Using the DB Navigator App, we purchase tickets and board an EuroCity train to travel south to the lakeside resort of Prien am Chiemsee. Prien seems like stepping into a picturesque postcard with beautiful lakeside views with a backdrop of the Bavarian Alps. It’s not just about the scenery, though. Prien offers a perfect blend of nature and history in a relatively peaceful setting.
Within less than an hour, we arrive at the Prien train station. From the station, it seems the narrow-gauge, steam-powered train isn’t chugging today, so we board Bus 481 for the mile ride to the Prien/Stock Harbor. From its stop, we walk the short distance to our lodgings at the Garden-Hotel Reinhart.
