Hohenburg is a prominent hill in Lenggries, a village just north of Bad Tölz. At its summit stands a pilgrimage church dedicated to the Assumption of Mary, a beloved local sanctuary. The ascent, either on foot or by car, rewards visitors with a peaceful atmosphere and a panoramic vista that stretches across the Isar river valley to the Karwendel and Wetterstein mountain ranges. The church itself is a simple yet charming baroque building, often adorned with flowers and offering a quiet space for reflection. Many visitors come not only for the religious significance but also for the scenic hiking trails that crisscross the hill, making it a perfect short excursion from Bad Tölz. The surrounding meadows and forests are ideal for a picnic or a leisurely stroll, with benches placed to take in the alpine scenery.
