Overview

Zugspitze is Germany's highest mountain, reaching nearly 3,000 meters above sea level. This full-day tour from Munich includes a two-hour drive to Eibsee with live commentary. From there, passengers board a modern cable car that climbs to the summit in about ten minutes. At the top, visitors spend around an hour at the viewing platform taking in views of over 400 surrounding peaks. Afterward, there is a 45 to 60-minute walk to the golden summit cross. Around 2 pm, the group rides the cable car down to the Zugspitzplatt glacier area. Here, guests can have lunch at self-service restaurants offering vegetarian and halal options or try the toboggan hill open during summer months, with free toboggan rentals. At 4 pm, the group meets at Zugspitzstation to take the historic cogwheel train down the mountain. The return bus to Munich departs around 4:45 pm. The tour lasts about eight hours and includes a professional guide, air-conditioned vehicles, and both cable car and cogwheel train rides.
