Garmisch-Partenkirchen and Zugspitze
Bavarian way of life not far from Germany’s highest mountain
Anyone who holidays here is to be envied, because Garmisch-Partenkirchen impresses with its authenticity, its liveliness and its Bavarian charm. It reveals itself on a stroll through the town with its many Lüftlmalerei (decorative façade paintings) and its many houses in the Upper Bavarian style. Feasting in a traditional inn reveals even more of the Alpine way of life.
A ride on the Zugspitze railway is highly recommended. Reaching the summit of Germany’s highest mountain rewards you with a magnificent view over the Alpine chain and far into the Alpine foothills.
