Christian Eckl-Nerding, who has strong emotional ties to Deininger Weiher due to his marriage there two years ago, has teamed up with Maximilian Baumbach and Julian Horvat to take over the Waldhaus restaurant. The trio’s decision to become the new hosts was influenced not only by business factors but also by a sense of connection to this tranquil location. They plan to reopen the restaurant in April, capitalizing on the popularity of the area as a scenic excursion spot in Upper Bavaria.

Deininger Weiher is currently in a peaceful state in early March, devoid of the usual crowds of ice skaters, snowy walkers, and cyclists. The new management aims to ensure that the restaurant remains a welcoming and enjoyable destination for visitors, preserving its reputation as a feel-good place. The team is attentive to the desires of the community, promising that their management will enhance the overall experience rather than change its essence.

The former operators, the South Tyrolean Tschurtschenthaler family, left an impact on the locale, and the new hosts are aware of the important legacy they inherit. As they look forward to the reopening, they are committed to upholding the charm and beloved atmosphere of Waldhaus, ensuring that it continues to be a favored spot for both locals and tourists alike.
