Road tripping in Germany - 5 - Eibsee

 Our next destination was Eibsee lake at the bottom of Zugspitze which is the tallest mountain in Germany. It was just 45 kms away from our base in Pensberg. The drive as always was beautiful!

The Zugspitze is located in the Bavarian Alps near the border of Germany and Austria. It is part of the Wetterstein mountain range. The mountain is accessible by several means, including a cogwheel railway, a cable car, and hiking trails. 

We did not go to the top as we had a baby with us and the queues for all means of transport to the peak were very long. 

We preferred to walk around Eibsee lake at the bottom of Zugspitze mountain and surrounded by the Alps range. It was a wonderful walk as the photos below will prove.

Eibsee is a tranquil and picturesque destination that allows visitors to immerse themselves in the beauty of the Bavarian Alps. Whether you're seeking outdoor adventures or simply wish to relax and take in the stunning natural surroundings, Eibsee is a great place to visit in southern Germany.
