Garmisch-Partenkirchen and the Zugspitze
This pleasant town is one of the favorite meeting points for the jet set and is situated at the foot of Germany’s highest mountain, the Zugspitze. From here its almost 3000-m-high peak can be reached by rack railway, or you can take the cable car from Erwald past the imposing West Wall or the Eibsee cable railway from Grainau at lake Eibsee (distance: about 70 km).
