Dude... I just found your channel. Awesome stuff. Fueling my wanderlust hard!!!!!
:D
Great video! We visited both Garmisch-Partenkirchen and Mittenwald in 2019. I agree with you that Mittenwald is a tad better. I think that your videos are truly the best on TH-cam. So much great info for each place and it's not just the typical tourist cities.
That’s exactly what we’re trying to do, so it’s very encouraging to hear this. 😍🥰 Thanks so much!
A good way to spend the day in the area is to take a bus from the Bahnhof to Ferchensee. Hike around the lake and head back to the Lautersee. There are a couple of places to have lunch, then hike back down to Mittenwald (it's also possible to ride back to Mittenwald from here on the bus that brought you up). Be sure to have a trail map and enjoy lots of mountain and lake views.
We have been meaning to check out those lakes! Will do. 😎
Thank you very much for all the wonderful videos. My husband and I will be in Munich for two weeks in August. I made lots of notes from your recommendations. Keep up the good work.
We went to Mittenwald on a day trip from Reutte last week. Charming town. Thank you for the suggestion! The violin museum was really interesting too.
You're very welcome. Glad you had a nice time. The violin museum is really cool, and often overlooked. :D
We stayed in Mittenwald for 10 days in 2017. it was amazing we visited the whole area but think Mittenwald is the best village in that part of Germany
That sounds like a lot of fun, as there is certainly a lot to do in the area. We were able to produce three videos in just 2 days in the area. :D
I’m from mittenwald. I lived there in the 60th to 70th. That’s when Mittenwald was beautiful. Now it’s over build.
One of the things I see missing is the Dammkartunnel at the top on the Karwendelbahn. This takes you to the Austrian side and has wonderful views toward Schnartz in Austria. It is not well signed at the top but well worth the effort. Awesome overall video and brings back many memories.
Will check out next time. We have been to Scharnitz on our way to the Isar Ursprung, but it's probably even cooler from the mountain top.
Brewery tour is great along with the schnapps museum. We ate at the REWE market really affordable and good food.
We'll have to check that out next time we are there. Haha we hit up Rewe for all our picnics.
Thanks for the great video! I really loved the smaller, cozier feeling of Mittenwald. The canals running through the streets are really nice, and the flowers everywhere were beautiful. I'm excited to see your video about the Karwendalbahn.
Robert Foster Strange that the second comment, the one about Mittenwald, canals, etc. has my name on it but is not my comment. A glitch? Or the 2nd commenter is also named Robert Foster? Which would be bizarrely coincidental.
It's a Robert Foster Battle Royale! Two Roberts will enter, but only one will be correct in regards to their differing opinions on Mittenwald :)
Thanks! We totally forgot to mention, but those little canals are a plus! Good eyes. :D Hopefully the Karwendebahn video will be up in a week!
@@Xmaslightsallyear I was also very confused when I saw your comment. That is why I had to say something too.
Near From Home Regardless, when considering the relative merits of Garmisch, Partenkirchen, and Mittenwald, it's an embarrassment of riches. You can't go wrong.
I suppose if you ski it's about the skiing shop it's about the shopping hike etc . In the summer Mittenwald looks great for a scenic train ride for some ice cream off the beaten path. Enjoyed the video. PS getting there is half the battle at some point you just have to sit down and relax and enjoy being there.
Thanks!
I took note of your sweet REI hat - when you visit Washington state you'll have to rate our Bavarian town of Leavenworth on the Garmisch/Mittenwald scale. Don't miss the Enchantments hike!
🤩 we have been wanting to get out to the PNW. Will check it out when we finally get out there.
Leavenworth is completely fake, local tourist building code drives the look of the buildings, no Bavarian immigrant heritage. It's still great fun to visit, good food and beer, and of course a hub for excellent mountain hiking and rock climbing. This old promo video they did catches the spirit of the place (and my friend in Munich, I'm not sure took it in good humor.) th-cam.com/video/unQz4kFJ2Tg/w-d-xo.html
And yes if you are strong enough to do the Enchantments in a day (hard to win lottery for camping) it is one of the most amazing places I've ever been.
I've been to Garnish but missed Mittenwald. I'll have to catch it next time.
Yes definitely! It’s great. 😎
Thanks!
Thank you so much!!
