Shop Ad. Trail Talk. Trip Reports. Sun Aug 06, am. I have been on a work trip near Munich, Germany for the past 11 days. During that time, I only had one full day available for exploring the countryside. Unfortunately, we had one driver, one car, and I would need to convince my four co-workers how great it would be to visit the Bavarian Alps and go to Zugspitze, the Germany highpoint. None of these co-workers are peakbaggers, and they each might have their own places that they would want to go. But convincing them that this trip would be a great idea ended up being easier than I expected. One guy was onboard as soon as he heard we could see some castles near the area. Another guy, who was the driver in the group, was onboard as soon as I said there would be opportunities for him to drink beer. Our group designated me the official 'party planner' for Sunday, July 30, and asked me to plan the trip details for the day. I told my co-workers that because this is something I want to do and want to introduce to them, that I insisted on paying for the Zugspitze part of the day so they would not have to worry about the cost. We left Munich in the morning and headed south. As we passed through Garmisch and Grainau, which are Leavenworth-esque towns, we heard 'The Neverending Story' theme song on German radio. None of us had heard that song for years but it seemed like the perfect song for the region. There is typically a direct gondola from the base of the mountain but that cable car line was torn down in recent years and a newer, bigger gondola is currently in construction and is projected to open at the end of this year. I was happy about the current situation because I thought it was fun to ride the Bayerische Zugspitzbahn cogwheel train up the mountain. Our train left at AM and did not waste time climbing up the mountain. This was the steepest train track I had ever been on, and the views were great. The train went through a forest and above treeline, then going into the mountain. The tunnel inside of the mountain is m ' long! Very fun! The train then stops at its upper station, Zugspitzplatt, at m '. From our starting point, the cogwheel train had climbed m ' elevation in only 8. We explored Zugspitzplatt for a while. There is a tiny, old chapel there to visit. We enjoyed free tobogganing down a hill. There are plenty of opportunities for skiing and snowboarding, although the season is now done for those activities at this area. From Zugspitzplatt, there is a great view of the upper slopes of Zugspitze. Climber could be seen in a conga line, looking like ants on an anthill, going up steep, slippery slopes as they ascended the peak. We then took the Gletscherbahn gondola ride to the upper main platform of the mountain, at approximately m '. This is not the true summit but it is the highest point that most people stop. After some exploring and soaking in the views, I continued to the true summit and only one co-worker was willing to go with me. Reaching the true summit is not for the faint at heart. In fact, there is a large sign at the start of the route saying that climbing equipment is needed although it is not really necessary. A fall here would likely be fatal. It was fantastic reaching the true summit. I knew that I had not only reached the highest point of the Bavarian Alps and Germany, but I also had ascended my first country highpoint and an ultra-prominence peak. I was proud of my co-worker Mark, who also reached the summit. I took the lead to direct traffic as best I could, to create a safe, consistent flow for everyone involved. After getting back to the main platform, I had a pretzel and Coca-Cola After our snack break and more photos, we descended from the peak the same way as our ascent gondola and cogwheel train. When we got back to the car, we drove west into Austria. We stopped at a golfing resort for lunch, where we each ate wiener schnitzel. It was very good! From our lunch stop, we had an excellent view of Zugspitze. After lunch, we continued west and then north, passing some castles along the way. Once back into Germany, we went to Schwangau to see two castles, Neuschwanstein Castle a. While at the sites, the inside tours for Neuschwanstein Castle had been sold out but we were able to be in an inside tour of Hohenschwangau Castle, which is actually the older castle of the two. It was great seeing the castle and learning about the various rooms. There were great views of the countryside, as well. This area is a highly recommended place to visit. After leaving the castles, we headed back northeast towards Munich. Shortly after leaving Schwangau, we encountered what seemed like the storm of the century. Winds, rain, hail, and standing water pushed through the region, almost like a hurricane. As a result, it took us much longer to get back to our hotel than we had hoped but we safely got there in the evening. We then worked the remainder of the week, with no time to explore the region any further, so I was very thankful that we had our one-day outing to the Bavarian Alps. Cogwheel train station at Eibsee.

