Go to the Christmas markets
All of us love a Christmas market, proper? Properly, so do the folks of Munich! In December you’ll discover greater than 20 Christmas markets all around the metropolis. The biggest and most well-known is the Christkindlmarkt on Marienplatz, one in every of Munich’s well-known squares. The historical past of the Christkindlmarkt dates again to the 14th century, albeit below completely different names and areas. (Yeah, does that also rely then? Both method, it’s very outdated!)
You’ll be able to’t miss this Christmas market. An 80 ft Christmas tree towers above the quite a few stalls with conventional picket Christmas decorations, handmade German Christmas playing cards, mulled wine (that is the place I got here throughout white mulled wine for the primary time, and the second time, and the third time…), adorned lebkuchen (gingerbread) in all sizes, and meals. Oh, the meals!
Extra about Bavarian meals later, however you will see so many conventional Christmas meals that you would be able to’t strive all of them. The meals is usually filling, so include an urge for food. Ones it is best to positively strive at a Christmas market are:
- Stollen – German stollen are dense loaves of bread, with dried fruit and nuts. You should purchase slices of them, typically lined with powdered sugar, or purchase an entire loaf to take house. A few of them have almond paste in them, which is wonderful!
- Schneeballen – This interprets as snowballs. They’re ball-shaped pastries lined in sugar. You’ll find them with all types of toppings. Lined in chocolate, nuts or cinnamon, to call just a few. (Simply please, please don’t eat yellow snowballs!)

- Sternenplatzl am Rindermarkt – The polar reverse of Christkindlmarkt when it comes to dimension. It is a small market, however stuffed with environment. The 40 ft Schlemmerpyramide is the middle of the market. It’s a spinning tower with collectible figurines, that appears prefer it jumped straight out of a Christmas fairytale.
Journey the Christmas tram
Expertise Christmas on the transfer! The Christkindlt Tram is a particular Christmas tram that you would be able to journey. It departs from Sendlinger Tor – which is a surprising outdated metropolis gate – and takes you across the outdated city with its Christmas lights and decorations. If it snows, this journey is even higher! It’s like using by way of an enormous wintery snow globe! (With out the water in fact, as a result of that might make this tram journey a merciless expertise! Nobody is shaking you both. Don’t fear!)
The tram journey takes about half an hour and takes you again to Sendlinger Tor. Undoubtedly an expertise I can advocate. The environment is nice contained in the tram, with music and Christmas lights. Oh, I forgot one of the best factor about it…you’re allowed to deliver your mug of mulled wine on board!
This tram journey is extraordinarily widespread and it solely prices just a few Euros, so count on to queue for a bit. It leaves each half-hour and runs between the tip of November and Christmas. Purchase your ticket whenever you get on the tram.
Strive a number of the greatest winter-warming Bavarian meals
Each time I eat German meals, and particularly Bavarian meals, I can’t assist however suppose it’s simply good for both actually chilly days, or to go together with consuming huge quantities of beer (A conventional Bavarian breakfast is veal sausage with mustard and a beer, as a hangover treatment. Want I say extra?). Bavarian meals is usually meaty, stuffed with carbs, or each. Regardless of which conventional meals you tuck into in Munich in winter, it would fill you up and preserve you heat. It’s the kind of meals it’s essential to lie down after! (Or possibly I’m simply extremely lazy). Both method, it’s very tasty and satisfying!
5 Bavarian meals you should strive in Munich in winter:
- Münchner Weisswurst – This pale veal and pork sausage with scrumptious herbs is the satisfaction of Munich. You already know German Bratwurst, proper? For my part, a weisswurst with a little bit of candy mustard is even higher! You eat them from the grill, on a roll or by itself. Strive a Bavarian breakfast – Weisswurst boiled in salty water, with a little bit of mustard and a pretzel (and a beer, severely!). I attempted one of the best weisswurst at Gaststätte Großmarkthalle.
