Hiking

Along with the Wendelsteinbahn, the Drachenfelsbahn and the Stuttgart cog railway, the Bayerische Zugspitzbahn is one of four cog railways still in operation in Germany. The meter-gauge route leads from the Garmisch-Partenkirchner district of Garmisch to the Zugspitze, the highest mountain in Germany.

Hiking

Personally, I would recommend taking the cable car up to visit the Zugspitze - and down the cog railway. Both have their charms. The ride on the Zahradbahn takes a while, and it could happen in changeable weather that you can no longer see anything above. The tickets can be combined.

Hiking

High with the Zugspitzbahn, down with the rack railway, so you have both experiences (train station is right next to the gondola station)
