschwanstein Castle, and the calm atmosphere make it well worth a visit. It’s a great stop before or after exploring the castles, and a solid choice for anyone interested in Bavarian history.

Unless you want to see a dozen exhibits about the kingdom, waste of time

Very informative. Oddly there are no pictures allowed. Friendly staff. Nice little gift shop. Skip the castle tours and come here instead; all the same info without the hassle.

That was really tasty! The dessert was well decorated and the taste was just delicious! Also the waiters were really quick and polite even though the place was full. I rate it at 5/5

There’s a wide variety of ice cream and desserts to choose from. Delicious ice cream, great coffee. The staff are playful — a bit cheeky but funny. The atmosphere is really nice, with views of the city and people-watching. Perfect spot to sit back, enjoy the vibe, and take in the urban scenery.

I had a lovely experience at Eiscafe Hohes Schloss! Enjoyed a delicious cappuccino and an exceptional tiramisu. They offer a fantastic variety of desserts and ice cream. The cozy outdoor seating in the heart of town makes it the perfect spot to relax and enjoy the local vibe. Highly recommended!

A very nice place to be not only because they are serving their signature ice cream combinations, as well for their cheerful service always ready to assist and meet client expectations.

Cozy Italian store for sweets, desserts, juices and ice cream with nice seating area inside and outside. The menu has so many options and the service is really good and quick. The quality of food is really good. The most I like is the location in the heart of the area.

Pistachio spaghetti-eis is very good, nuts is fresh. The service is great and it’s fully occupied on the main road table so I have go to the backyard which also good for spring weather.

Great ice cream. We tried lots of tastes and all of them were good. They were so good that we went for another round right after the first. If you are in Fussen just try it.

Might have caught this place on a bad day. But the pesto was super bitter. The gnocchi was overcooked as was the tagliatele, and the all'amatriciana was a little thin, light on the guanciale, and had no peccorino but still bursting with smoky flavor so that was a win. Everywhere where there should have been basil, We seem to have arugula, which was pretty different, but no big deal (except the pesto, which they could have called out). They closed early for a private event and seemed pretty scattered. They were all very kind. But the atmosphere was a little intense. There was a cell phone ringing, pretty much the entire time, we were there. Unanswered. We werent allowed to sit outside due to an early closure, so that was a bummer, but understandable, they had a private event. It wasn't a particularly expensive meal, but too many things piled up to call it a good meal. I suspect maybe itnwas just bad timing and circumstance. Again, nice folks

Delicious food, beautiful view of Neuschwanstein Castle. The owner speaks Italian, German and English. He was so kind and patient. He has Gluten free options for those who are celiac. My husband said it was the best gluten free pizza crust he has ever had. It was so soft. My pizza was wonderful and he was kind enough to give me extra basil for my pizza. The cappuccino was amazing!

Beautiful Italian. Very delicious and timely service. The Cappuccino and Bruschetta were top notch h with loads of flavor. However, not on the menu they had a Gluten Free (Glutenfrie) crust that was so fluffy and delicious.

ONCE IN A LIFETIME! and that‘s Even too much… We had a Take-Away order placed directly after opening. Three of five pizzas were really disgusting, the tuna wasn‘t even eatable for cats and all toppings flushing down the surprisingly thin and crispy dough. But that didn‘t rescue my dish of rigatoni, that was clearly from the day before and tasted like old cooler.

Very cozy, authentic restaurant. Their kitchen stays open later than any other restaurant in Schwangau, which is very helpful if your plans get delayed like ours did. I had the tomato salad, which was delightful. I don't recall the name of my husband's pizza but he very much enjoyed it.

Great pizza, quick and friendly service. Side note: pizzas are not cut upon arrival to table. No big deal, just caught us off guard.

The best lasagne I’ve had in my life with a cosy lively atmosphere and such friendly owner and staff. Would highly recommend

The walk on the overhead bridge is easy and fun with family and kids. At end of the bridge you can get down and go near the river. The staff is very nice.

This was a remarkable playground circuit hike for kids unlike anything we Americans had ever seen! So cleverly designed, and more imaginative, in a love,y forest. , leading to the huge footbridge to Austria. The chute slide was incredible! My grandkids especially enjoyed pulling themselves across the creek on the barge. Recommend so highly! We walked from our hotel in Fuessen.

A great place to visit, especially if you have young children.

Pros: 1. The tree top bridge /walk way is accessible by strollers. The forest trail itself can be accessed by pram/stroller which is just amazing! The forest trail is free to visit. 2.Kids 4-10 years old will definitely enjoy the activities there at the forest trail. 3. There are free toilets. 4. There is free museum for kids where they get to know more about the forest. 5.Lots of play areas. Cons: 1. It is difficult to get mobile reception in the forest so going there is kind of risky with small kids if they get seriously injured and you can't call help. 2.On sunny days lots of people go to the forest area and you would have to stand in long lines for your kids to enjoy a popular activity. 3. The baumkronenweg is rather short but you have to pay 5euros/person which does not seem value for money.

Cute place for kids and nature lovers! Did the tree-too experience and loved going over the border from Germany to Austria up in the trees!

Not only for kids, also for the whole family.. Alway be one of our favorite spot..!

It's neat to walk amongst the treetops and you can see the Alps in the distance. The river Lech is mostly behind the trees. But just down the road is a great free stop to see the man-made waterfall.

Pretty little place to drop by if you’re in Füssen. It’s walkable from the town and the way is quite serene. We went during weekends so it had some empty parking stops.

Lovely waterfall and walk just outside the village. But be warned, the car park is only 300m away from the Austrian border so try not to miss it!

Beautiful place to visit. Water is a beautiful colour. Walked from here to Tirol where there is a cafe and a nature museum. Lovely spot, walkable from Füssen about 3/4 of a mile

Beautiful falls and a great hike. We found parking just off the road. We had no problem with finding parking. The bridge and trail were not crowded. However, it was a cool day with rain on and off. We only took the trail a short distance, however, had the weather been better we would have happily gone farther. Highly recommend seeing the falls!