Sun Aug 06, pm. Redwick, thanks for posting this great report on on a cool destination. I've been there several times including on my honeymoon! Nothing like a beer and bratwurst on the deck up there. Last time I walked up from the Austrian town of Ehrwald. It's just a little scrambly, not much different from the Mount Si haystack but with via ferrata cables to make it safer. There are several great hikes that start in Ehrwald if you have more time some day. There is a light rail from Garmisch to get there in about 30 minutes. I can't wait to go back some day. Congratulations on your successful summit bid. Sorry to have not been able to have shared mountain comraderie and a beer with you on this one. The lists are never ending and I too have started to work on country highpoints. In October I will get toe the top of Jordan for my sixth country highpoint. Congrats man, both on the climb and convincing your co-workers to go with you!

I had to laugh at this part. Total peak bagging geekery, I love it! I agree. I thought that really showed how resourceful you are. Great report. Search this topic:.

View Zugspitze in half a day Image Gallery - 1 Images. I recognized a lot: sleeping in the car, the crowds, the camping, the dislike of the cable car! Good idea to stop over at the Harz on the way down. Thanks for commenting. I have been thinking about moving closer to the Alps and passing through Munich on the way to Zugspitze I again realized that you can live and work in a big city and still be close to the mountains. So I might have to consider moving south again. It's just too bad I work a company where the main activities outside of Denmark are in Doha, Dubai. Even less mountaineering there than in Denmark :. Hi, You wrote a good story! I often complain about my distance 6 hours to the nearest parts of the Alps. But you are right: Denmark is a nightmare from this aspect. Hi Szani. Thanks for the nice words. This is still better than in Copenhagen, but on the positive side the mountainbike singletrack network around Copenhagen just keeps getting better. We now have close to km of good tracks close to the city. Unfortunately weather conditions weren't by far as good as yours - cloud covered and partly rain except for some sunny spells right where they should have been, in the upper part. Cheers Reinhard. It is indeed an amazing route. I liked the variety of a lot. First the first, then canoyon, the a big open valley, a little glacier and finally a huge wall. And all that in just one day. I would do that in a minute! There is fun on coming up on a summit that has a tourist route, mixing with the masses, then plunging back into solitude.

Images 1 Comments Introduction The main problem about being a mountaineer and living in Denmark is the complete lack of mountains in this country highest hill is m Luckily the Alps are 'only' hours drive away. No problem for a longer vacation, but much too long for going there in weekends or take day trips. The distance means that once I finally get to the mountains, I am so eager to get the most out of the precious little time and bag as a many of those tall peaks as possible that I often end up with completely wasted legs after days, and sometimes venture out on mountain adventures when weather really should just have forced me to stay down in the valley. This year I spent another 2 weeks touring the Alps. Again I had a heavily packed program, so speedy ascents were crucial. Zugspitze was on the list. The normal route takes two days. No time for that, it should easily be doable in a day! Prologue I had spent the first three days of my holiday on mountainbike in the Harz region. We had bagged more than 3. I arrived in Garmisch late afternoon just as the afternoon thunder shower struck the city, so I had the opportunity to see the slowest hikers returning from the mountains racing towards shelter. I had planned an early start, so I didn't want to pay for lodging. Instead I drove directly to the trailhead at the Kreuzeck cablecar. I chose not to pay too much attention to the 'No Camping'-signs and found a quite place in the corner of the parking lot. The weather kept improving and in the evening there were some nice views towards Zugspitze and the Wettersteingebirge. I didn't want to draw to much attention, so putting up a tent was out of the question. Instead I cleared the back of the car and made room for the sleeping bag. Tugged in early - tomorrow I would finally be back in the mountains. Sunset in the Alps. Weather looks promising! Hotel Toyota Avensis. Huts on the fields towards Hamersbach. I wish we had just a few places like this in Denmark Crossing the Brett. Heading towards the glacier. Solitude in the mountains Pick a number and wait in line. Looking back down the via ferrata route. Ahhhh, Alps. Oh, the horror. Just another day at the office, or not. Comments Post a Comment. Viewing: of Don't have an account? Table of Contents.
