Sinzing offers two different starting points for planning a trip: golf and hiking on the Burgensteig Trail in the Tal der Schwarzen Laber. You can first decide which activity you would like to shape your stay.

Golf and the Burgensteig Trail in Sinzing

The Golf & Yachtclub Gut Minoritenhof in Sinzing has an 18-hole course and a 9-hole course. The Burgensteig Trail in the Tal der Schwarzen Laber runs between Sinzing and Beratzhausen. One route starts at Sinzing railway station and runs mostly westward through the town along the Laber. Check current route information before setting off.

The differences are clear: golf offers a choice of two course formats, while the Burgensteig Trail’s starting point and route provide guidance for planning your hike. The trail extends beyond Sinzing in the direction of Beratzhausen. This lets you treat the route as a focus in its own right, rather than equating it with the golf offering.
