Flight description
On this route you will experience all the diversity of the Bavarian foothills of the Alps. The state capital of Munich, countless beautiful lakes, spectacular Alpine peaks, and Neuschwanstein Castle will make your time in the window seat pass quickly; however, the memories will stay with you forever.
Experience Bavaria like never before: enjoy a scenic flight to Neuschwanstein and beyond.
Start your unforgettable Neuschwanstein scenic flight at the ALPEN AIR terminal in Augsburg. From there, we head toward Munich via Dachau, gliding at low altitude over FC Bayern Munich’s Allianz Arena. Our route takes us over the English Garden, the Frauenkirche, Marienplatz, and Theresienwiese—offering incredible aerial views from just 600 meters above the ground. Along the way, you’ll also see highlights like Nymphenburg Palace, BMW World, the Olympic Stadium, and the 291-meter Olympic Tower.
As the Neuschwanstein scenic flight continues along the Würm Valley, you’ll reach Lake Starnberg. Here, if visibility allows, it’s your first chance to spot the Alps on the horizon. Afterward, the route soars over the crystal-clear Easter Lakes, the colorful Riegsee, and the peaceful Staffelsee.
Flying deeper into the Bavarian foothills, you’ll marvel at natural wonders like Kochelsee, the emerald Walchensee, and the rugged Benediktenwand.
One of the highlights of our Neuschwanstein scenic flight is flying over Mittenwald with panoramic views of the Karwendel mountains, followed by Elmau Castle and Garmisch-Partenkirchen. The legendary Zugspitze—Germany’s highest mountain—rises majestically into view at 2,962 meters. You’ll fly close enough to see visitors at the summit and catch a glimpse of the deep blue Eibsee lake shimmering below.
Our Neuschwanstein scenic flight then takes a northwesterly turn across the Ammergau Alps and the picturesque Plansee. Finally, the moment you’ve been waiting for arrives: the breathtaking Neuschwanstein Castle.
Perched above the Forggensee and framed by the Alps, this world-famous fairytale castle is the crown jewel of your Neuschwanstein scenic flight. From your personal window seat, you’ll enjoy the most stunning perspective imaginable.
To end the journey, we follow the River Lech past Hohenpeißenberg and 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 before the flight returns to Augsburg.
In fact, the Neuschwanstein scenic flight goes beyond a simple tour—it turns into an aerial adventure across Bavaria that will amaze and inspire you.
