ROMANCE
Whether it be the panorama from an Alpine peak or a lazy cruise along the Danube, Bav-
aria packs in a lot of dreamy encounters. But the biggest chunk of romance comes in the
form of the Romantic Road, a mostly rural route meandering from one time-warped medi-
eval town to the next.
MOUNTAINS
Compared to its neighbours, Bavaria possesses but a scant sliver of the Alps, but there's
still bags of dramatic scenery out there to enjoy. Clearly visible and easily reachable from
Munich, winter skiing and summer hiking are the main draws.
