Unterwossen

Few towns in Bavaria have a history as closely tied to gliding as Unterwössen. Set in the Achental valley beneath Hochgern in the Chiemgau Alps, it has long been associated with Unterwössen Airfield and the German Alpine Gliding School. Mountain air currents above the valley support this enduring aviation tradition, giving the community an identity distinct from that of a conventional Alpine resort. Rural hamlets and meadows surround the settlement, with routes leading into the Chiemgau mountains; Lake Chiemsee lies farther north.
