Munich What to Pack

Visiting Munich for the first time can be a wonderful adventure, for those who pack everything needed. The beautiful scenery won’t be nearly as appealing when unprepared for the weather conditions.

Luggage

No matter what you have planned for your Munich adventure, these luggage options are ideal for a short or long-term stay.

Preparing for Munich Weather

Munich is situated very close to the Alps, so even with it’s continental climate there can be a lot of rain. Visitors going out for a picnic or into the city on a perfectly sunny day can suddenly find themselves in a downpour. Being prepared for such surprises in the weather is something to take into account when packing. Even in the heat of the summer, an umbrella, trousers and long-sleeved shirts should be packed. July is especially hot in Munich. In the winter, warm clothes will be needed as it gets quite cold.

Shoes for men or women should be comfortable. Visitors walk a lot in Munich, and the cobblestone streets can be very hard on feet.