Lechfall is a great little stop in Füssen, just a short walk from the old town. The turquoise water rushing through the gorge is really impressive, and the viewing platform gives a nice angle of the falls. Doesn’t take long to visit, but it’s definitely worth it if you’re nearby. Easy to find, free to see, and a perfect spot for photos.

Not crowded , Relaxing and must visit when it is sunny.

A incredible waterfall. It was built on 1837 to reduce the tornadoes that were created in the water.

Great Zoo, 15€ per adult is quite fair these days. Has lots of insects and animals to explore. Free toilet (which is clean), snack vending machine and coffee. Definitely worth exploring and visiting.

Very nice place and the terrariums and aquariums are clean and enough space for the reptiles. The costumer service very friendly. Kid friendly place too! Prices are ok.

I was very impressed by so many different kinds of animals! 😍 I can definitely recommend this place, here you can learn a lot and watch animals that you can hardly see in Europe. In addition, the team is very friendly, at the ticket station you will be met by a smiling man who will gladly sell you a ticket and show you the direction 😉

I was absolutely amazed by this incredible little place. Three rooms and yet four hours flew by without us noticing when we visited one Saturday in November. The quality of the enclosures puts most top- tier UK zoos to shame - large, clean and cleverly designed to give excellent views of the animals while giving places to hide and climb. No wonder the animals look so healthy and gorgeous. There's heaps of information here on nearly every species and further information you can scan with your phone (which is easier if your German isn't as terrible as mine). I was particularly impressed with the macaw jungle-gym, which is less of an enclosure and more of an assortment of ropes and stands in the middle of the second room on which the five parrots wander. Talk about close encounters! Just bring a pair of earplugs if you're noise-sensitive! This little gem was very easy to navigate, there was plenty of parking and it's wheelchair accessible. No café, but there are toilets and a snack machine. I imagine children would have an incredible time, but this is definitely a must-see if you're in the area and love reptiles, aquatic life and/or birds!

Parking lot at entrance, near river (just follow signs). Fun to see many new species - especially from Australia and SE Asia - including an iridescent amethystine python.

I have never seen so many active reptiles and so many different types! We saw so many animals happily moving around in their cages, which are beautifully designed. The smell isn't great, but that's what it is when you have an indoor space and you do get used to it. We stayed for hours seeing all the different displays. They even have large alligators and some mammals, such as meerkats. We enjoyed our visit very much and would highly suggest going.

Im not a big fan of zoo's. But this place created with love to animals and full of care of them. I recommend to visit this zoo if you want to discover new for you and spand nice time with your kids, friends or even for yourself. Thank you guys for you amazing work!

gothic medieval fortress served as seat for princes and now is a complex holding a Chapel, a museum of gothic medieval paintings, knight's hall and side chambers. entrance fee can be combined with the Rathaus museum. the interior fasade had some illusion paintings.

The historic area around Füssen is home to the impressive Hochschloss, also known as the Hohes Schloss, which towers above the charming town center and offers a remarkable glimpse into late Gothic architecture and Bavarian history. The castle complex originally dates back to Roman times, but the current form was built and extensively renovated between the 13th and 15th centuries, later serving as a summer residence for the prince bishops of Augsburg. One of the most striking features is the illusionistic architectural paintings in the inner courtyard, which still enchant visitors today with their artistry and detail. During our visit, we enjoyed a leisurely afternoon exploring not just the castle’s exterior and courtyards but also ventured up to the Hochreservoir, which provided a unique perspective over Füssen and the surrounding landscape. The castle complex houses the State Gallery with regional art from the 15th and 16th centuries, as well as the Städtische Gemäldegalerie showcasing 19th-century works. Wandering through the battlements and climbing the towers rewarded us with panoramic views, and the peaceful, historic ambiance made for a memorable experience. It’s a wonderful destination for anyone interested in architecture, history, or simply looking for a beautiful spot to spend a quiet afternoon. The mix of art galleries, historic towers, and stunning views creates an inspiring setting well worth the visit. The Hochschloss and the Hochreservoir together made for a great day—highly recommended for a cultural and scenic outing in Füssen.

Very nice place. Good views and small museum

Fine castle with beautiful outdoor murals. The village is also very cozy and we had free parking.

Old citadel situated above the city, very well preserved. Nice to visit any time of the day, but in the evening feels magical, especially during winter time.

Very nice castle to visit while in Fussen. It was built in iterations starting with an “illegal” fortification in the 12th C. It houses art installations and it is also interesting to climb to the battlements and up the tower. There are great views of the cit and surrounding area that shout it be missed. Next to this impressive castle is a beautiful park with benches and views of the river far below. 45 minutes is all you need in the castle before you continue your exploration of the city. Have Fun!

A calm and nice castle on the hill in the town. It is now an art museum. I could walk to the square of the castle but not inside of the building itself. It seems the castle is only open for a limited time in a day, so check the information before you visit the place. The walkway between the castle and the river and the one behind the castle were also great spots to take a rest.

Calm, peaceful and the view at its best. A picturesque place with the view of Neuschwanstein Castle amidst the Alps. ❤

Unusual place we end up..there was a wedding going on..beautiful area and you can see a famous castle from there

