Excellent job once again. My wife and i always started our German-Austrian adventures by driving from Munich to Garmisch where we spent our first night. A bit touristy but there is something so charming about the place that we find it irresistible!
Excited to watch this new video as we are leaving in a few days for the Grainau area! So much looking forward to the holiday, als because of your videos!
Last year I was in Zermatt, Switzerland and went up on a funicular to an place called Sunnega, which had a wonderful cafeteria restaurant with a great view of the Matterhorn. I got a schnitzel and the server behind the counter asked me if I wanted onion gravy on it. I said "sure, why not?" and it was delicious! Fast forward 5 days and I'm in a similar cafeteria in Mannlichen, overlooking the Jungfrau region and I ask the server behind the counter if he would put some onion gravy on my schnitzel... Well, he made a face like he'd just eaten a lemon and loudly proclaimed "ewwww!" and gave me the plate with my gravy in disgust! 😀 I wanted to tell him that it was another Swiss guy that suggested it, but I just walked on smiling and thoroughly enjoyed my schnitzel! (Your schnitzel comment at the end of the video reminded me of that!)
This vid I find very special for people who have been following you for quite some time, as it was a bit like a " making of" with you commenting on what you do and did in your vids. A very interesting insite. Of course you have done Germish many times before so from that point of viel there was some repetition but like in a very best of GAP you brought together all the different aspects of your previous Garmish-vids, which I liked very much.
Thank you so much!! Camille also wanted to try doing a lot more on camera in this video, and considering we never showed the Alm next to the castle or the lakeside restaurant we hoped there would be enough new content for long time viewers while still reminding hopefully new viewers of one of my favourite day trips.
Combine the two NFH vids, and take the Philosophenweg out of Partenkirchen up to the Kuhfluchtwasserfall. Then head down to Farchant, cross the valley and up to the castle and Pflegersee. Return to Garmisch via the Kellerleitensteig for a great day hike.
You had it good with the train.We decided to hike in the week to Tegernsee as we thought less crowded than weekend all was good until we arrived at Harras when a flash mob of noisey teenagers from a school entered filling train up instantly.They got out at Schliersee as we did and this rable continued to follow is to the trail head.- nightmare experiece when we just wanted a peaceful day in the country
Wii Hoo! This has been on my bucket list since your first video a couple years ago! In my last trip a year ago, I was still recovering from ankle surgery, making hiking very difficult too bad I wasn't able to do it.
@@NearFromHome Well, I'm booked to arrive in Munich on 13 August, spending 4 nights and doing local day trips before moving on to Heidelberg, Leipzig, Wittenberg, and Dresden! Plans are still in a state of development to include Noerdlingen and Regensburg before driving to the Dolomites in Italy. I'm booked for a week in St. Cristina before returning to Munich for my return flight to Montana.
We stayed in Ga pa just two weeks ago . What’s the name of this river ? Where’s it with reference to the train station and Zugspitze bahn station please ?
Another great video! But I have a question: How did the schnitzel compare to Drei Mühlen? I've been to Garmisch a couple of times - once in the winter to go skiing and once in the late summer. I love Garmisch. I can hopefully return and take the hike you guys went on. So cool!!! Tschüß!
@@NearFromHome It looked good, but I agree with you, Drei Mühlen is my favorite too. And another reason to go there, the Augustiner Bier. Thanks for the reply!
Thank you for the video. Now I'm hungry. 😁 Are you ready to discover the Höllentalklamm gorge this year or are you still worried about the sometimes somewhat airy views?
@@M.G.74 I agree, if you skip the Stangensteig and thus get to enjoy the gorge twice. Hiking a little further into the Höllental beyond the hut can also be worthwhile.
@@NearFromHome slight misunderstanding; if there was exposure to drops I wouldn't have been anywhere near it! You've done Highline 179 - something I never could. You'll be fine!!
I just loooove your wonderful content and your always positive appreciativity! Your German by now is perfect - however, I'd prefer to practice my all rusted-in English skills on you and beg your pardon - I'm German, after all..... 🥰
I’m visiting Garmisch for 4 days in August. Super keen. Btw how strong is their accent? Will I be able to get through will some hoch deutsch? And when did you record this? Surely it is not this weather in June? Although I’d love to see snow when I go in the height of summer lol
I have not noticed much of an accent in GP. I don't think I have ever heard Bayerisch either. People also speak English really well there. I think this might be because it is a very popular resort town!
@@NearFromHomeok that’s interesting. Also do you have videos about much smaller, sort of less known towns in the south of Germany? I know most of the main towns on the south, but when I zoom in on google maps there’s so many. Everyone always just recommends Garmisch, Füssen bertesgarten, mittenwald, haven’t seen heaps of different ones though. Maybe they aren’t interesting?
@@shamicentertainment1262 I don't know if there are any other villages that are worth just seeing, but there are plenty of villages that facilitate hiking. We really like Flintsbach for that. You can check out our best German can video for that. Kufstein is an Austrian town worth seeing. We also like Bad Reichenhall. The town is cute, and they have a cool salt works. Tegernsee, Herrsching, and Schliersee (village) are both ok, but have lots of lake activities. Benediktbeuern has a cool monastery.
Yes that is true! I would download the DB app as it provides pretty accurate up to date information. But yes, unfortunately, many cities and towns in bavaria are getting really bad flooding and are not accessible at the moment. :/
We are making the trip next week, too. The GaPa TI office told me trains are disrupted the week of 9 June because of long-planned track work. We’re desperately hoping that our flight is on time and we can make our Flixbus reservation. The alternative is a four-train journey that takes about 3.5 hours.
Awesome video once again! Right around minute 13:50 as Camille pointed out Farchant I wanted to add: located in this village is the awesome speciality coffee roastery of Wildkaffee - a must see and experience for any coffee enthusiast!
Y’all are always making it difficult for me to plan trips because there’s so much that you’re making me want to visit. Also, I’m pro-sauce… so sauce those schnitzels.😂
Awesome video. My wife and I are coming to the Edelweiss Lodge in Garmisch this August for 11 days. We love the area and food. Thanks for the Wonderful ideas for a small hike and dinner
It’s been 15 years since I’ve been to Bavaria. Your content brings me “home” every time. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart.
:,)

