Possible day trip during Oktoberfest visit 2014.


                          
                                                        KLOSTER ANDECHS


                    Head for the mountain! The sacred mountain, the sacred mountain of beer!
                             The “Heliger Berg” (meaning Sacred Mountain in German)

Upon it sits Kloster Andechs, a millennium-old Benedictine monastery and church.
The place of pilgrimage rises above the lovely Ammersee (Lake Ammer) about 40kms south-west of central Munich. But the main reason for going there is the 3,500-seat beer garden and restaurant which surround the church. The monk-brewed libation is considered one of Germany’s finest.
To top it off, there are great views of the lake and surrounds from the top of the hill. All in all it's an excellent spot to while away an afternoon.

Fruhlingsfest Munich 2013


Often referred to as the Oktoberfest's "little sister", the Munich Fruhlingsfest begins next weekend.

Here you will find a festival similar to the Oktoberfest but on a smaller scale. there are rides and entertainment, small side stalls offering quick snacks and food and 3 large beer tents.

The 3 large tents are the Hippodrom, the Festhalle Bayernland and the Munchner Weissbiergarten, all offering seating for several thousand guests, live music and delicious Bavarian food.
