Simssee: A Hidden Bavarian Lake for Mid-summer day. Summer in Germany part 4

Sometimes the best summer days are the simplest ones—just a train ride, a walk, and a lake waiting at the end. Rosenheim was my first stop, a small Bavarian town with pastel-colored buildings, quiet streets, and a relaxed vibe. I wandered around, grabbed a coffee, had a lunch, and just let the slow pace of the town sink in. But the real plan? Simssee. 🚶♂️ The Journey to the Lake After soaking in the charm of Rosenheim, I made my way towards Simssee, a lesser-known but absolutely stunning lake. The walk there was peaceful—passing through fields, small villages, and that classic Bavarian countryside view. No rush, just the sound of nature and the occasional cyclist passing by. 🌊 Summer by the Water As soon as I reached the lake, I knew it was the perfect midsummer spot. The water was clear and calm, with just a few locals swimming, paddleboarding, or lying on the grass. I kicked off my shoes, waded in, and let the cool water erase the summer heat. Pure bliss. 🔥 Simple Pleasures: Sun, Food & Sunset A lakeside midsummer wouldn’t be complete without good food and a cold beer. Found a quiet spot, had a small picnic, and just enjoyed the moment. As the sun dipped lower, the whole lake turned golden, reflecting the sky in a way that made it impossible to look away. ✨ The Perfect Summer Escape No grand plans, no big crowds—just a slow summer day, a beautiful lake, and time to enjoy it. Simssee felt like a secret spot, a place to unwind and just be present. Sometimes, that’s all you need. #simssee #rosenheim #midsummervibes #germanytravel #slowtravel
