What to do and see in Garmisch-Partenkirchen, Bavaria: The Best Budget-friendly Things to do

October 29, 2021 Jeremy Dunfee

South of Garmisch-Partenkirchen on the Austrian border lies Germany's highest mountain, Zugspitze, rising nearly 10,000 feet and offering gorgeous glacier-top skiing. The towns of Garmisch and Partenkirchen used to be separate, but were merged for the 1936 Winter Olympics. With almost 75 miles of downhill runs of all difficulty levels, Zugspitze also has 68 miles of cross-country trails, a terrain park and Germany's first superpipe. It's super cool to say you were skiing in Garmisch, so be sure to spread the word upon your return.

Partnachklamm

Reviewed By dj22015 - Brisbane, Australia

This walk is ideal for families and others as it is easily accessible via a 1.5km walk along a country road. The gorge itself is a narrow track right beside the gorge and cut into the cliffs, so you can feel and see the power of the water. A must see if you love the power of nature.

Ludwigstrasse

Reviewed By TheAngeloS - Hilliard, United States

The historic center of Partenkirchen. Lined with painted buildings that tell stories or indicate what the building is or was for in the past, it is a a great place for a walk with shopping, dining and day-to-day services. In the morning and late afternoon children are heading to or from school, and during the day there are citizens of Partenkirchen going about their daily lives.
