The Zugspitz mountain railway has been reliably transporting locals and tourists from all over the world to the Zugspitze since 1930. From the Garmisch-Partenkirchen valley station, the line still runs on normal tracks to Grainau. From here, the actual cogwheel railway drives the carriages up to the Zugspitzplatt mountain station. The Zugspitzbahn covers a total of 1,838 metres in altitude - from 705 metres up to 2,588 metres - and also passes through a tunnel over four kilometres long. From the Zugspitzplatt, a cable car then takes you up to the 2,962 metre-high eastern summit of the Zugspitze - the highest point in Germany. |
