Bundesstraße 23 (abbreviated to B 23) is a German federal highway (German: Bundesstraße) in Bavaria that runs from Peiting to the Austrian border near Garmisch-Partenkirchen. The road is partially a part of the “German Alpine Road” (German: Deutsche Alpenstraße). The B 23 which together with the Bundesstraße 17 and Bundesstraße 472 the quickest way from Augsburg to Garmisch-Partenkirchen, continue along the Bundesstraße 2 to Mittenwald, Innsbruck and the Brenner Pass.

The B 23 starts at the B 472 (bypass Schongau - Peiting) exit Peiting-south in the Weilheim-Schongau district and initially leads to Rottenbuch. A few years ago, this stretch was in a poor state of development, during which some more serious accidents have occurred. In recent years, this segment has been widened.

After the main through-road of Rottenbuch reaches the line the “Echelsbacher Brücke”. The 183 m long and 76 m high arch bridge spanning the Ammer. On the bridge there is also the border of the district of Garmisch-Partenkirchen.

The road passes Bad Bayersoien and reaches Saulgrub. Currently, a local diversion around Saulgrub is being built to ease traffic congestion from through traffic. In Saulgrub, the B 23 meets the Ammergau Railway (Murnau / Oberammergau) for the first time.
