Garmisch has by far one of the most beautiful sceneries of all Germany. I am thankful for growing up here and calling this my hometown. Ps: I grew up in Partenkirchen, Garmisch and Partenkirchen used to be two seperated villages which were put together over the years. Nice vid!

When we were in Bavaria in May we took a day trip down to Füssen and then through Austria to Garmisch where I took my family to one my favorite childhood memories, the Partnachklamm. They said it was the highlight of the day. Thanks for another great video. Still can't wait for that Starnberg-Andechs-Ammersee video! ;)

@@tanck09 we rented a car and drove so that we could explore and stop where we pleased. There is a regional train from Innsbruck that goes this way (we crossed the tracks to have a picnic), but I'm not sure if it interfaces with the Bavarian regional trains in either Fussen or Garmisch. I do know that you can take a train from Innsbruck to München though.

Y'all are far and away the best travel videos I've watched. To be fair, I guess, I haven't watched that many, but it's because I tend to find them moderately insufferable! (The really personal ones are less so, but also not the most useful or easy to watch. I have nothing against a couple of happy people showing off their great trip to [where ever], but also it's not that useful or the most fun to watch.) In contrast, your videos ended up essentially being the backbone to the plan I have for the trip I'm taking next April, and you're making me want to start planning another trip already to go to places that I can't fit into a single 2-week vacation! BTW the details about HOW to get to places are something that almost no one seems to do; thank you! Edit: I just saw someone else's comment about suggestions for clothing for different seasons, and I echo that. We're from Texas and all of our clothes are basically, "Okay so is it 80 degrees and humid or 105 degrees and humid?"

@NearFromHome Жыл бұрын

Wow thank you so much! This really REALLY means a lot. You basically reiterated exactly how we feel about the current state of travel KZfaq. Most of the popular travel channels seem to be lifestyle or family vlogs, and not actually guides (as many of them claim to be). I also agree, that that's fine, but their trips usually seem kinda low quality/poorly planned. We have gone on vacation so many times, and realised how poorly represented so many vacation destinations are by YT travel vlogs. You can't rely on them. Travel blogs are still the way to go. Anyway, thanks for the really nice comment. Will consider talking more about clothing for traveling in Germany. I think we have taken that information for granted.

Hey guys, cracking video of my favorite Bavarian place, we are going back again in June for 7 nights at Ferienhaus Heimhof, right at the base for the Keuzeckbahn, we stayed there in May this year, well recommended, an interesting point is as a guest there it includes a free local bus pass for your stay, how cool is that especially as the bus stops right out side the apartment's at the ski lift every half hour, obviously a day trip to your home town of Munich will be on the cards as i want to vist the war museum on the out skirts.( and have some beer.) keep up the good work.

I've visited GaPa many times back in 1963 & 1964. I climbed the Zwolferkopf via the Zwolferkante with well known alpine guide Helmut Pfanzelt, and we then descended through Partnachklamm. I came out soaked to the skin but was a very happy person. My friend and guide had suggested bringing a Regenschirm (umbrella) in my pack, but I braved it without one. One of my "trips of a lifetime" that I recall with great joy.

That’s true for our more compilation style videos, yes! Which is why we make them. Though for our videos where we try to take you along with us we naturally show a lot of ourselves. The goal is for the two styles to comportment each other. The style from this video is about making a lot of recommendations quickly, but without going too deep into detail. Whereas the more traditional vlog style aim to make you feel like you’ve come along with us, and we show all the detail that we can. I hope you stick around for both styles!!

We're from a very warm, humid climate in the USA, so we're not 100% clear on how heavy our coats should be. Have you considered making a video about recommended clothing or gear for different seasons?

@wrok88 Жыл бұрын

It'll be somewhere between 35f and 53f around late October during the day and humidity should be close to 70-80% average. Though not entirely sure (haven't yet experienced it myself), but it is mentioned that on average there is a lot of rainfall here as well. In general, consider: it's a high mountain climate, with Germany's highest mountain right next to it.

Eibsee is definitely on my list for next month's trip, as it is indeed highly praised for photography. Definitely doing that hike around the lake you mention in your vid! Though I'll be starting from a different mountain town that is perhaps a bit less known, but also comes very highly recommended: Oberstdorf (with mount Nebelhorn right next to it and Rubihorn and the Unterer Geisalpsee very close to it). Think it's about the same distance from Munich as it would be to Garmisch-Partenkirchen, but a bit less touristy.

But apart from the last one these are the tourist spots everybody knows ;-). If you want to go to spots that usually only locals go you might have to go to the Isar river before it goes into Sylvenstein lake which is also beautiful apart from the car bridge. Or you go to Walchensee, a lake usually only locals go to. Or visit the monastery in Ettal where the monks still wear traditional robes. Also if you want to go skiing the Alpspitze and Hausberg are way better than Zugspitze. The Alpspitze is also beautiful in the summer.

Yeah, this video is really just to introduce beginners specifically to Garmisch itself. We get these questions all the time from people making their first trip to Germany, and this is a reasonable place to start. Though your suggestions are good, they definitely aren’t in Garmisch, they are just a little too far for me to put them in a video like this, nor would I broadly recommend them to every single person. That being said we have covered Walchensee and Ettal. So I hope you stick around, watch some of our deeper videos and share us with your friends!

Hello! I loved watching your Bavaria vlogs. Me and my husband are visiting eibsee this Spring. We’re filmmakers and we’re dying to have our drone flying over Eibsee. Did you get any permit to fly a drone?

Drone rules are always evolving and changing I’m afraid, so the best I can say for you to go off of is to make sure you research the currently applicable rules for your size of drone and your goal in filming :)

You can buy the Bayern ticket. It allows you to use any public transportation in Bavaria (except for ICE) for the day. You could also buy a Deutschland ticket. It is 49 euros for the month. It allows you to use any public transport in Germany (except ICE) for the month. It is really only for locals, so there are a few hurdles you ave to pass, but also some work arounds.

Honestly, it depends on what you want to explore as I don't think there is a singular best time to visit. What I love about this video though is you can actually see different times of the year within it. The Zugspitze was during the height of Winter, Partnachklamm in the Summer, and Eibsee was in Austumn :)

The food is bavarian aswell, Käsespätzle and Schnitzel are not distinct austrian, Käsepätzle originally are probably from swabia. The only distinct dish is the Kaiserschmarrn, but its just a subvariant of all types of Schmarrn which can be found in any area of bavaria with sugar or without, there is also a Potatoeschmarrn. Tyrol and bavaria share a common history, especially close to the border. Many dishes are very similar or basically the same.
