Private: Mount ZUGSPITZE & SNOW Much More – Deluxe Tour from Munich

Mount Zugspitze – a mountain of superlatives: at 2,962 m, the highest mountain in Germany, whose unique 360° panorama allows for breathtaking views of both the lowlands and the Alpine peaks of four countries.

Fun & action awaits you in the eternal ice on the Zugspitz glacier, while you experience three world sensations on the ride with the new Zugspitz cable car: the highest cable car support + the greatest difference in height + the longest cable span!

The excursion does not have to end with the descent: Your personal, licensed and friendly tour guide will take you in a comfortable VW minivan to other top sights in and around Garmisch-Partenkirchen and explain their historical and current background.

For this purpose, the two communities Garmisch and Partenkirchen were forcibly merged.
Learn from your tour guide Stefan more about the darkest years 1933 – 1945, but also about the current use of the stadium and the ski jumps.

Already 2,000 years ago here was a Roman trade route between Italy and Augsburg.

In the middle of a remote Alpine valley, the Bavarian ‘Fairy Tale King’ Ludwig II built his most magnificent and at the same time most intimate castle. The 30-minute guided tour through the rooms decorated in French Rococo style will take your breath away.

Then feel free to explore the place on your own.

Less than a 20-minute drive from Garmisch-Partenkirchen is the historically unique monastery church of the Benedictine Ettal monastery.

Also nearby is the villa that Ludwig rented for his admired composer Richard Wagner.
