Germany (Finalists) - Königssee (“King’s Lake”)
The Germany team received much praise for the way in which they demolished hosts Brazil 7-1 in the semi finals, with many Brazilian fans now supporting the Germans as they ‘play like Brazil’.
Admirers of natural beauty who cannot make it to Brazil to see the German team in action may instead travel to the south of Germany, to the state of Bavaria. The Königssee is Germany’s third deepest lake, formed by glaciers during the last ice age around 20,000 years ago. Its setting is within the Alps, with steep sided mountains surrounding the clear water, making for some stunning vistas.