- Leberkäse – This interprets to liver cheese (nonetheless feeling okay?). The humorous factor is that there’s no cheese on this concoction. No liver both. (Sure, I used to be as puzzled as you at the moment are.) Simply strive it! It’s mainly a meatloaf made with various kinds of meat. It’s usually served sliced on a semmelbrötchen (crusty roll) and completely scrumptious. Zum Franziskaner on Opernplatz has top-of-the-line leberkäse I’ve tried!
- Spätzle – Munich’s model of mac and cheese! Spätzle are noodles constituted of egg, flour and salt. They don’t need to relaxation, like pasta, in order that they make them contemporary and cook dinner them. They’re served with a powerful cheese sauce, herbs and fried onion and are a well-liked staple in Munich in winter. Zum Brunnstein serves cheese spätzle with mushrooms and schnitzel like no different!
- Pretzel – You already know the bow-shaped little crunchy snacks you get known as pretzels? The standard pretzels from Munich sh*t throughout these dry salty issues. Bavarian pretzels are large, like the scale of a plate. They’re encrusted with rock salt, crunchy on the skin and mushy and chewy on the within. I’ll have one any day, and so do the folks of Munich! You’ll find them wherever, usually freshly baked.
- Obazda – Oh-what-da? Obazda is a Bavarian cheese unfold that goes extremely nicely with pretzels. I used to love pretzels on their very own, till I attempted this! Obazda is made by mixing two-thirds of sturdy cheese – like camembert – with one-third of butter. It’s then spiced with sizzling paprika powder, salt and pepper…and beer (You’ve acquired to like German beer tradition!). Eat the unfold with pretzels and a beer on the aspect. You’ll be able to order it in most Bavarian eating places.
Have a beer or two on the Hofbräuhaus
You will have discovered by now that individuals in Munich like beer. Dwelling of the world-famous Oktoberfest, this metropolis has beer working by way of its veins. Common native breweries are Paulaner, Augustiner, Löwenbrau and Hofbrau. Guess which one is served on the Hofbräuhaus? The Hofbräuhaus is a well-known beer corridor come restaurant like you’ll solely discover in Munich.
Massive beer halls downstairs, smaller rooms upstairs, all with a picket inside. It’s so heat and comfortable in winter. The large halls nearly really feel like a medieval feast. Lengthy tables, entire roasted chickens and pork knuckles, liter-glasses of beer. The primary time I walked in right here I noticed an older woman mendacity on the ground who very clearly had method an excessive amount of beer! Fairly wild!
If that is all a bit too wild for you, I might reserve a desk in one of many smaller rooms upstairs, the place it feels way more like being in a restaurant. In order for you an Oktoberfest-like expertise, put in your lederhosen or dirndl and go to the halls! You may also e-book a tour of the Hofbräuhaus, to dive deeper into the historical past of the beer corridor and beer making, and revel in a beer with it!
Have a Go at Curling on a Frozen Canal
A weighted stone, a goal, utmost focus, a wonderfully measured glide, launch…and folks with brooms sweeping the ice in entrance of the stone. With regards to sports activities, it doesn’t get extra thrilling than this, proper? (Sarcasm mode OFF) Okay, curling may not be essentially the most thrilling factor on the earth, however have you ever ever tried it? Didn’t suppose so! Life is all about new experiences, so give it a shot.
Curling in Munich in winter is definitely actually thrilling! It’s all in regards to the location. The Schlossgartenkanal, a big canal that runs round and comes off Nymphenburg Palace, will not be very deep. This implies it usually freezes over in winter! As soon as it does, the information spreads shortly round Munich and folks soar on the alternative to play on the straight, 1/2 mile lengthy ice rink.
The frozen canal is used for strolling, ice skating and ice hockey too, however curling is hottest. Rent a curling stone, seize a sizzling mug of mulled wine and have a recreation on one of many 40 pop-up curling lanes!
Heat Up in a Spa
Munich in winter could be bitter chilly, so chilling in a sizzling sauna is a superb thought! Town affords some nice services at a good higher value. Pampering your self in a spa and sauna is often fairly costly, however not in Munich. There are two large complexes within the metropolis, known as Nordbad (North Pool) and Südbad (South Pool, that are each run by town council (and each named by the identical inventive genius). Each Nordbad and Südbad mix reasonably priced public swimming swimming pools with excellent saunas and aromatherapy rooms.
The saunas and heated indoor and outside swimming swimming pools -some with views of the city- are a intelligent technique to really feel heat and relaxed on the similar time. All it’s essential to pay for is $7.00 for a single entry that provides you entry to all services. Please notice that you’re anticipated to be bare in saunas in Germany. Don’t fear, it would solely really feel unusual for five minutes, you then’re used to it. (Simply please, don’t soar into the swimming pool bare.)
The most effective saunas in Munich are:
- Nordbad – For over 80 years, Nordbad has been the place to go for a swim or sauna session for the local people of Munich. Swim exterior whereas the snow falls in your hair (or head, in the event you don’t have hair).
- Südbad – The youthful sister of Nordbad. Südbad doesn’t really feel as grand as Nordbad, however it provides you an identical expertise in a calmer and smaller bundle. I like the indoor pool’s glass wall, so it feels such as you’re exterior (however with out a freezing chilly head).
- Müller’sches Volksbad – This one’s particular. I used to be amazed by the Artwork Nouveau constructing, which is over 100 years outdated. The Volksbad is a baroque expertise, with two swimming pools, a Finnish sauna, steam room and a Roman-Irish sweat bathtub (They could wish to rename this one! So many questions!)
Get a birds-eye view of Munich in winter
In the event you may teleport straight into Munich and stroll across the metropolis, you wouldn’t have any thought in regards to the stunning environment of this metropolis. You don’t actually see the Alps whenever you’re within the metropolis, however they’re proper there. To see them, it’s essential to go up. Good day, Olympic Tower!
You’ll find this needle-like tower in Olympiapark. With 291 meters (954 ft), that is the tallest constructing in Munich. There’s a viewing platform at 181 meters (593 ft) and it takes you 4 months to climb up…No I’m joking, there’s an elevator and it takes you there in 30 seconds. That’s quick! (Approach too quick for me, however I belief in German engineering).
I’ve been up right here in summer season and winter, however I believe the winter view is greatest. Particularly when town is roofed in snow, with the white countryside within the north, and the majestic mountains of the Alps within the south. It makes you are feeling all Christmassy and comfortable (and chilly, very chilly!). There’s a revolving restaurant below the viewing platform. A! Revolving! Restaurant! It does a 360º flip in 50 minutes. Have I already talked about that I like German engineering?
Climb up Peterskirche
If the Olympic Tower is a bit too excessive for you, or in the event you simply really feel like climbing 300 wonky picket steps for the hell of it, go up St. Peter’s Church. It’s a little bit of a climb, however when you’re on the roof of the church, you’ll be handled to some spectacular metropolis views.
Trying over the standard orange roof tops, in winter you’ll be able to see Marienplatz, with all of the lights from the Christmas market. It’s even higher when it snows, and the orange roofs have a white dusting on them. It provides you an thought of the structure of town. You may also clearly see that this well-known sq. is the middle of Munich, the place folks have been gathering because the twelfth century!
Climbing to the highest of Peterskirche solely prices just a few Euros. You’ll be able to solely pay in money, so preserve just a few cash in your pocket for this exercise.
Have an ice bathtub within the river Isar
Have you ever ever walked previous a river on an ice-cold winter’s day pondering: “I ponder what it appears like to leap in proper now?” Then this exercise is for you! It includes freezing chilly water, you plunging in, and balls of metal. What it doesn’t contain, is a wetsuit to maintain you heat. At all times needed to do that? (Yeah, me neither). Have an ice bathtub within the Isar!
