Garmisch-Partenkirchen
Absolutely unique: Garmisch-Partenkirchen, located amidst breath-taking mountain scenery at the foot of Germany´s highest mountain, the Zugspitze (2.962 m), is the epitome of vast and pristine alpine nature. It is a unique place in an awesome setting where outdoor activities are an extraordinary experience — between mountain and valley, in the water or in the air. It is a region that has shaped human beings and their culture. Here, you still find typical Bavarian traditions in their original form. A place where you get closer to nature and discover something about yourself.
