High Season

The climate between June and July is summery, warm and sunny, however, most of the rainfall in the country happens in these months, therefore, the climate can be unstable. The roads and transport routes are full of tourists, as well as beaches and accommodation. Prices are usually very high, especially on beaches and mountains.

Shoulder Season

Spring and autumn (April to June and September to October) are ideal seasons to visit Germany. On the one hand, in spring, the plants usually bloom with the sunny and clear days. The prices are regular, with low prices that will rise in high season. Autumn is cool with bright foliage and about to fall from the trees. Prices ending high season may be slightly elevated, but usually tends to be reduced.

Low Season

There are no lines or very high prices. with little audience, the low season (nov-mar) comes with low temperatures that can close a lot of attractions. The days are shorter and the nights are very cold. Activities such as opera, theater and concerts are famous in these months. The peak of tourists occurs from December to February in mountainous areas, winter sports are very famous.

Your trip to Germany

i travel from

Your travel to Germany has about 18% the climate impact as your entire yearly budget of CO₂ emissions. This "yearly climate-compatible budget" sets the limit of emissions any person should produce in order to keep global warming to below 2C at about 2 tons of CO2. It includes anything from heating to stay warm and cosy in winter, your daily hot showers, the annoying commute to work, any traveling you do, the production of your yummy food and products you buy – and much more you emit by living your life.

travelhero tip
Just like slow food – ever thought about slow travel? Discovering the hidden treasures nearby is a great new adventure. Go by train to get a better feeling of small changes in your surroundings or have a fun road trip with your friends. If you still feel the need to fly, compensate your emissions.
