Freising and Erding are a short bus ride away and very representative of small town bavaria. If you want to go a bit farther you can try Landshut which is more pittoresk. Both Landshut (30min) and the very nice Regensburg (90 min) can be reached using the new Üfex rail service that departs from the terminal station below MUC.
