Things to do near the 'Ring...
I was just going thru some old photos of mine(hard copies, of course!) and came across a picture of me and an old girlfriend - as were were in Cochem(near the 'Ring) going up an old school "chair lift" for some "coffee & cake" ala German style. When in Rome... Cochem is a beautiful little town, near the 'Ring and nestled on the Mosel river. Everyone should visit the Mosel. Most tourists go to see the Rhine... bt as far as I am concerned... the Mosel is way more pretty. Especially driving from Cochem Westwards to Luxembourg. Seilbahn im Cochem... As you enter Cochem exiting the A48 Autobahn as you drive down the road(hill) there will be a small parkhaus on your left - as you enter the city. Park there and take the Seilbahn up to the top! There is a nice Cafe at the top. You can either walk your way down or take the chair lift. As you reach the top of the "lift" there is a guy that takes your photo.  http://www.cochemer-sesselbahn.de/index.php/chair-lift Cochem Sesselbahn (chair lift) Endertstraße 44, 56812 Cochem There is also a great Castle in this town... you can even stay there, since it's a hotel. Its a nice grand castle! BURG HOTEL COCHEM Moselpromenade 23, 56812 Cochem tel. +49 (0) 26 71 71 17 email: info@burghotel-cochem-model.de www.burghotel-cochem-mosel.de My suggestion would be to drive along the Mosel river. There is a nice country Bundesstrasse that runs along it. Make stop(s) at: Burg Eltz (Just North of Cochem) or Restaurant & Hotel Schloss Zell or maybe another nice area to visit on the Mosel is about an hour's drive South, called: Bernkastel Kues They(Bernkastel Kues) also have a old castle there, but its in ruins. Burg Eltz Burg-Eltz-Straße 1, 56294 Münstermaifeld Restaurant & Hotel Schloss Zell Schlossstraße 8A, 56856 Zell (Mosel) and/or continue onwards into Luxemburg or Trier.

Germany’s longest cable suspension bridge...
Just saw this today... I've not been here... but this bridge does look cool! While not near Munich... it is near Cochem! (Mosel river area - on the other side of Frankfurt, western area)  Opened only in October 2015, Geierlay is Germany’s longest suspension bridge, and it makes for a wonderful day's out in the stunning German countryside! The suspension bridge is 360m long and 100m high. Do you dare to cross it?! The walk to the bridge is 1,7 km or about a mile away. So bring some good comfy shoes! Besucherzentrum Geierlay Hängeseilbrücke (Geierlay Visitor Center) Kastellaun Straße 23 56290 Mörsdorf more info here... http://militaryingermany.com/43034-2...ampaign=buffer

Here is a video that a friend of mine(Mark) filmed in his M135i last weekend(March, 2016)... it will show you how nice of a road the Tatzelwurmstrasse is. Unfortunately Mark did not start off at Brannenburg - which is quite narrow and I feel the best part of the drive.
 Tatzelwurm Pass (Deutsche Alpenstrasse) with summer tires at about 3°C. Although the drive wasn't too spirited DSC was on heavy work nearly out of every turn... (indicated in the video overlay) Filmed with iPhone 6 OBD-2-Data captured by M Performance Drive Analyser https://drivedeck.de/driveanalyser/ Overlay data created with RaceRender 3.3.5a Ultimate http://racerender.com/RR3/Features.html Edited with Adobe Premiere Elements 12

Rossfeld Driving Experience 2k16 (Southern Germany)
Supercar Meeting Rossfeld Driving Experience 2k16 (Southern Germany)
Attachment 1477929 A friend of mine, markymark666 recently participated in a small super car/exotic car drive - thru the Bavarian Alps. Rossfeld Panoramastraße runs around Berchtesgaden area. For those of you who don't know... Berchtesgaden is the most Southern part of Germany. Driving this part of Germany is spectacular... and I thought it would make for a great ED road tour. So both Mark and I thought you guys might enjoy driving this road: Rossfeld Panoramastraße (or panorama street) Berchtesgaden is also where Hitler had his summer home and the infamous Eagles Nest(which he seldom used bc he was afraid heights and elevators). There is a museum there now(in Berchtesgaden) about the Nazi's in Berchtesgaden. Former Walker Hotel(US Forces/MWR) use to stand where the museum is located. In front of the Museum you can catch a bus ride to the Eagle's Nest. Parking is located behind the museum. I would also suggest to drive to near by "Ober Salzburg"(still in Germany) and visit the catacomb(s) tunnels under the "Zum Turken Hotel", a former Turkish barracks in the Ottemann empire times. The tunnels under the Zum Turken Hotel - are super creepy but really cool. Its like stepping back in time, in the bunkers. Attachment 1477930 Attachment 1477931 Attachment 1477932 Here is a map of where to drive... Attachment 1477933 and one of Mark's cool videos... Entering the private toll road(Maut): Rossfeldstrasse more info here on Mark's website... https://markymark666full.wordpress.c...thern-germany/

To be perfectly honest guys... I forgot that I had made this duplicate thread on Places to see in and around Munich while on ED.
Please checkout this thread over in the f80 forum. Its the one that I constantly try to update from time to time. There are way more places of interest in this "other" thread. Places to visit near Munich while on ED... https://f80.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh....php?t=1170588 Dackel
