I love Andechs. We traveled there in 1992 and met a couple of people. It was a super cold day in early September and not many were there. Fast forward 31 years and we are still good friends. We live in Canada and they live near Frankfurt. We will be meeting up again May

Sorry we’re a bit behind, we’re catching up!! Loving this, 30 seconds in and we need to go to this place already!!!! Your trains are so good compared to ours! We would definitely do the walk rather than catch the bus. That cafe looks great, but agree that you need room for the beer 🍻 great to see your sponsored ad on the video!! That walk looks stunning, but bring on the beer!! Crazy tree. Wow, ok, what a stunning building, plus it’s a brewery. Loving the music, sausages, pretzels….and the beer….not sure about the fish though. 2 handed beers, that’s where it’s at. I’m sure it tastes as good as it looks. Yep, we’d walk down to the lake too, walk off the beer and food. Right, we have just decided we are going to visit here, so thank you for introducing it to us. Loved the sunset and waters edge shot. We loved that video both x 🍻

@@NearFromHome There are two lovely hikes. One from Pöcking and the other from Tützing. Both go through the fields, forest, and moorland that separates the two lakes. The Tützing walk goes through more forest however, which is the one we took with my Grandmother all those years ago. It's also slightly longer but not onerously so. And, of course, you can access both ends of the hike via S-bahn with a short walk or bus ride to Herrsching.

Servuß Ben and Camille! Fam of 3 here now (6/9/23 from Pittsburgh) We were just at Andechs on Tuesday!!! No live music but it was GORGEOUS! We’re still here! In Salzburg right now!! YOU HAVE HELP US SOOOO MUCH!!! 🤗❣️ We watch your vids over and over- great info! We went to Tegernsee yesterday and hiked all the way up to the stunning top!!! Phenomenal! Got a delish apfel strudel mit vanillasoßin and ein masse🍻(or two) and headed back down. The path with all the roots was tough but we were extra careful there. Quite covered with slippy-dried leaves now. Coming up was exactly as you both said! Not much talking- out of breath but not out of reach for anyone with ok ability. Just take lots of breaks and look behind you for stunning views all the way up. Going down was harder than we thought- not fab for wonky oknees, but we did it! So worth it!! Thank you soo much for all your fab info and encouragement! 🍻Prost!!

Hi! Netherlands here. For us the fish doesnt look gross at all. Pretty good actually. Over here we eat lots of smoked fish like mackerel and the king of smoked fish due to its high fat content: Smoked eel ("Gerookte Paling" in Dutch). When you ever have the chance try it. It literally melts in your mouth. Very, very expensive though because there is a limit on how much they can catch to protect the population size of the fish. It can get up to 10 euro per 100 grams so we dont eat it that often anymore but the taste and texture is unmatched. Andechs is great by the way, was there last month and loved the dark doppelbock beer in 1 liter glasses :D

@volkerbauer1974 Ай бұрын

The market is only once a year and "Töpfer" from all over Europe flock to Diessen to sell their goods, anything from clay-work to pprcelan. It is very crowded but extremely good and well worth a visit.❤

@NearFromHome Ай бұрын

Very cool! What is the market called?

@volkerbauer1974 Ай бұрын

The market is called Diessener Töpfermarkt, but I think it only takes place once a yesr. It's right down at the lake-shore, so it quite scenic. And you can get anything clay-work related from a simple cup to a piece of art-work. We absolutely loved it.

You are right, it is one of the nicest family outings Greater Munich has to offer, especially the Ammersee which I find even more mystical than the Starnberger See. Been to the Ammersee not that long ago, to the Töpfermarkt in Diessen and absolutely loved it. As for the monastery, I think the church is just absolutely stunning, it's a pitty you didn't include it in the vid. As for the beer garden, I think the beer is outstanding but the beer garden itself is a bit of a tourist trap. What do you think?

@NearFromHome Ай бұрын

I agree! Tbh, we left our spicy Andechs beer garden opinions on the cutting room floor in an effort to stay positive because we actually have a lot of friends and acquaintances who love it. I don't get it, but I guess it's popular for a reason. I really like the hike, Herrsching, and swimming in Ammersee. We have been to Dießen to see the church, but haven't seen the market. It's cute!

Interesting, this is one where I would have to disagree with you. Went there last summer with my family. Between the fact that there were thousands of bees swarming around, barely finding a table that was not in the sweltering sun, and the chaos to get the food I doubt we will be back. There were so many things listed on the menu that simply were not available, and the servers had absolutely no idea where to go find these things. Want a full meal? Be prepared to stand in multiple lines. Unlike a traditional biergarten you pay at each stall so the process takes significantly longer. Perhaps it was due to Covid, but it left a horrible impression on us. I have to say, the walk from Herrsching along the Ammersee and through the woods was phenomenal. The beer is amazing as well. Unfortunately all trails brought us up a different route that was tough with a toddler. Maybe we will have to try it again, you made it look great!

@NearFromHome Жыл бұрын

Honestly, those points are super valid. While the walk and Ammersee is nice, Andechs isn't my favourite, but SO many people have asked us to cover it. I think we were lucky because we visited at the end of September. If you want this, but better in everyway, check out our Weltenburg video!
