About 18 kms south of Oberammergau is the town of Garmisch-Partenkirchen and the location of the Zugspitzbahnhof. Here you can take the cogwheel train via Grainau on the Eibsee Lake, through the 4.8 km Zugspitze Tunnel to the Zugspitzeplatt. The entire journey takes about 80 minutes. Trains only run once an hour up and back so best to check the times before visiting.

The last couple of nights at Camping Klosterneuburg had been very blustery and the caravan had been rocked quite alarmingly to the point of even waking Kim up 🙂 A quick look at my Weatherpro app confirmed that it was probably time to move on again. Continue reading Zell Am See→
