5th stage - From Chiemsee in the Alps to the Bavarian capital Munich
Finally, we can be glad that the extraordinary stop has had an end, the borders will open and every globe-trotter is looking forward joyfully. Now, it means to pack the suitcase and to intensively pursue the pent up wanderlust.
But, we start slowly. The newly gained peace is too good, than we will immediately enter into the fray. The Pack Easy bird of passage knows the ideal way back into life of discovery and leads us to the start in the

Not only at its shores, but also on the Chiemsee there are many things to discover. The three islands of the
Nearby is the uninhabited Krautinsel. In the Middle Age's , vegetables and herbs have been cultivated and until today it is used during summer as cattle pasture.

Back to the shores, we are looking forward to think about all the impressions of the day and to finish the mild summer evening with a fresh drink. For this, there is no nicer place than the Sundowner beach bar of the Chiemgauhof in Übersee. The landing stage, the sandy beach in its natural stage, the bar or the different wooden decks offer enough places for cosy and pleasant get-togethers. Candle lights, fire bowls and torches are bathing the bar even after sunset in a golden light and form the ideal scenery for relaxing.

Now we will leave the Chiemsee in the western direction and stop after a short travel at new shores. Nearby the Simssee you will find an enchanted art nouveau mansion, whose historical appearance is in good contrast to the innovative ideas of its inhabitant. The mansion is the working place of the label "Lieblingsteil-Upcycling Fashion". The creator, Gudrun Weber, in her nice workshop has devoted herself totally to the "Upcycling". Her passion is to work with high quality materials. Out of old favourite pieces, she is creating new ones and is putting all on sustainability. So, for example, a pair of old jeans will serve to make a casual Dirndl and out of remnants the matching apron. Gudrun's richness of ideas and her flexibility have been decisive that she was one of the first in Bavaria to let sew masks out of cotton and linen, which have been given as well as sold.

The former pleasure boat transferred in the fifties innumerable passengers over the Ammersee, until in 2017 it was saved from being scrapped and was changed into a cultural meeting place. Today the impressive boat is installed on the train bridge between the big market and the abattoir.
