Vienna to Munich

My boyfriend and I are taking a car from Munich to Salzburg, then Salzburg to Vienna over 5 days. We have these parts of the trip booked. My problem is what to do for two days after Vienna before we have to get back to Munich airport? We have spent a few days in Munich itself last year but this time I would like to see more of the countryside/attractions that are outside the city. We will be there the last week of August so I need to book accomodation asap! Is it easier to just book somewhwere in central Munich and go for day trips? Any advise is greatly appriciated :-)

Some ideas:





Burghausen, with Europe%26#39;s longest castle

Passau at the junction of the rivers Danube, Inn and Ilz. Passau cathedral%26#39;s organ is with 17.794 pipes the biggest organ on the planet.

Regensburg, the oldest bridge across the Danube (from 1135-1146). One of the biggest cities in Germany not destroyed in WWII. UNESCO world heritage site.

Herrenchiemsee New Palace on an island in Lake Chiemsee.

Freising



Has with the Bavarian State Brewery Weihenstephan the oldest brewery on the planet (1040).

Freising is the perfect place to stay last night before a flight out of Munich Airport. Close with frequent direct bus connections.

I second the suggestions above for Fresing and Regensburg. Both are excellent choices.
