We took the cable car up and had a great view but it wasn't as great as hiking around the Eibsee. At the base of the Zugspitze is the Eibsee (the lake) you will see it if you go up. If I had to do it again, I would skip going up and just look up at the mountain from...

I absolutely loved visiting the top of Zugspitze. It was about $55 a person for the train and cable car ride to the top but it was absolutely worth it. A must see on your next trip to Bavaria!

Beautiful and awe inspiring! There are no words for the beauty of this site. Thankfully, we were able to be there early enough to have some great views before the clouds rolled in.

We travelled to Garmisch-Partenkirchen (and Neuschwanstein) in mid-October, and we were incredibly lucky to have had perfectly clear weather for 2 days. This made our trip near-perfect.

While I realized...

We visited Zuspitze in the last week of April'12 on a clear day & was welcomed with stunning views. You could see Austiran Alps, Swiss Alps & Italian Alps altogether. Its a must do trip if you are in Munich. We did a day trip from Munich, Germany & it took us around 2 & half hours to reach Zusptize...

If in Garmisch, I would say this is worth your time. We got there early- 10 am. It is to good to go earlier to beat crowds. The view from the top is incredible. It was a bit too early for all the summer activities to be open, so we did not get to see most of those things. The...

If you are there and it is a clear day you have to go up just because it is there and is Germany's highest mountain. The queue even in off season was quite bad, dread to think how long you have to wait in high season, anyway it was worth it as the view from the top is wunderbar! there...
