Hausham – Nature, Culture and Culinary Delights

Hausham is located right between Tegernsee and Schliersee and is a starting point for activities in the Tegernsee-Schliersee Alpine region. Local attractions range from the nature discovery trail and cross-country ski trails to mining history, church music and culinary experiences. If you are looking for a hotel in Hausham, you can base your choice on whether outdoor activities, local culture or culinary experiences are your priorities during your stay.

Nature and Outdoor Activities in Hausham

At the nature discovery trail on Huberspitz, visitors can explore the local natural environment and mountain forest in Hausham. Exploration and scavenger hunt booklets accompany a two- to three-hour nature experience, which is particularly suited to school groups. The elevation gain is around 300 metres, and the trail is not wheelchair accessible. When planning, both the time required and elevation gain, as well as accessibility, are important considerations. Check whether these requirements suit your tour.

For winter sports, Hausham has a cross-country ski trail about six kilometres long. It runs from the start at the central sports facility, past the cemetery and Agatharied fire station, to the Haslrain ascent. The trail can be used for both classic and skating styles; its difficulty level is easy to moderate. A trail between Hausham and Agatharied has four access points. One is at the sports facility or Regenbogen Kindergarten in Hausham. As seasonal grooming may vary, check the current conditions before your visit.

Mining History and Culture

The Hausham Mining Museum illustrates the community’s mining past with mining tools, mine maps, fossil and mineral collections, pictures and mining lamps. It also features numerous detailed models and an original depiction of a mining site. If you would like to visit the museum, check the latest visitor information in advance.

The Parish Church of St. Anton houses the Koulen organ, built in 1911, with 32 stops. Church concerts have been held there regularly since November 2013. The family-friendly folk festival and Christkindlmarkt also have a regular place in the annual events calendar around the parish church. Music and recurring events in Hausham’s annual calendar come together at this venue.

The Art and Culture House hosts changing exhibitions. If you are interested in a particular exhibition, it is worth checking the current programme. The exhibitions thus add another cultural offering to the other experiences in town, with content that changes over time.

Culinary Delights and Regional Plants

The LANTENHAMMER Erlebnisdestillerie in Hausham offers an interactive, multimedia, self-guided tour through the world of fine spirits. The tour includes a film and a tasting. Claudia Bernhardt’s regular herb walks at the Moosrainer pasture focus on something different. There, participants learn about native trees and how local wild herbs are used as food and for enjoyment, in cosmetics and for other purposes. You can choose between a tour focused on spirits and tasting, and a walk featuring botanical knowledge and a variety of uses for plants.