The individuals who set up this exercise in Munich in winter are known as Munich Scorching Springs, and I can’t consider something extra sarcastic on this world! This ice-bathing lot will information you thru your chilly dip. It begins with some respiration workout routines and so they provides you with recommendation on tips on how to put together. Then they’ll go in with you.
Munich Scorching Springs is a group in Munich that meets each Sunday morning in winter at 11:00, for a refreshing ice-bath. You’ll find extra data on their web site, the place you will discover a telephone quantity to hitch their WhatsApp group. That is just for skilled freeze-a-holics. If it’s your first time, they’ll set up a one-on-one with you and an teacher. All it’s essential to do is ship them an e mail to ask about costs and appointments.
Folks have been ice-bathing for hundreds of years and it’s believed to strengthen your immune system, show you how to burn extra energy and relieve stress. I personally suppose it simply makes you are feeling f*cking chilly, however every to their very own. It should really feel wonderful when it’s performed!
Go snowboarding on Zugspitze
Munich is a particular metropolis, because it’s situated so near the pre-Alps. This implies you’ll be able to keep within the largest metropolis within the south of Germany, and nonetheless go snowboarding for a day. So in the event you’re planning on staying a bit longer in Munich with a while spare to discover exterior town, I can actually advocate going to Zugspitze.
Zugspitze is true on the German-Austrian border and is the closest ski resort to Munich. You could be there in about two hours from town, by practice and cable automobile. There are literally three ski areas with their very own community of ski lifts: Zugspitze, Garmisch-Traditional and Wank (I want I used to be joking!). Or Mount Wank if you would like the longer model. The cable automobile as much as Wank is named the Wankbahn. There’s additionally a Wank Restaurant (Okay, I’ll cease now).
Zugspitze has all of the services you’ll be able to count on from an enormous ski resort, so you’ll be able to rent tools and discover eating places and bars in every single place. The views of the encompassing mountains are breathtaking. I want I may say snowboarding close to Munich in winter is wank, however that might be each a lie and a nasty joke.
Go for a winter stroll in Englischer Garten
Englischer Garten (English Backyard) is an enormous park proper within the metropolis. It’s greater than Central Park in NYC! It has two well-known landmarks. The Monopteros is a 50 ft temple on a hill. The Chinesischer Turm, is a Chinese language tower that appears like a tall pagoda. There’s additionally a Japanese tea home! As you’ll be able to think about, the grassy areas round these monuments are good for picnics in summer season.
Nonetheless, I want to go to this park in winter, when the grass and footpaths are lined in snow. The hill the Monopteros sits on, all of the sudden turns into a downhill sled monitor. Did you not pack a sled in your suitcase? (I believed you packed for Munich in winter! Poor effort!) I discovered a plastic bag will do the trick! There’s a small however beautiful Christmas market across the Chinese language tower, which is lit up for the event.
Seize a mulled wine and go for a stroll alongside the small lake within the park. Or throughout it, because it typically freezes over in winter. Watch folks surf within the river that flows by way of the park, even in winter. There’s a fast within the river, the place you’ll be able to surf on the spot. A bit like a type of wave machines, however pure. Give it a strive in the event you’re courageous with this tour which features a surfboard and bodysuit. (A minimum of in the event you fall in, you’ll be able to scrap the ice-bathing exercise off your record!).
See Munich’s Glockenspiel Present
It doesn’t matter what you’re doing in Munich in winter, be sure to’re on Marienplatz at 11:00 am or 12:00 pm to see the glockenspiel. This well-known glockenspiel is within the clock tower of the Rathaus on Marienplatz. It’s a mechanical present with bells taking part in tunes and shifting collectible figurines. The Munich glockenspiel is greater than 100 years outdated.
At 11:00 am and midday it begins taking part in 4 tunes and the collectible figurines begin shifting. The tunes change each month. In December it performs Christmas tunes, like Oh Tannenbaum. It provides an additional sprinkle of Christmas to the Christkindlmarkt.
