    This is a beautiful spot on the Chiemsee lake. The scenery is simply stunning. This island is an awesome place to visit. There is a veil of bucolic idyll that covers the whole place. It is an incredibly picturesque sight. Should you be in the area, definitely make a visit to the lake a top priority. There is a regular ferry service and there are plenty of places where you can go hiking or cycling. Definitely, a must visit destination!

    Go to Man island for a day off museums and tours, then come here to enjoy the multitude of dining options. Lovely island community and historic church. The Abbey is a nice place to stay, but you can only stay as part of a seminar group. Has a slight spider problem

    This is on a lovely island and the boat ride across is very scenic. Ample space here for sitting alongside the lake and swimming. There's a number of bars/restaurants but they can get very busy. As with everything in this area, you must allow ample time to be served. Lovely island, well worth a visit.

    Super beautiful place for a great day trip amidst Mountain view and lake. The Museum was great and ship ride adds a lot of fun.

    Heavenly place to retreat from worldly troubles. Some villagers and cafe bar gave some earthly feeling. Misty lake and distant mountains make live painting.

    This is a must see, go there by boat and spend a few hours on the island. Walk around and have a coffee or bite and and a drink. Great spot in summer.

    An interesting mix between a religious and a commercial place.

  • 5/5 Chris G. 5 years ago on Google
    I think doesn't get much more beautiful. Also a wonderful experience to see the many little shops and the active church with island community is fantastic.

👍👍 There might be some truth to the Augustiner Chorherrenstift museum not being quite as overwhelming as the parlance but that is more or less what is to be expected.
