On our quest to explore the best of the Alps, we visited Garmisch-Partenkirchen, an appealing resort town nestled in the Bavarian Alps.

Interestingly, this town is comprised of two separate side-by-side villages that united in 1935 to host the Winter Olympics. World-renowned for its alpine hiking, Garmisch-Partenkirchen is home to Germany’s highest mountain, the Zugspitze. From its majestic mountains and pristine forests to its stunning gorges and shimmering lakes, this is the destination where your love of outdoor family travel will soar to new heights.