Well done video as always and with such engaging narration. You hardly mention Partenkirchen. Have you not walked Ludwigstrasse in Partenkirchen? It is by far the most compellingly colorful and evocative street of the whole Garmisch Partenkirchen área in my view. I've always stayed at the Fraundorfer on Ludwigstrasse. Wonderful walking street, beautifully Bavarian. I much prefer Partenkirchen to Garmisch. Partenkirchen has a much stronger sense of tradition and sense of place.
Thanks so much! I completely agree. I always get the sense that Partenkirchen is a quiet and cute town. I appreciate that its existence isn't solely catered to tourism like Garmisch. For the sake of brevity and clarity in the comparison, we sort of condensed the two town centers seeing as the video is already quite long compared to our others. However, we covered the 2 town centers of Garmisch and Partenkirchen a little at the very end of the Zugspitze video from way back. Hopefully, we did Partenkirchen more justice there!
🇨🇦💎🇨🇦🇨🇦💎 With this video The Obercommandant is really spoiling us. 🇨🇦💎🇨🇦🇨🇦💎🇨🇦
Thank you 💕
Thanks for the video. If you have time, do visit North Rhine-Westphalia, it is one of the beautiful places in Germany to visit. For example Aachen, Monschau, Nationalpark Eifel, Bonn and Koln..and a lot :)
We hope to see more than just Bavaria in the coming years. We did visit Köln and Düsseldorf a few years ago, but sadly this was long before we started making videos.
I like this video so much
Thanks so much! If you liked this one check out our video on Weltenburg. We've gotten way better at making videos since this one!
I lived there for 30 years ❤
wow. I'm kinda jealous. :O
8:44 what are the odds that I went there and stayed in a bed and breakfast and recognize _that specific dog_
lololol. Well, I'm fairly certain I saw that dog on an earlier trip to Mittenwald before this video was shot. :D I guess he lives there. haha
another great vid ,we will now be heading there in 5 weeks, thanks for the tips
Thanks so much! Have a wonderful time!
If you had to stay in one town in the Bavarian alps would it be mittenwald ? We want to go September time looking beautiful scenery nice hikes and some restaurants and bars
That's such a difficult question! Maybe Mittenwald, but I think Garkisch-Partenkirchen is better connected. Also, you're not going to get a huge selection of bars and restaurants outside of Munich. Probably one or two in these small towns.
Made me want to live in germany more.
It really is beautiful! :D
Seeing you live there, probably not an issue for either of you, but do you see tourists from the US or England (or other English only speakers) struggle in these smaller towns like Mittenwald or Garmisch with any language barriers? Thank you for all the great content!! Heading to Munich in May of '23 and really looking forward to a day trip outside of the city.
No, the English level in Mittenwald and Garmisch is really excellent! These really aren‘t tiny villages. They‘re rather large towns used to accommodating tourists. The only issue you might run into is communicating with taxi drivers in the area.
You mentioned a beneath the mountain video. Is it still posted? I searched for it but couldn't find it. Thanks!
If we're talking about the Karwendelspitze in Mittenwald, that's this one!

Thanks for watching! :)
Buy the BAVARIA day pass to save $? Only good for trains after 9 AM.on weekdays and all day weekends. Good value.😊
It’s been great value for me for over 5 years. Until the Deutschland Ticket.
I trinken every Klam have their oown kind of Magie, Mittenwald, Garmisch Partenkirchen or Oberstdorf
Yes, hahah they are everywhere
Are there any buses from Mittenwald to Garmisch, as I tried to find trains on DB but it's difficult to find out. Can you suggest where to go from Munich for 1 week. Thanks
The train from Munich to GP and then to Mittenwald is currently down. The replacement line currently involves 2 buses and two trains. I wouldn’t recommend that for a day trip or base as long as the line is down. GP is a great base of operation!
@@NearFromHome Thank you! Much appreciated.
Love your videos, would appreciate if you show how to reach different places in town from Google maps, if short cut or tough to find for example i had a tough experience finding Eibsee after i got over at Zugspitze Bahnhof, i didn't knew i had to take a different train from there 😂
Anyways, i really like these videos as i am knowing new places and tips to travel ☺️
What time of year was this?
I believe late spring
i have lived in that society i know how nice good with heart Germany Austria swiss areas are, not all of eu but these areas are very good.. not even usa as of now total in mess chaos mismangment.
They are very nice!
how many days you spend there?
Just a day, as it’s quite small. Maybe a day and half if you want to add a trip to the Karwendelspitze
