Lake Ammersee, forests and meadows shape Utting am Ammersee, along with panoramic views of the mountains. The area combines lakeside and natural scenery with specific activities of different kinds: a plant maze, climbing routes, a diving tower and a landing stage for Ammersee boat trips. When choosing accommodation, you can first consider whether you mainly want to experience the landscape or focus on individual activities.

Culture in the Landsberg Am Lech Destination

The Landsberg Am Lech destination focuses on its own cultural and historical themes. The Bayertor in Landsberg am Lech has stood since 1425 and is considered one of Bavaria’s finest Gothic buildings. Landsberg am Lech is also home to the Mutterturm, an exceptional Historicist monument commissioned by Herkomer in honour of his mother. The Landsberg am Lech City Museum presents the city’s history and connects it with questions of the present day. On the Leitenberg, it offers one of the finest views of the city of Landsberg. Guided tours of Landsberg am Lech lead through the old town and recount its eventful history: its dukes and prince-electors, the salt trade, raftsmen, dyers and tanners, Jesuits and Ursulines, and legends from the Middle Ages to modern times. In the wider Landsberg Am Lech destination, Lechpark Pössinger Au is the city’s main local recreation area; its woodlands, meadows and floodplain landscape offer a natural contrast to the cultural themes mentioned above.
