Close to the German Alps is Prien am Chiemsee, part of the city of Rosenheim, from which it sits 10 miles outside of its centre. It lies adjacent to Chiemsee lake, or the Bavarian Sea as the locals call it, whose water is unfettered and pure thanks to the local government only allowing electric powered boats to use the lake since 1909. Prien am Chiemsee hotels are excellent value for money and most are scattered around the edge of the lake, offering superb views in an idyllic setting. For those who stay away from the lake, the town's green tram pleasantly transports visitors to the lake's pier. The island of Chiemsee is a short boat-ride from the shore, and once here, visitors can discover the unfinished castle of Ludwig II and its peaceful grounds. Activities in Prien am Chiemsee revolve around the lake, where visitors have the chance to unwind and take part in a spot of fishing. There are a number of spas and golf courses which offer world-class facilities in relaxing surroundings. Although there are pleasant eateries in Prien am Chiemsee, visitors can head further into Rosenheim for a wider selection of restaurants and to experience the city's modest nightlife.
