Grainau: Ehrwald, Zugspitze - Tiroler Zugspitze Golf-Anlage
Tucked between the Wetterstein Mountains and the Mieming Range, Ehrwald is a place whose character is shaped by the limestone massif of the Zugspitze. At 2,962 metres, the Zugspitze is Germany’s highest mountain and forms part of the border with Austria; its broad rock walls define the northern edge of the Ehrwald Basin. Ehrwald is one of the principal resorts of the Tyrolean Zugspitz Arena, framed by the Wetterstein range to the north and the Mieming Range beyond the valley. The Tiroler Zugspitzbahn, which has carried passengers from Ehrwald towards the summit since 1926, gives the settlement a long-standing connection to alpine tourism. Meadows, forested lower slopes and exposed limestone cliffs give the village a distinctly high-mountain setting.

Grainau combines the calm pace of an Alpine settlement with the presence of Germany’s highest peak, reflecting its position beneath the Zugspitze in the Bavarian Alps. The municipality rises from wooded valley ground toward the Wetterstein range, and Lake Eibsee lies at the mountain’s foot. Hammersbach, a district of Grainau, is the starting point for the Höllentalklamm gorge and routes into the Höllental valley. Opened in 1930, the Bavarian Zugspitze Railway runs through Grainau on its way from Garmisch-Partenkirchen to the Zugspitzplatt plateau.

Built around the early medieval Duchy of Bavaria, Bavaria grew into Germany’s largest federal state. The Danube crosses its broad centre, while the Bavarian Alps form its southern edge and include the Zugspitze, Germany’s highest mountain. Munich is the state capital and the home of Oktoberfest, a festival rooted in an 1810 royal wedding. Beyond the metropolis, Franconia’s vineyards, Swabian towns and Alpine resorts reveal how varied this part of Germany can be.

Germany stretches from the North Sea and Baltic Sea coasts to the Alps on its southern border, encompassing northern plains, river valleys and forested uplands. The Rhine, Danube and Elbe have long connected its regions, while the Black Forest and Bavarian Alps give the south a more dramatic relief. Berlin’s Brandenburg Gate and Museum Island reflect the capital’s role in German history and culture. Cologne Cathedral, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, rises above the Rhine, and the Bauhaus movement, founded in Weimar in 1919, transformed modern design far beyond Germany. Regional cooking, Christmas markets and brewing traditions bring further character to daily life. Browse additional webcams from the surrounding area to extend your view of Germany.
