Zugspitze

View is breathtaking. It’s the highest point of Germany . From the top of the mountain , you can enjoy the beauty of the nature around and enormous lake .

Very tough hike. Started 1am at the ski jump and ended 1pm. Line to the summit is a bit long. If youre doing it in 1 day, bring sun protection because it gets hot. And food because it is quite a long trip

I couldn’t recommend this place more! Such a memorable and enjoyable day trip. Our host from Grey Line tours made it extra special, we had a coach from Munich to the mountain base, taking the cable car to the summit, we then (after 2 hours) took the cog train down the mountain. Fabulous views, quick trip to Austria (about 5 minute walk to and from). If you have the opportunity to do this trip, then do it, no thinking needed.

Zugspitze is an absolutely stunning place and I truly loved the experience! The ticket costs around €75 (in summer), and it’s totally worth it. You can travel up by cable car and come down by train, or the other way around—both are amazing experiences. The cable car offers breathtaking views, while the train ride through the mountains is really relaxing and scenic. At the top, there’s a restaurant where you can chill, grab a bite, or enjoy a couple of beers while taking in the panoramic views. Even in summer, the scenery is incredible and the fresh mountain air makes it feel peaceful and refreshing. There are also trekking and climbing activities available if you’re feeling adventurous, though some of them can be a bit risky—still, totally worth it for the view from the top! I’m not sure about the winter prices, but they might be lower. Overall, it’s a must-visit spot if you’re in the area and want to experience the beauty of the Alps.

Amazing views from the mountain peak. It was very fun to make cairns with such great views. Also, the sledding hill is a lot of fun!

Pretty amazing gondola ride and view at the top. If you're a climber or aspire to be, you can climb there. Looks like a cool place to ski in winter. With more time, you can walk down into the bowl on top where there's still an ice field.

The top of Alps. Mesmerizing. Each side has different view to enjoy. A must visit place for every adventure living and mountain loving people. Though the peak is only accessible in summer as in winter, snow is blocking the path. Ticket is 66 in winter and 70 in summer.

I took the Seilbahn Zugspitze to the top of Zugspitze, which was conveniently close to my accommodation in Garmisch-Partenkirchen. The round trip cost 75 euros, and it offered breathtaking panoramic views. The ticket also included a cable car ride down to the Glacier Spot from the summit, which made for an even more fulfilling experience. Before heading up, make sure to check the weather. You can only truly appreciate the panoramic views on a clear day. Unfortunately, a lot of the permanent snow has melted, so the snowscape wasn't as grand as I had anticipated. However, seeing the remnants of a once-operating luxury hotel added a unique charm and a touch of wistfulness to the journey. I didn't get a chance to try the trail from the Glacier Spot back up to the Zugspitze summit, but watching so many people make the climb was truly spectacular. I definitely want to give it a try next time! Zugspitze isn't just a high mountain; it's a special place where you can feel the changes in nature and the passage of time simultaneously. If you're staying in Garmisch-Partenkirchen, I highly recommend a trip up Zugspitze via the Seilbahn Zugspitze!
