Whatever the season, a boat trip on Lake Chiemsee gives you the opportunity to enjoy the magnificent views of the surrounding Chiemgau mountains and islands. You can also travel to the two islands:
- Herreninsel
Once on Herreninsel, you can visit the largest fairy tale castle that the fairy tale King Ludwig II of Bavaria built. Herrenchiemsee Castle also hosts a range of cultural and music events.
- Fraueninsel
The nearby Fraueninsel invites guests to discover its shaded beer gardens in the summer, and a lovely walk through the small "Fischerdorf" fishing village.
You can reach them from
- Seebruck
- Chieming
- Übersee
- Prien
- Gstadt
- Bernau
Special tickets are available for island round trips, which allow you to arrange your holiday in a way that best suits you.
The Chiemsee Schifffahrt, which offers boat trips on Lake Chiemsee, was founded by Joseph Feßler in 1848 and has a long tradition.
The fleet of today:
- comprises several boats and ships of various sizes
- provides space for up to 1,000 passengers
- contents the historical paddle steamer from 1926, which is especially popular amongst guests and can be hired for private events like all other boats and ships
