Hiking around Bavaria and the Alps with friends during fest season. Lots of Bavarian beer, and awesome hikes. Map of all the locations I travelled to during the trip: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1oqJOCsekuduvrTqsyFEivl04sAg&usp=sharing TOP TRAVEL TIPS: *Since Bavaria is not the easiest place to get around, we rented a car. There are cheap options for car rentals! It was 143 Euros for 8 days, but insurance was 150 Euros for that time too. Having a car allowed me to see more though in the 9 days I was in Germany. *If you have the means, renting a German car will simply be better and safer for the autobahn. *I recommend staying in the small towns as opposed to any of the big cities. The experience of being able to walk around these towns is so much more memorable than walking around a big city. *Go to as many Bavarian towns as you can. They are all amazing in there own way! *When you get sick of Germany food, which will happen, the Italian food there is surprisingly amazing, being that they are so close to Northern Italy. *Bring hiking clothes. Hiking is one of the best activities to do in the Alps during summer time. *Also bring a rain jacket. It rains for a small part of the day almost every day year round in Bavaria. *Look up the fest schedule of the Bavarian Towns. Each town has their own fest, so it's great to experience something more local.