Thanks so much! I feel so conflicted because it is a little touristy, but there is SO much to do in the area.
Excited to watch this new video as we are leaving in a few days for the Grainau area! So much looking forward to the holiday, als because of your videos!
Thanks so much! :D Have a great trip.
Whenever there's a new NFH video you know it's gonna be a good day. 🙏👏👍💯
Awww thank you so much! That really means a lot! :,)

hahahaha why are they like thisssssss
You should definitely do a Berchtesgaden video ⛰️
We have been talking about it for years! One day.

nooooooooooo
we have been there too lol

Glad you didn't push yourself! Hope you have a chance to do it next time!

If you get back to Garmisch-Partenkirchen try the Nougat Cigars at Chocolaterie Amelie if you like hazelnut.
Oh that sounds exactly what I would like :D
Thanks!
Thank you so much! :) We really appreciate this!
Thank YOU so much! Your videos have resolved so many issues with our trip planning! We appreciate all of your work!
I can’t believe that we leave for Germany this Wednesday! Perfect timing for this video👍
That’s awesome! You might need to check out that Garmisch compilation I mentioned too :) we’ve got a lot of cool stuff in the area for you to watch
We stayed in Ga pa just two weeks ago . What’s the name of this river ? Where’s it with reference to the train station and Zugspitze bahn station please ?
@@sutapabaksi9152 The river is the Loisach. It runs behind Garmisch.
@@NearFromHome thanks

I would say it was a normal very good schnitzel. Drei Mühlen is by far my favorite!
@@NearFromHome It looked good, but I agree with you, Drei Mühlen is my favorite too. And another reason to go there, the Augustiner Bier. Thanks for the reply!
Thank you for the video. Now I'm hungry. 😁
Are you ready to discover the Höllentalklamm gorge this year or are you still worried about the sometimes somewhat airy views?
Höllentalklamm is simply amazing, and can be done as an in-and-out walk without any problems, and this is from someone who is petrified of drops!
@@M.G.74
I agree, if you skip the Stangensteig and thus get to enjoy the gorge twice.
Hiking a little further into the Höllental beyond the hut can also be worthwhile.
I didn't know about the drops Lol we just haven't gotten to it, but this is the first I'm hearing of drops.....lol so maybe we wont ;)
Good to know!
@@NearFromHome slight misunderstanding; if there was exposure to drops I wouldn't have been anywhere near it! You've done Highline 179 - something I never could. You'll be fine!!

Amazing I wish I'd seen this video last year before I visited GaPa... 🥲
:,) Next time!
Another fantastic video! We can't wait to get down there and check out all of these places! Hopefully soon...🤞
:) Thanks so much!
Another good and informative video, looking forward to the next one…
Thanks so much!
btw, I like your videos. :)

Aweseom! Camille is always looking for new coffee places! Will check it out. Thanks so much!
I want an edelweiss cap too!
They are from Bavarian Caps! You can get them on their website or they have a few brick and mortar locations.
Y’all are always making it difficult for me to plan trips because there’s so much that you’re making me want to visit. Also, I’m pro-sauce… so sauce those schnitzels.😂
lol thank you!
I am gong to strat incorporating 'Sauce those Schnitzels' into my daily like lol
Awesome video. My wife and I are coming to the Edelweiss Lodge in Garmisch this August for 11 days. We love the area and food. Thanks for the Wonderful ideas for a small hike and dinner
cool! I hope you have a nice time!
Are the shops and restaurants open on Sunday? Deciding between Sunday or Monday for a day trip from Munich.
The shops will not be!
