Laketown in the Alpine Foothills

From Munich, you can take the BOB train (Bayrische Oberland Bahn) into the alps, go skiing for the day and take the train back to town. Thanks to global warming, skiing isn't an option this winter, so I went for a hike. On the advice of a classmate, I visited Tegernsee, an hour south of Munich.

Walking in the mountains is a simple integral part of the culture here. At the top of the hike was a restaurant, where I sat next to four old ladies, who were drinking beer and discussing their hiking boot designs.
