Route Overview and Flight Experience

On this route you will experience all the diversity of the Bavarian foothills of the Alps. From the window seat of our airplane, you can admire the state capital of Munich, countless beautiful lakes, spectacular Alpine peaks, and Neuschwanstein Castle. The flight will make time pass quickly; however, the memories will stay with you forever.

Experience Bavaria from Above

 

Experience Bavaria like never before, because a Neuschwanstein scenic flight offers far more than a traditional sightseeing tour. Instead, it takes you on an extraordinary aerial journey across some of Germany’s most breathtaking landscapes.

 

Your adventure begins at the ALPEN AIR terminal in Augsburg. From there, we head toward Munich via Dachau. Shortly afterward, you glide at low altitude over FC Bayern Munich’s Allianz Arena.

 

Munich from a Unique Perspective

 

As the flight continues, you pass above the English Garden, the Frauenkirche, Marienplatz and Theresienwiese. From just 600 meters above the ground, Munich reveals an entirely new dimension. In addition, you enjoy spectacular views of Nymphenburg Palace, BMW World, the Olympic Stadium and the 291-meter Olympic Tower.

 

From Lakes to Alpine Foothills

 

As your Neuschwanstein scenic flight progresses along the Würm Valley, the scenery gradually transforms. Soon, Lake Starnberg appears beneath you. If visibility allows, you may even catch your first glimpse of the Alps on the horizon.

 

Afterward, the route continues over the crystal-clear Easter Lakes, the colorful Riegsee and the peaceful Staffelsee. Gradually, the aircraft moves deeper into the Bavarian foothills. Consequently, dramatic landscapes unfold below, including Kochelsee, the emerald Walchensee and the rugged Benediktenwand.

 

Alpine Highlights and Germany’s Highest Peak

 

One of the most spectacular moments of your Neuschwanstein scenic flight arrives near Mittenwald. Here, panoramic views of the Karwendel mountains open up before you. Shortly afterward, you pass Elmau Castle and Garmisch-Partenkirchen.

 

Meanwhile, the legendary Zugspitze rises majestically into view at 2,962 meters. You fly close enough to observe visitors at the summit and admire the deep blue Eibsee shimmering below.

 

The Grand Finale: Neuschwanstein Castle

 

Then, as the journey continues, your Neuschwanstein scenic flight turns north-west across the Ammergau Alps and the picturesque Plansee. Finally, the highlight of the entire experience appears: the world-famous Neuschwanstein Castle.

 

Perched above the Forggensee and framed by the Alps, this fairytale landmark becomes the crown jewel of your flight. From your personal window seat, you enjoy a perspective that few travelers ever experience.

 

A Memorable Return to Augsburg

 

To conclude the journey, the aircraft follows the River Lech past Hohenpeißenberg. Afterwards, you fly once more over the beautiful Fünfseenland. First, admire the monastery of Andechs on its “Holy Mountain.” Then enjoy the impressive Ammersee, the calm Pilsensee and the turquoise Wörthsee.

 

Ultimately, a Neuschwanstein scenic flight becomes far more than a simple tour. Instead, it transforms into an inspiring aerial adventure across Bavaria that combines culture, nature and unforgettable emotion.
