Meilerhütte Ascent

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Personally, I liked the ascent from the other side (Leutasch) better, as it was much more lonely and alpine. This is quite comfortable (condition required for the several meters of altitude) on a safe climb with a great view of the Zugspitze Group.

3 to 3, not exposed. However, the entire tour is already suspended in various places! Not marked, but easy to find with a stone mandrel or drill hook

Meilerhütte

Highlight • Mountain Hut

Already since 1909 the hut sits in airy height at the Dreitorspitzgatterl directly on the Wetterstinkamm. The hut with the magnificent view is operated by the Garmisch-Partenkirchen section of the German Aplenverein and offers sleeping accommodation to 81 climbers.

From the hut you can undertake high-alpine climbing tours to the Partenkichner and Leutascher three-pointed peaks.

You can find more information about the hut at alpenverein.de/DAV-Services/Huettensuche/Meilerhuette/6938763.

King's House at Schachen

Highlight • Castle

This is definitely one of the most beautiful vantage points in the Garmisch area. However, the way to the castle is quite slow. By mountain bike on the farm road an absolute highlight!
But be careful, by mid-May, there is definitely snow, because little sunny side and plenty of shade through the surrounding mountains