Go to Cinderella’s fortress
Have you ever watched Cinderella? (Is there anybody who hasn’t?) Then you should know she lives in a fortress that appears a bit like – nicely – Cinderella’s fortress. One other fortress that appears like Cinderella’s fortress is Neuschwanstein (or New Swan Stone). Okay, let’s cease translating German names into English because it doesn’t make any sense!
Coincidence? Probably not, as Walt Disney’s inspiration for Cinderella’s fortress was Neuschwanstein! I visited this stunning fortress in winter, when the panorama was lined in snow, and it simply seemed completely spectacular! This fortress was constructed on the ruins of Schwanstein by Ludwig II, king of Bavaria. He needed to construct a fortress on this stunning spot, within the romantic model of outdated German knights’ castles. It was completed in 1880.
Now, Neuschwanstein Citadel will not be precisely in Munich. You’ll discover it in Schwangau, which is about two hours by practice from Munich. I do know that’s not across the nook, however whenever you’re in Munich in winter and you’ve got time for a day tour, I believe you shouldn’t miss out on this one.
You’ll be able to e-book a day tour from Munich, or get tickets for Neuschwanstein Citadel and make your method there by practice your self. Take the practice from Munich to Füssen, then bus 73 or 78 to Hohenschwangau.
Expertise Fasching
In the event you go to Munich in February, you’re in luck! Fasching is what the folks of Munich name their carnival. There are small, usually enclosed occasions all year long, however in February all of it culminates into large road occasions.
There’s a large open-air occasion known as Narrisch within the metropolis middle, with music levels on Marienplatz and Karlsplatz-Stachus. See some dance and music teams carry out right here. On Shrove Tuesday one other large occasion takes place: the dance of the market ladies. That is on the Viktualienmarkt meals market (you’ll be able to e-book a gourmand meals tour right here if that’s your factor). Usually the stalls promote fruit and greens, however for this event they promote beer, glowing wine and mulled wine.
The parade of the Damische Ritter (Foolish Knights) takes place on a Sunday in mid-February. This large carnival parade is a procession with floats, dressed-up folks, dance, music and (that is Munich in any case) a lot of beer and Bavarian meals! Oh Munich, what a unbelievable metropolis you’re!
The place to Keep in Munich in Winter
Unquestionably, one of the best space to remain in Munich in winter is in Altstadt, the outdated city. It’s one of the best location, since you’re proper within the coronary heart of town, and you may simply stroll to the well-known sights and squares of town (it’s additionally a really brief stumble from the beer corridor to your resort.). Staying in a first-rate location comes at a value, though Munich motels are fairly reasonably priced in comparison with most well-known European cities. Nonetheless, it’s greatest to remain simply exterior of Altstadt, which may prevent cash, plus you’re nonetheless within the metropolis centre.
Listed below are some suggestions for motels close to or in Altstadt in Munich:
- Motel One Sendlinger Tor – There are just a few of those motels in several areas in Munich. Usually I don’t advocate chains, however these motels will not be too costly and really look nice inside, like a pleasant boutique resort. The one in Sendlinger Tor is closest to the Previous City. Rooms begin at round $120 an evening.
- Metropolis Resort Lux – If you wish to be proper within the metropolis centre – and I imply a stone’s throw from Marienplatz and the Hofbräuhaus beer corridor – that is good for you! It will probably get a bit noisy, however no less than you’re proper in the midst of it. The resort is comfy and the restaurant and bar have one of many coolest designs I’ve seen. Rooms begin at round $110 an evening.
- Resort am Markt – Have you learnt these motels that aren’t very memorable, however the rooms are clear and cozy? Resort am Markt at Viktualienmarkt is a type of (I imply this in a pleasant method). It’s a resort that’s good for a metropolis journey, with out making an attempt too laborious. Location is prime, too! Costs from $100 per room per night time.