The most captivating aspect of this church is its picturesque setting. It stands alone in an expansive meadow, offering panoramic views of the surrounding landscape. The nearby Tegelberg mountain and the iconic Neuschwanstein Castle add to the dramatic scenery. In autumn, the fields around the church are often blanketed in mist, creating an ethereal and almost mystical ambiance. Notable trails in the area: 1. St. Coloman to Neuschwanstein Castle • Distance: 4 km one way • Difficulty: Easy to Moderate This trail takes you from the church through picturesque meadows and forests to the iconic castle. The trail is well-marked and offers breathtaking views of the castle as you approach. Along the way, you’ll also get to enjoy panoramic vistas of the surrounding Alps and Hohenschwangau Castle. 2. Schwansee Lake Loop • Distance: 6 km • Difficulty: Easy This loop trail circles around the tranquil Schwansee Lake, located near the church. The trail is mostly flat and passes through serene woodlands and open fields. It’s a great option for a leisurely walk to take in the views of the surrounding mountains. 3. Hohenschwangau to St. Coloman • Distance: 2.5 km one way • Difficulty: Easy This short, easy trail connects the village of Hohenschwangau with St. Coloman Church. It’s a gentle walk that passes through meadows and offers excellent views of Hohenschwangau Castle and the surrounding hills. It’s perfect for families or anyone looking for a relaxed stroll. 4. Schwangau Panoramic Trail • Distance: 7 km (4.3 miles) loop • Difficulty: Moderate This loop trail offers some of the best panoramic views of the Schwangau area, including the castles, lakes, and mountains. Starting near the church, the trail takes you through varied terrain, including fields, forests, and hilltops. The route is well-marked and provides several vantage points for photography and sightseeing.

St. Coloman is absolutely stunning! The church itself is beautiful, and the surrounding scenery is breathtaking, with the Alps providing a perfect backdrop. If you look off into the distance, you can even see the iconic Neuschwanstein Castle from afar – it’s a sight to behold! For those who don't have a car or own a vehicle, the public transport system is really convenient, making it easy to get to the area. Plus, if you’re in need of some refreshments, the nearby Rewe Supermarkt is a great stop. There's also a lovely café inside Rewe serving delicious cakes, coffee, and hot chocolate – perfect for a cozy break while enjoying the view. Highly recommend visiting!

A small beautiful church located in a very serence area with a view of the Neuschwanstein up in the mountains.

I saw this church from Neuschwanstein and went there after castle visiting. It was half hour way to walk. The view of the castle and mountains were incredible. But unfortunately church was closed;) It’s open only SUMMER!!!!!!! Didn’t know that🤦‍♂️ I got the reason come back here

Very nice church in a beautiful setting

What a great establishment. The owners here are so kind and treated us so well- friendly faces in a beautiful town. The pizza was delicious too!!

Excellent pizza!! The Best pizza of the world!! The owner verry friendly!

Pizza was pretty on par. Not American exactly but it's great. He put the right amount of sauce and cheese I enjoyed it. Spaghetti is on par as well. Made fresh and was good. As an American I recommend it.

My boyfriend and I went this place yesterday and it was amazing. We ordered Pizza #9 and #17 and they were so tasty! The staff were so nice and friendly and made sure we feel at home. The manager (I think) always made sure we are good and happy, it was also really nice to talk to him. I hope we'll get the chance to come again before we're leaving!

The pasta are very delicious. The owner is quiet busy when we went in. We waited for 30 minutes.You have to order two drink if you want to eat at store. We saw two Spanish order two pizza out because the owner asking two drink but they don't want to. 老闆很熱情，跟我們談了很久，所以再決定再多加一個星給他。

Had a fantastic experience! Despite its small size, the cozy atmosphere and welcoming vibe make it stand out. Top-notch, friendly service, and they offer great vegetarian customization. Ideal for tourists!

Delicious food. We went there for dinner and it was so good that we came back the next day for lunch. The owner is very nice and friendly, the food is fresh and very well served. We're vegetarians and there were enough options for us.

American here.. We visited today. Parking on the hill.. It was fantastic! Steak is not American tasting but once you get used to it's flavor it's pretty rad. Dinner for 2 with dessert was 100 euro.. Was comparable to a fancy restaurant though so imo worth it.. Die Kellner was gut as well!

We needed a welcome break from the standard fare of the area and left full and happy. Stop in during shoulder season. Host was awesome, explained the menu, and the preparation. We ordered a few tapas, and split the tenderloin with accompanying sides. Calamari was soft, bonus! Steak was cooked as asked, medium to medium rare, every bite was a delicious. Thank you. We could hear the waterfall, but came for dinner well after sunset. Would be great early to mid afternoon spot, especially for tapas.

My experience in this restaurant was not the best one. I ordered spare ribs and the taste of those was like stale and I payed 25€ for this. Definitely my opinion doesn't match with the reviews.

We had a ribeye, rumpsteak, and some onion rings and a salad, and the food was wonderful! Paid 130€ which is to be expected when going to eat steak, but the food ans service was definitely worth the price. Wish you guys luck with finding a new location for your wonderful restaurant!

Lovely setting with views over the river and forest ! We had a selection of tapas and steaks and it was all delicious! Patatas Bravas were amazing and the rump steak with baked potato was first class also . Really friendly service as well , highly recommend

The beer battered onion rings were fantastic, and the ribeye was well cooked. The specialty drinks were good and the view was wonderful!

Breathtakingly beautiful location! It is a fantastic family-owned business with lots of character and warmth. The friendly service made us feel right at home from the moment we arrived. We stayed over at this location. The rooms are spacious with a beautiful view from the balcony. The menu offers a great variety of delicious, well-prepared dishes using quality ingredients. With excellent food and warm hospitality, Steakhaus is a must-visit. Highly recommended! Thank you to Roman and his kind family. I only wish you the best.

We had lunch, as the custom is for Germans and other Europeans, at 12 (😱). I had a cream soup with shrimp which was exceptional. And as in most restaurants in Bavaria it was soooo hot inside. They should turn down the heating to be more sustainable, it's not necessary to burn live.

Magnificent local restaurant with delicious and authentic German cuisine. The owners are really nice and gave us great recommendations for the food. The portions were generous and they also serve a tasty regional beer. Keep in mind that you probably have to make a reservation beforehand.

Das Essen ist wunderbar. The whole experience of the location and the comfortable restaurant for lunch, was wonderful. I was really impressed. I was made very welcome. I look forward to visiting again soon.

I had a beef fillet in the picture. It was really good and specially the sauce for the fillet was absolutely wonderful. Vegetable salad is also good and they have draft beers from brewery. Highly recommand. The lady and server were kind and friendly. Thanks for a great dinner.

