Alte Heide-Hirschau

Munich

The Eisbach is a river that flows through the English Garden, and the river surfing can be found on the southern end of the park.   The Eisbach is actually a man-made river, and the standing wave where the river surfing takes place is around a meter high. Since it is a standing wave, surfers can stay on it for as long as they’re able to keep their balance because it doesn’t ebb and flow like ocean waves.

River surfing technically wasn’t allowed until 2010, when it was officially legalized, but surfers have used it since 1972. Now they even hold surfing competitions here.

The check in system didn't have my booking. The room was set up for 3 people and there wasn't much room. The carpet was filthy. The queue at breakfast was long and annoying, and the underground parking was extortionate.

I read reviews, good and bad before we came and it’s all true.
