Operating year round, Chiemsee Ballooning offer perhaps the best possible view of the state, taking you high into the sky over the Alpine foothills. A Champagne balloon ‘baptism’ begins proceedings, before a 60-90 minute flight. With the peaks of the Alps pricking the horizon to one side, and the rolling green pastures of Bavaria to the other, it’s not difficult to see why a balloon ride is touted as one of life’s unforgettable experiences. For the better panorama, visit in the colder months, where the humidity is less impacting on the view.