Super delicious food! Call in order to places a reservation as it's pretty popular! If I had to describe the place in a couple of words I would say: Super delicious food, great service and rustic ambient.

Large, clean and well equipped rooms in a small charming hotel. Located a short and pleasant walk from the Füssen train station and old town. Hotel staff speak English well. Fast Wi-Fi for most of my stay, although it did not work one night. Good value compared to other Fussen hotels in my estimation.

Very good food! Seasonal menu and great vegetarian dishes. Reservation necessary, limited parking. Almost no tourists and no groups.

Disappointing experience. The quality of the ingredients was very poor, worse than what you'd find at a typical kebab shop pizza. We ordered two pizzas, but was so bad that we had to throw it away—it was completely inedible.

Absolutely delighted with the taste and services… Authentic Italian pizza in all way, made in wooden oven with fresh ingredients and delicious sauce… haven’t eaten such a good pizza in whole Germany., fair price and got my pizza delivered at my place within few minutes after placing the order.. superb taste and perfect service… keep it up…. :)

The pizzas are very good. Cooked with a wood fired brick oven. They have a variety of pasta dishes and salads, all good, fresh, and nice portions. The owners are a very nice couple. Very friendly. Very close to the center of Fussen.

An amazing and humble establishment; very friendly staff and authentic stone-baked pizza using real firewood! Finding something like this in my home country of Canada would be nearly impossible. Tastes like it was homemade with love :) Overall 10/10 experience

We’re two Canadians in Germany looking for a pizza after two weeks of eating lots and lots of German food. We asked, what’s the best pizza you make. Without a pause, they said Bombay pizza, with chicken, pineapple, onions and an exceptionally delicious curry dip. I’m telling you, it was soooooo delicious. The beer went well with the pizza and we topped it off with a tub of Ben and Jerry’s ice cream. The staff was super friendly and helpful. The cook was a master of his trade. The wood fired oven created a perfect crust. I would swim the ocean to get this again, in my dreams of course. Seriously, it was simply delicious and just what we needed after six days of hiking 130 kilometres to this beautiful area of Germany.

We ordered a customized vegetarian party pizza. The pizza was really nice and had good quantity of veggies on it. Staff is generous and friendly.

It was my first time and definitely not the last. I bought medium pizza for myself and was a huge portion and really tasty.

Very nice place for one or two days.. Walking, Enjoying the weather and the view and the restaurants and the cafes

It’s so stunning 🥹 would like to go back soon 🥹

One of the greatest lakes in Germany 🇩🇪 You can spend a lot of time with full happiness and enjoyment there. Walk around or simply sitting and watching.. There are a lot of restaurants around. The people are very friendly and kind, the lakes have the attention from the local people and government, its clean and safe.. Totally worth the time, recommend.. 👍

A gorgeous lake nestled beautifully beautiful snow capped mountains. You can take a walk around the lake or bike around it. During the summer this place is great for having a nice picnic by the water. The place is surrounded by cafes and restaurants though right now due to lockdown everything is majorly closed or only doing take away. I highly recommend this place. I will definitely be back in the summers. This area is in the Fussen area so if you are here please don’t miss the lake

One of many lakes around Füssen, quite small but very pretty. Perfect for a days walk, if you pick up the pace it takes less than two hours to go around it. Plenty of benches, ducks, swans, wooden sculptures along the way, with fantastic view on the mountains. And without Corona, plenty of restaurants and cafes.

Great location and great place to visit with family and friends. This place I found best for sunset and also for swimming and boating. But you should know the water is very cold. So plan accordingly and after the sunset it gets really cold with the wind. There are few cafes next to the location, pizza and ice cream is recommended with the view 🤩 By the way, don’t miss out forggensee if you plan to go there.

beautiful lake, takes around 2hours to walk with a couple of short stops, unfortunately people who fish take them home so maybe not many fish left, i am carp angler from England looking for good place to fish, this is not it.

It’s really nice, clean and calm. There is a camper place exactly next to the lake!

Every year in October the lake is drained and the water from Lake Forggensee is back by June 1st at the latest. The lake reaches its full water level around June 15th, so that you can only see, enjoy and experience it as a full reservoir for four to five months of the year.

An amazing place for a day trip with your family or friends. The color of the water, mountains and sky makes it close to heaven. Easy to reach, not very far from Munich. It’s actually close to the boarder of Austria. If you go there, hopfensee and Lechfall is also recommended to visit. Hopfensee: specially for the sunset. Overall, it’s one of the most beautiful view I have ever seen in Bavaria till now.

Absolutely stunning. Great place for canooing or sailing or just a chill day at the shore

It's the best place on earth

Gorgeous lake in south Bavaria with beautiful mountain views in the back and clean waters! Indeed a great place to enjoy a relaxing walk!

Very nice place with a great view of Alps.. Recommended for a nice walk around the lake during winter time and obviously to swim during summer time 🏔 🌊

Very nice time we had. A lot of nature, close to Tirol. After we reach at the lake it will show a sign to go right up 15 min to see all from above. Enjoy 👌🏼

Alatsee is an absolutely wonderful place to get in contact with nature. Walking or jogging around the lake is such a pleasure activity. The whole environment is very clean and idyllic, it is the perfect place to disconnect off all technology for a bit and just enjoy the beauty of being alive.

Small lake with nice views. The round trip is around 30-40 minutes but the walk from Fussen can take around 1 and a half hours.

Gorgeous lake so close to the Austrian border. Super easy walk around that takes about half an hour. Lots of benches to sit and take in the view.

Not famous but just gorgeous! A place with great view 🤩👍🏼😉

Still a little of the trodden path, compared to many attractions around Füssen, even if it can get crowded in summer. But always worth a visit

Beautiful lake on top of a mountain with a beautiful view! Quite cold water though but if you’re up for it you can definitely swim in it. The water is super clear

Lovely area, nice easy walk, ideal for kids.

Many features make the kids busy here and it is a great fun even when the day is hot, as there are many shady places, kneipp and streams. The treetop walk is a wonderful addition to this forest path.

