Adrenaline junkies and thrillseekers will find this climbing tour over the tent roof of the Olympic Stadium quite the treat.

When it comes to descending, you can choose to abseil down or opt for the Flying Fox, whizzing from a platform down to the east stand on a zipline at breakneck speed.

Should your Munich itinerary call for a blend of sports, excitement, and a dash of the unusual, consider paying a visit to the Eisbach wave.

For 40 years and counting, the Eisbach wave has served as a beloved hotspot for both surfers seeking a thrill and spectators drawn in by the spectacle.

Situated at the base of Blomberg in Wackersberg, an hour's drive from Munich, lies a toboggan run that packs a punch: the Blomberg Blitz.
