Andechs is a favorite of locals for good reason. With views of the Alps, a fine Baroque church and a bustling beer hall serving up some of the finest Bavarian dishes anywhere, it's easy to see why. The monk's home-brewed beer is world renowned and there's no better place to drink it than onsite. Hike back via beautiful Lake Ammersee and stop at the scenic lakeside Biergarten for one last beer.