It was a really great Journey

Nice stop along the way with kids, fun activities and a great slide at the beginning. The fact that it's next to a busy road sadly makes it far less enjoyable

I went to Füssen with my friends Pathy, Sicky and Zippy. We weren’t sure what attractions we would find, at first we went for a walk to Austria, or was it Australia? Anyway that was ok... we saw a cave and then Zippy got scared by a bear and went home in tears. Eventually we encouraged Zippy to come back out and come to Aulwaldpfad... despite not being able to pronounce it. There was a delightful raft on the river which Pathy and Sicky took no problem. But then Zippy took it and he got his feet wet and that was sad. Undeterred however Zippy then ran over a rope bridge, went in to a ‘Dutch tunnel’ and went down a big slide. We also discovered a really fun game called ‘gondolea’. In this game you had to wait until someone shouted the aforementioned word and run as fast as you could to something which wasn’t on the ground. The person left on the ground at the end then had to hold an L symbol on their head - both to signify that they were a loser and that they were still learning. Personally I was the worst at this game but I still had a lot of fun in the playing of it. There is a treetop bridge that you can walk on after your tour of all the fun attractions. We however did not partake in the treetop walk because it cost money for a ticket. We reckon that you could sneak on to the bridge but we would not encourage that type of behaviour. There are many other enjoyable amenities in the surrounding area including a waterfall, toilet, benches, an old ski jump and a really fun mini golf. We enjoyed all of these amenities during our trip to Auwaldpfad. If you have friends like Pathy, Zippy and Sicky then I would recommend that you take the ‘jump’ and visit Auwaldpfad during the next time you are in the vicinity of the historic Bavarian town of Füssen.

Fun water and mud walking activity for bigger and smaller kids. Take some extra clothes. Enjoy :)

Top!

We followed our noses here from down the street. What a cute place! And so delicious! Great place to pickup bread or your morning breakfast. Seems like the locals love it too.

Amazing breakfast and crew. They speak English and the bread is really delicious.

I was about to start an adventure, so I wanted to fill up before I did. I chose this charming spot in Füssen. My significant other and I walked inside. I was blown away by all of the items to choose from. We went to the counter to order. I ordered a Hausgemachter Apfelstrudel. It was a Stück for 3,90 €. I also ordered a Cappuccino. It was 3,40 €. We got a Chococino to share. It was 3,50 €. We sat down at a table inside. The Apfelstrudel had a lot of layers. It was pretty good. The Cappuccino was prepared nicely. It had a pleasant flavor. The Chococino was my favorite item. It was packed with flavor. The service was fantastic. Everyone I encountered was helpful. I didn’t have any issues. Overall, I’m glad I got the chance to try this spot out. I wouldn’t hesitate to go again in the future. Date of visit: 17.9.2024

Lot's of tasty breakfast options! We had cappucinos with oat milk (they're a bit bigger than a usual cappucino) and both sweet and salty baked goods. I recommend sitting outside, it was nice and calm in the morning :) The staff was friendly and helpful.

Wonderful family-owned bakery in Füssen! Heavenly pastries and kind staff, most of whom speak at least some English. The coffee was also excellent. Start your day here before headed to the castles or a bit of hiking and you can't go wrong. <3

The best butter stuffed pretzel I have ever enjoyed. I can't get that where I live. I'm writing this review 4 months later cause I'm still craving it. So good.

Really excellent little cafe we went for breakfast and lunch both days we were in town. Their breakfast pastries are excellent. We also loved the cheese pretzels and sausage! Very reasonably priced.

Vast monastery right in the centre of Fussen - plenty to see inside.

Schöner Innenhof

Benedictine monastery of St. Mang is a very interesting building. We couldn’t go inside when we where there but nonetheless, we we’re still impressed by the architectural symmetry of the place. It is located in the center on the city, definitely worth a visit if you walking around.

Well worth the entrance fee! There's so much to see, my personal highlight was the beautiful library, and of course the Dance Macabre. Highly recommended 👍

If you are visiting the Hohes Schloss in Füssen, don’t forget to come in the former monastery to enjoy the south German baroque sculpture and frescoes.

Miraculous monastery!! So many things to o aee especially the Danza Macabra. I stayed there almost two hours. Definitely worth of a visit. The price of admission ticket is very cheap. The lady at the reception totally helpful. Do not miss it!!

Lot to see.. Decent price

It’s adorable how the nature can be beautiful… It’s near Neuschwanstein so you can easily see it from there.

🌊 Alpsee, Schwangau (near Munich & Füssen) 🏔️ Nestled at the foot of Neuschwanstein and Hohenschwangau Castles, the Alpsee is one of Bavaria’s most beautiful lakes—a true postcard setting! 💙 Surrounded by forested mountains, it offers crystal-clear water, peaceful hiking trails, and magical reflections of the castles on calm days.🚶‍♂️ Scenic circular hiking path (≈5 km) around the lake. 🏊 Swimming in summer & boat rentals for a serene ride. 📸 Stunning photo spots, especially near Alpsee car park & castle viewpoints. 🦢 Spot swans and local wildlife along the shore. 🍽️ Cafés and restaurants nearby in Hohenschwangau village. Easily reachable from Munich (2 hrs by train/car), Alpsee is the perfect nature escape to pair with a castle visit. 🌄 #Alpsee #Schwangau #Bavaria #HiddenGem #NatureEscape

The lake and the surrounding scenery are quite lovely, making it a perfect spot to relax and enjoy the view from a bench or perhaps have a picnic.

Absolute beauty, a true Alpine pearl. This place is so heavenly serene that you immediately find yourself immersed in nature. The colors are mesmerizing, changing from sky-blue to deep turquoise. It was impossible for such an amateur photographer like me to capture the unfading beauty of Alpsee. So I'm very grateful of people who posted good photos, thanks to which I discovered this treasure. After visiting Hohenschwangau and Neuschwanstein I was truly delighted to spend around an hour at this peaceful heaven, watching the ducks swimming in the clear water. There was an absolutely cute dog playing fetch with his human, swimming around the ducks, while none of them was scared.

walked here after visiting Neuschwanstein Castle & Marienbrüke. very nice to duck-watch around the area (:

One of the most beautiful lakes i had ever had a chance gazing upon.

