About Garmisch-Partenkirchen

Garmisch-Partenkirchen is Germany's premier ski destination, set beneath the Zugspitze — the country's highest peak. The town has genuine Bavarian character, excellent dining, and a mix of Olympic heritage and traditional culture. The skiing is limited compared to Austrian neighbours, but the atmosphere is distinctive and the glacier offers reliable conditions.
