Garmisch-Partenkirchen

Things to do in Garmisch Partenkirchen

  1. A

    Gasthof Fraundorfer

    If you came to the Alps to experience yodelling, knee slapping and red-faced locals in lederhosen, you just arrived at the right address. Steins of frothing ale fuel the increasingly raucous atmosphere as the evening progresses and monster portions of plattered pig meat push belt buckles to the limit. Decor ranges from baroque cherubs to hunting trophies and the 'Sports Corner'. Unmissable.

  2. Partnachklamm

    One of the area's main attractions is the dramatically beautiful Partnachklamm, a narrow 700m-long gorge with walls rising up to 80m. A circular walk hewn from the rock takes you through the gorge, which is spectacular in winter when you can walk beneath curtains of icicles and frozen waterfalls.

  5. B

    Isi’s Goldener Engel

    The ‘Golden Angel’ is a rococo riot, complete with wacky frescos and gold-leaf-sheathed ceilings that wouldn’t look out of place in a church. It’s family run, neighbourhood adored and delivers classic Bavarian cooking, including a mean pork knuckle with the crust done just so.

    If you fancy an Alpine take on la dolce vita, with mountain views and a bit of faux archaeology thrown in, this much-lauded pasta-pizza parlour with a mammoth menu is the place to head.