One of the most beautiful lakes in Germany!

The place was very nice but the food was ok at best. The waitress was really kind but she was never there for the whole evening, so that we couldn't even ask for some bread. On top of that we had to wait 20 minutes to eat when the restaurant was basically empty. The prices were a bit high considering the quality of the food.

Good food and the prices were reasonable. The location is pretty nice. It only takes cash though and there are no visible signs, so be wary.

Just had a drink. Friendly staff and a nice designed restaurant

We stopped here before heading to the famous castle and it was one of the highlights of the trip. The food is so good with very deep flavours and loads of intensity, a very home made Bavarian style and nice big portions. The price is very appropriate. Don’t miss the pasta with cheese sauce and crispy onions.

Open earlier than most of the other lunch places at 11:00 am. Food was ok, although schnitzel was not anything special. We ordered one kids meal and the waitress brought the full size and charged us for full size even after she realized she put in the order incorrectly. Beer was good though.

I had the maulstachen (this ravioli-like food) with mushroom sauce while my husband had a large salatteler with some sort of deep fried cheese thing. Food is okay. Service is good. Just manage your expectations and remember that you are in a tourist town.

The soup portion is extremely small. The "bowl" was just a bit bigger than a coffee cup. The waiter seemed bored and there was no sign that you can only pay by cash. The fact that there were plenty of empty tables should have been a warning, considering that in other places you had to wait. I would not return to eat here.

We had a wonderful lunch at Zum Schwanen in Füssen. Everything we tried was fresh, flavourful, and satisfying. The meal began with a hearty beef soup, followed by a delicious mushroom cake — beautifully presented with a refined mix of textures and flavours. It was easily the highlight of the meal! We also enjoyed a traditional cabbage roll and a locally prepared red sausage, both well-executed and full of authentic taste. The service was quick and welcoming, especially thanks to the kind assistance of a helpful lady who made our experience even more pleasant. A great spot for a relaxed and high-quality lunch in the heart of an old part of Füssen. Great value for your money. Very recommended!

We all had a delicious meal, and the food and service were wonderful. The only downsides were the €4.50 charge per cola and the fact that no complimentary bread was offered. It’s clear you’re paying a bit for the location, but overall, we had a great dining experience and would definitely recommend giving it a try.

Fantastic kitchen and service. The terrasse is very confortable and the surrounding quiet and pretty. The place to go ❤️

We came to this place by chance and nothing could have been better. A pleasant, intimate environment complemented by delicious food and good beer, what more could you ask for. Thank you for a great experience.

Great Schnitzel in a nice outside terasse. We had no reservation, but we got one table pretty fast. Tasteful dessert for fair price.

Went here for lunch with my father. It was nice & warm inside, with a relaxed & friendly atmosphere. Many delicious options for food, and I would highly recommend the deer with blue cabbage & potato dumplings- it was all cooked perfectly 🙂

A lovely stop during our trip to the castle and Fussen. We sat outside and enjoyed the atmosphere. The service was good and we did not wait for a table. We really liked the schnitzel.

Amazing place! It is beautiful, the location is easy to find, also can park your car. The rooms are old school, toilet and shower are on the corridor, in your room you have a sink only. Everything is very clean. But the mood is very nice and calm. The staff is so very helpful and everyone walks with a smile on their face. 😊 The restaurant is comfy with classic design but with a modern feeling. And the food...!!! This was the best of the best we ate the whole week in Germany!!! The kitchen closes early, the last order can be given at 18:30, but it totally wotrth it. Try their Käsespätzle! 😎 You're usually with car in this area. Do yourself a favour and have at least a dinner here (even if the old school room is not your style)! 😉

Gorgeous location with the most peaceful lake!! The staff were wonderful, the floorboards a bit creaky but the beds were comfy and the rooms well laid out. A great selection for breakfast including a waffle machine (very exciting!) and plenty of parking. The road to the hotel is a bit windy but really takes you into nature and away from everyday life... We actually booked last minute after our campsite got flooded but it beat all expectations - Would definitely recommend and hope to be back soon

Review is only for the service at the restaurant. The place is located about 20 meters from a clear nice swimming lake. We went to the lake with our two kids to swim and so we didn’t bring any streetclothes. The kids got hungry and we hoped to have a small lunch at the nice looking restaurant. However as we waited to get a table a very rude woman told us we are not allowed to sit while wearing bathing suits. Keep in mind that it is right next to a swinging lake. So we got some fries, a beer and a latte to go. The fries and beer were good but the latte was lukewarm.

Stopped by while cycling thru the lakes Only tried the handmade cakes, delicious

Great location, we'll cooked meals.

Fantastic location. Breakfast was good, and service was okay. Room are really simple, with almost no room, and just a sink. Wc and bath is shared with other guest. They are clean and simple.

Fantastic location, surrounded by trees and mountains and at the foot of a gorgeous clear lake. There are hiking paths in all directions and a Kneipp walkthrough running directly from the lake. The hotel was actually a spontaneous visit (after our campsite got flooded) but we were met by friendly and competent staff, had a great room with a balcony and enjoyed a good continental breakfast. There was even a waffle machine with fresh batter! The staff helped with every query and always with a smile on their face. Good WiFi and clean facilities. The floorboards in the building are quite loud and creaky but this is to be expected in an old idyllic building :)

The Food was OK... The Bear cold Service was friendly

I like this place, nice food, nice person, nice view.

Very peaceful view, wonderful food, friendly staff. My family and I sat at the tables outside overlooking the lakes, and watched ducks swim and feed while we ate. The children loved it. The food was great, and we were warmly greeted by the staff. Take the walk through the park and have dinner here during your stay in Fussen

A traditional German meal served with a view. We sampled three different meals and enjoyed each one immensely. This restaurant offers a quiet alternative to the busy city of Fussen. Our waitress was very pleasant and easy to understand even with her limited understanding of English. We highly recommend this restaurant to everyone

Nice, but beware that they do not accept major credit cards.

