The climate of Bavaria (Germany)
Bavaria is a fairytale like region. Not only are the landscape and
scenery beautiful, so are the castles built by Ludwig II of Bavaria.
The castles of Neuschwanstein, Linderhof and Herrenchiemsee look
like castles from a fairytale. Many lakes and mountainous regions
can be found in Bavaria. This region is very suitable for walking
and enjoying the views. The climate depends on the altitude you are
at. The valleys have a moderate maritime climate. Winters are mild
and slightly influenced by the sea. However, large amounts of
snowfall are not uncommon. On top of the mountains it is much
colder. During the winter the higher located regions are suitable
for winter sports.

More climate information
Climate figures are very useful but don’t present a general impression
of the climate and the eventual weather circumstances within a certain
period. The figures don’t always reflect the chance of wintry weather,
extreme heat or hurricanes. That is why we offer useful extra climate
information for each month of the year:
