Ammergau Alps Meditation Trail

The towns and villages in the region would like to invite you to the mountains, the Ammergau Alps, for meditative walking tours, and a whole lot more than tourist sights: paths leading to mental and spiritual impulses. This might at first seem strange to those who see the foothills and high country of the Alps merely as rustic Bavarian "Lederhosen" terrain or as a fun park for various types of sport, and believing that spiritual stimulus belongs in Indian ashrams or sweat lodges of native Americans. However, those who are keen to discover and are free of prejudices may take up our offer to find out more about the human presence hidden in the spiritual stores with regard to the region's arts and culture, to learn more about themselves through the testimonies of the centuries they come across at every turn, and to gain knowledge of what our splendid nature and, last but not least, the local people may reveal through legacies and reflections of any kind.
