Best time to visit Munich

Spring in Munich brings gradually warming days, with average temperatures around 8–15°C (46–59°F). Parks and gardens turn green, and outdoor terraces begin to fill. It is a pleasant time for sightseeing with fewer crowds and a fresh atmosphere.

Sommer (summer, June to August, peak season)
Summer is warm and lively, with average temperatures of 18–24°C (64–75°F) and occasional hotter days. Locals flock to parks, riversides, and lakes, and many events take place outdoors. Longer daylight hours give you more time to explore both the city and nearby countryside.
