Day 1

Depart your hometown and fly to Munich!

Day 2

Your Joshua Expeditions guide will meet you at the airport in Munich then travel with you by train to Lenggries, Germany, which is nestled along the Isar River in southern Bavaria close to the Austrian border. After settling into the youth hotel, the group will relax from its long journey by going to one of Germany’s premier indoor swimming pool/waterslide complexes. After hours of slip-sliding away, you will return to the hotel to relax and share dinner and devotions.

Day 3

Following breakfast the group will begin the day with a brisk walk along the river to board the rafts! You will spend several hours rafting down the Isar River into the town of Bad Toelz where you will have some time to explore and grab some lunch! What comes next is up to you. Your group will have the option of two very uniquely German activities: riding bull karts (3 wheeled karts) down a mountain or going for a ride on an alpine slide. Later, you will enjoy dinner then head back to the hotel for devotions and discussion.

Day 4

An early morning breakfast will be followed by a bus ride on a special mountain bus. From Lenggries the group will travel to Eng, Austria, where the next two days will begin with hikes from the Alpengasthof hotel. Today you will hike about 3 hours up to the Lamsenjoch Hut for some of the most amazing views of the valley below. After lunch at the hut, the group will return to the hotel to clean up and gather for dinner. Devotions and discussion will close the day.

Day 5

This morning will begin with a hike to the Falken Hut, a 3-hour hike into the heart of the Austrian Alps. You will stay at the Falken Hut for lunch before heading back down to Eng. You will have a chance to relax and enjoy dinner at the hotel before sharing a time of devotions and discussion. A spontaneous ping pong tournament could follow.

Day 6

On this final day of your tour the group will return to Munich for a full day of sightseeing. After a brief stop at the hotel, you will head to the Munich City Center for a walking tour of the historical downtown area. You will visit the Frauenkirche, Marienplatz, Hofbrauhaus and Viktualienmarkt, and there will be time for a little shopping after pausing for lunch. Later, the group will stop by Odeonsplatz to learn about the history of this famous square, and you may even encounter a Starbucks or two along the way! As you make your way back to the hotel you will enjoy dinner at the local castle before concluding your trip with devotions and group discussion.

Day 7

Fly back to the states!
