Weg
After the train station in Rohrdorf (Oberbayern), turn left on the first road, Bahnhofstrasse. At a T-intersection, in front of Hotel Zur Post, turn left. Take the second right after leaving the village, continuing to follow the signage for the Bodensee-Königsee Radweg. Stay on this road as it curves through the countryside. Eventually, you'll find yourself in Altenbeuer. Take a right where the road ends, and then turn left. Continue following the signs into Neubeuern.
Continue through the old town center of Neubeuern, through the old city gate. Follow the road as it descends down to cross the Inn River and skirts the southern tip of Raubling. Enjoy the flat in the fields before the first climb for the day.
Eventually, you will find yourself on a rather long, sustained climb. You will stay high through picturesque farmland with dramatic peaks as a backdrop. In Neuhaus, just before reaching the Schlier Lake, the signage becomes scarce in your direction, but remains well signed-out for those riding the Bodensee-Königsee Radweg in the other direction. Keep your eyes open, and you will be able to figure it out.
Enjoy a nice drop to the Schliersee and follow the route for a short distance along the quaint shoreline. This enjoyment ends abruptly with a sharp left time and a short uphill climb, pulling you away from the shoreline.
The section between the Schliersee and Tegernsee is a challenge. Indeed, there is a 3 km. stretch where it is recommended you walk your bicycles due to the steep and loose nature of the route. Strong cyclists will be able to stay on their bicycles for the climb, but we recommend walking, at a minimum, the first few meters of the descent. Use your judgement here about your own experience and skills.
Eventually the gravel will turn to nice farm roads, and you will be able to enjoy your descent down to the lake. For the final descent down to the lake, you have two options.
The first option is the easiest from a navigation perspective, although it is longer. Simply follow the signage for the Bodensee-Königsee Radweg to Gmund, and from there descend to the lake. Follow the east shore of the lake to the town of Tegernsee.
Or, the most direct route requires a left turn at an unmarked intersection. There is a farmhouse on your right at this intersection. If you turn right and continue your descent, you will come to a marked intersection in just a few meters. If you turn left (signed for Oberbuchbergers, but you have to look over your shoulder to the left to see the sign), you climb slightly. Eventually the route levels off and the descends. Just stay on this road until you reach the main road that travels along the lake.
Cross the road and follow the bicycle path (on the sidewalk) into the town of Tegernsee. Continue through the town of Tegernsee, being extremely respectful of the pedestrian traffic. At the far end of Tegernsee is the large building, on the other side of a parking lot, and next to the church, is the Tegernsee Brewery.
