The Short Simssee Loop starts in Stephanskirchen. For planning your trip, you might also consider Simssee and its surroundings as a nature destination, the Catholic branch church of St. Magdalena in Baierbach, and the art clock at Gocklwirt. Simssee and its surroundings form a habitat complex of statewide importance. The church is a listed monument, and the world’s largest art clock can be seen at Gocklwirt. These attractions offer different experiences. First, consider whether landscape, culture or a particular route should shape your stay. This also makes it easier to search for a holiday apartment in Stephanskirchen based on your specific travel interests.

Nature at Simssee

The habitat complex includes Simssee and its surroundings; its statewide importance gives the area a distinctive ecological character. This adds a nature-focused perspective to the landscape as a setting for excursions. If, on holiday, you want to consider not only individual destinations but also the character of a landscape, Simssee offers a clear focus. This perspective differs from the cultural attractions and leaves room to consciously make space for the landscape in your travel plans.

Culture: Church and Art Clock

The Catholic branch church of St. Magdalena in Baierbach is a listed monument and is classified as Late Gothic. Its historical classification makes it a specific cultural-history destination. The world’s largest art clock can be seen at Gocklwirt. The two cultural attractions are quite distinct: St. Magdalena is notable for its church building and Late Gothic character, while Gocklwirt features an extraordinary work of art. If you are interested in history and design, you can take these different aspects into account when choosing your daily destinations.

Routes for Different Plans

From the Short Simssee Loop, a detour along the Seeblickweg leads to the Baierbach lido. The Small Loop around Baierbach is about 7 km long; it passes through Stephanskirchen, Schömering, Högering, Kieling, Baierbach, Weinberg and Eitzing. If you are travelling with children, you can discuss together which of these suggestions matters most for the day. Route conditions may change; check them before setting out. A place on the route can serve as a starting point for planning your excursion.
