Attractions in and around Bodenmais
Bodenmais: Glas, Silberberg und Arber-Panorama
Bodenmais is the best-known resort village of the Bavarian Forest – framed by the Großer Arber and the Silberberg, whose tunnels once yielded ore and today fascinate as a show mine. Add the glassblowing tradition that makes the village a centre of the Glass Road.
Family-run houses are the heart of its hospitality: the Bodenmaiser Hof and the Bayerischer Hof stand for upmarket wellness hotels, while guesthouses and pensions – from the Ferienhaus Bergwald via the Gästehaus Biggi to the Pension auf der Wies – form the down-to-earth core. Holiday flats like the Sunnwies give families plenty of space at a small price.
The Rißloch waterfalls, Lake Arbersee and the Bretterschachten cross-country trails lie practically outside the door. Book directly with the host and the stay is commission-free – with the bonus tip on which weekday the glassworks let you watch the blowers at work.
