Around Munich there are many wonderful and varied destinations for families with kids.
From Munich, you have the opportunity to go to countless destinations with kids; whether in the city or in the surrounding area of Munich. We show you the best destinations with kids for your next family day.
The most beautiful child-friendly bathing lakes
Munich is surrounded by many beautiful lakes. Especially in summer, the bathing lakes offer a welcome change from the (usually crowded) open-air beaches in Munich. We have written down for you which are our favorite places:
Lake Starnberg and Wörthsee both offer particularly shallow entrances. There the kids can play in the water and also the water is warmed up faster. Of course, there are also wonderful excursion destinations at Lake Tegernsee or Lake Ammersee. In addition, we have written together the most beautiful playgrounds, with panoramic views for parents, at the lakes.
Cool hiking tours around Munich with kids
Of course, Munich’s local mountains are also popular destinations for excursions with kids. Even with small kids you can start your first hiking attempts. However, the hiking routes should be of an age-appropriate length. Kids are happy if there is a special highlight waiting for them at the destination. Either a great nature playground or cows that you can watch on the pasture. We can recommend for example the beautiful Käser Alm for the first hikes with kids. Here you can find more hikes with kids in Upper Bavaria.
Beer garden visit with kid
If you don’t plan on long car rides, then a beer garden visit is also a successful outing with kids. We think beer gardens are a perfect alternative to a child-friendly restaurant. Kids usually love the great playgrounds at beer gardens. Here are our top 10 kid-friendly beer gardens in and around Munich.
Child friendly museum for a rainy day
If the weather is bad, there are also many museums you can visit with kids. For the kids, the exhibits often feel like big indoor playgrounds. They can run around, explore things and often do interactive activities. The largest and most famous child-friendly museum in Munich is the Deutsches Museum. Here the kids can play explorers and discoverers. But there are also 2 offshoots, the Verkehrsmuseum and the Flugwerft. These are also wonderful for kids.