Slow service, not attentive for any follow up orders, or to receive payment. Cake was average. But, important to mention, that I am sure this was due to the Covid situation running on low staff levels due to the pandemic and will myself certainly give it another try if I have the opportunity to then submit a higher rating

Gorgeous food. Relaxing area and atmosphere. Super friendly staff. Did I mention the food was delicious!? Do yourself a favour and eat here!

A beautiful place with a very pleasant atmosphere. The food was excellent – the burger was simply perfect. The French fries were also outstanding. A special highlight was the cook (a Spaniard) who kindly customized my order by adding a fried egg to the burger, just as I requested. This made it even better. Highly recommended, and I will definitely return.

Lovely place in the sun on the road to the castle. Genuine German beers and fine for family. We cycled here. Great rest stop.

I’ve been here some times and I fell in love with the smashed burguer, the portions are enough for the price and the service is really fast 👍🏼

Average food, small portions, prices a bit excessive. You can eat so much bette than this in Germany. We had the Schnitzel and it was fryed 10 min more than what it should. Super tough to shew... potato salad was a bit better. The steak was average and the french fried also fryed too much. Someone needs to give the heads up to the kitchen that the food is jot meant to be black...

Cosy and delicious. Extremely friendly stuff. Loved this place.

Great ambience...loved the beer and food

Very local feel to the place. Food was a bit average, not very much choice. They gave us tap water but later charged €1.70 per glass which made us feel ripped off.

Food is pretty good and portions are not too big. We ordered the Wiener schnitzel and it was a massive portion like some places serve you. The portion was just right for one person. Can recommend this restaurant.

I had a really great meal here. A lovely soup and a fabulous pork and mushroom main, as well as a good dessert. Dishes were local and very good too. As I was staying in the hotel I almost went into town for dinner but I'm really pleased I didn't!

Very nice restaurant in Bavarian style inside the Hirsch Hotel. The atmosphere is warm and friendly with polite staff. The dished (based on Bavarian cusine) are well prepared and tasty. I had a Hirschrücken and it was very soft and delicious, really well done. The homemade mashed potatoes were also very good, really nice to see a restaurant offering freshly homemade mashed potatoes instead of ready to cook one.

Decent food, friendly staff! The Wiener Schnitzel is recommended. Shirt list menu, but that was due to the restrictions in Germany. Located downtown easy accessible!

The absolute best mushroom soup I’ve ever had!! Should have just ordered 3 of these for all my food. That’s not to say the pork and schnitzel weren’t good. They were. The soup was just too good though! Anyway, the outdoor seats were great. And the hotel is super cool looking. And old and stuff too.

Our waiter was very nice but unfortunately the goose we ordered was very dry (overcooked) and the venison was good but for what we paid I thought we may get a bit more than the ONE piece that was about an inch & a half in diameter and maybe an inch and a half thick. Most of sides had great flavor though.

Very good Bavarian cuisine in a charming traditional atmosphere We had the roasted and smoked venison (picture) which was one of the best ones I ever had The rumpsteak was also very good. Service was quick and friendly. Prices range between 9€ for vegetarian dishes like Käsespätzle up to 20-25 dishes for the aforementioned dishes. All in all a very recommendable restaurant for both finer evenings or beer nights with the lads

It's a good shop with a nice and helpful, friendly staff. Here you can find lot of different kind stuff. All assortment is sorted in two floors and very well transparent. Just problem could be with a parking if you are coming with a car, because there is no free parking, but otherwise it has a good location.

Big shop with 2 floors, and mechanical stairs. Has a great variety of things froms clothes and bed linen to school and handcrafting stuff, bike accessories and lot of equipment for kitchen, bathroom and decoration in general. Good offers from time to time, and some really cheap products from the usual stock. The only minus is that it is usually a bit messy and not that pleasant to walk around during rush hours.

Nice department store with a whole bunch of things.

The store is full of merchandise and in some departments very hard to get through with social distancing. Some of the merchandise is hung up so high that it's impossible to get it down if you're not very tall. The cashier's do not have to wear masks so a smile and a hello would be nice. There are a few that are very friendly. Prices are great.

The store had what we needed but the lady working the cash register this evening was incredibly rude. She scanned our things and slid them to the side and then turned her back to us and began talking with another employee while we paid, okay. We didn’t even get our receipt because while we were paying and after she gave no care to us, only cared about her conversation with the other employee.

I found everything I needed till I got to the children’s doll section. Is every doll white here?

Came here for bottled waters. 10/10 water came as described

We had a perfect stay at Hotel Fussen. The room was spacious, clean and comfortable. The included buffet breakfast was very good. The reception staff were friendly and helpful. We really liked the location of the hotel. It's just a few minutes walk from the train and bus stations, where you can take transport to do hikes in the nearby areas and the Neuschewanstein and Hohenschwanghau castles.

My bottom line on any property is: would I recommend it to family and friends. I wouldn't recommend this hotel. Too many negatives. Our room, for instance, was extremely hot with no way to cool it down. At least 80F/27C at night. The bathroom was tiny and the toilet jammed into a corner. You had to sit on it at a 45-degree angle. The shower was like trying to rinse w an eye dropper the water pressure was so bad on the second floor. It had a waterfall faucet in the shower, but the water pressure wasn't strong enough to keep it on. The sheets were like sleeping on burlap. The worst, though, is the confusion they had on my stay. They put me in one room, then claimed I was in that room plus another. They called multiple times and sent 'urgent' emails wanting to know why I was in two rooms and told me I needed to move my belongings ... Only to find out that they had screwed up. I didn't appreciate the implications that I had done something wrong and really didn't appreciate the multiple interruptions while I was trying to vacation. Travelling can be stressful enough ... I didn't need extra when I wasn't at fault. And on the day I was checking out, they sent emails to check in online. What? Why? Location was great. The restaurant is very nice. But there must be better hotels in Fussen that solve their own problems without being so eager to foist them onto a guest.

