The Murnauer Moos south of Murnau is unique in Central Europe in terms of its size and unity as well as its flora and fauna. This tour leads on asphalt and solid field and gravel paths both along the Loisach and through the nature reserve. Discover rare animal and plant species and be inspired by the particularly attractive landscape.