Finding the parking was a little challenging. You have to drive through pedestrian walkways yo the back. But once you know, it's the best place to stay and enjoy the old village. Fabulous all around!

Wonderful service and perfect location! Rooms were spacious and clean! Breakfast was extensive and welcoming. Would definitely stay here again.

Location is great but was expensive for one night stay. Can always look for better cheaper options nearby. Didn’t provide tea/coffee. Provided with hot water kettle only after request. Parking is behind the hotel as the front entrance is pedestrian only street

Right in the heart of Füssen. Great breakfast and spacious rooms. Feels a bit like an Airbnb because of how check-in and check-out works. Reception is not open 24/7 so take that into consideration.

In the heart of the Old Town. Has parking, which needs a reservation, and entails an interesting drive down what looks like pedestrianised roads. Rooms are very modern, warm, and comfortable. I note some reviews critique the lack of air conditioning. However, I see that as a plus. Credit to reception for a most enthusiastic, hospitable, and fluent English welcome. We returned to this hotel two years after the review above, to the same welcome. That in itself is testament to our faith in the place.

The signs are only in German, and they didn’t indicate there was an audio guide, so think a translation or tour app is pretty key for understanding the content. Even without those, the museum has a lot of interesting objects that are well displayed and laid out within this former Benedictine Monastery, such as the Dance of Death in Annakapelle painting, recreated violin making workshop, library’s architecture, seeing the inside of a small organ, the Kapitelsaal room’s paintings, and more.

Museum is 2 floors. u start with geology and roman arcade discovery. a chapel, baroque library, baroque study room, baroque imperial hall, violin history, hand made baroque cribs and much more to discover. very intellectual and fun to explore.

Interesting little museum that’s connected to the St Mang Abbey (I think?) . Hours are very odd - in the winter, only open Fri-Sun from 1-4pm. You get a 1€ discount if you have a Fussen card. My favorite room was the library. It’s freezing cold in there, so keep your winter jackets with you. My main negative is all the info placards are in German, which I guess I can’t complain about, but it gets tiring to have to translate everything (as a non German speaking tourist) , so you end up just walking through and not learning a whole lot. There are 2 WC in the museum. Lots of mixture of what’s in it - lots about violin making; some old stones; library; religious items. Definitely worth stopping by tho if you have an hour.

A very mixed bag: rather incoherent collection of things. Puzzling, to be honest. A nice building. Not a great museum.

Small but perfectly formed. Fascinating to learn about the musical and industrial history of the town

the most beautiful museum i have ever been to, with the friendliest lady at the counter. the exhibitions are so unique and interesting, they take you through the history of string instruments so beautifully. thank you!!!!!! we had an amazing time!!!!!! 💕💕💕💕💕💕💕⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Unexpectedly beautiful this is a literal gem!

Very cosy, small, local restaurant with delicious food. We had goulasch soup (great!) and pork schnitzel. Very friendly, English speaking waitress :) I highly recommend this place!

Wanted some schnitzel after spending the entire day at the castles. This popped up with great reviews. I was highly pleased!! The town is very cute. This little spot had super quick service. The food was fantastic. The staff were so friendly and sweet and attentive. Very affordable! And not the high prices like you see near the castles. Highly recommended the 10 min drive to this little spot! The area directly around this is open to locals only for parking, so you do need to be mindful that you’ll have to park a little way away but not too far. Less than a 10 min walk.

What a find was this restaurant!! We had dinner our last night here and we shared a salad and had the Mac and cheese and the Wiener schnitzel and local bier! The food was very good, the service fast and the ambience, vibe and owners all sehr gut!! Definitely worth a stop if you’re in Fussen! Highly recommend!

Too many restaurant to choose from but this one caught our attention. We had rostï with smoked salmon and salad,it was superb. The lady was very friendly. We had our table outside .It has an outdoor and indoor seatings. Prices are reasonable. Recommended

Great service, the lady helping us was very sweet. The food was also delicious! Definitely recommended to try out typical dishes. Only thing is, portions are a bit small compared to the price, but it is a touristic small town, so it makes sense.

Much better than average traditional German food and at a lower than average price. Great service too. Perfect choice in Fussen.

Beim Ditsch is a great spot to enjoy traditional Bavarian food. We had the white sausages and another dish I can’t remember, but everything we tried was very tasty. Friendly service and a cozy atmosphere made it a lovely stop

We were here on a Sunday for lunch, and had the best pizza in a while. I had Spinaci e Gorgonzola and my husband had the Inferno. So lecker! And the service was extra ordinary, the hosts are very friendly. Will definitely come again 💜

A family owned restaurant with delicious pizza and a wonderful atmosphere - you have to meet Salvatore! We ate here on our first night in Füssen, and made sure to return again before we left!!

If you are looking for an authentic Italian meal, this is the place. The calzone and Rigatoni were the best we had ever had (and that is not an exaggeration). It is a small restaurant with limited tables, but that lends to the coziness and warmth of this Sicilian gem in the heart of Fussen.

The food and service were incredible! Would highly recommend to anyone who loves authentic Italian food.

Super good pizza! The owner was very gracious 👍🏻

This place was decided upon since it had good Google reviews, was close, and was quick. The food was delicious and our waitress (the owner's wife) was welcoming and sweet. The owner (who is from Italy) also came over and spoke with us. They didn't speak a lot of English but I had a delightful conversation with them in German that made our visit memorable. The only problem I had was that my drink (a Hugo cocktail) basically just tasted like a wine spritzer, but I drank it anyway. I love that this is a local place from an actual Italian and would probably go back again if given the chance.

Great welcoming place for the family, all hungry (especially with 2 growing boys!) nice to have an authentic Italian pizza (has other dishes) as a break from the tasty austro/germanic food. Salvatore was a super host, great personality, funny and very accommodating. The pizza was delicious very tasty! Would definitely return if we had more days
