When you hear Garmisch-Partenkirchen, you might think of skiing, winter sports, and snowy fun. But even in the summer, at the foot of the Zugspitze, there's a lot to offer: high mountains, crystal-clear streams, deep blue lakes. Our family youth hostel is the ideal starting point for families, school classes, and groups. Not only that, our hostel is also an Alpine study center. Learn from and with nature in our midst.

Enjoy the mountains – in every season
When the snow arrives, the fun begins in one of the most significant winter sports destinations. Whether you're an experienced snow king or a newcomer to the snow, our ski courses will get everyone on the slopes. Enjoy the mountains through alpine or cross-country skiing, snowshoe hikes, sledding, ice skating, curling, and ice hockey.

When winter takes a break, it's time for hiking enthusiasts. Explore the mountains through the endless hiking trails in the Wetterstein Mountains. Let your gaze wander over the breathtaking landscape. Discover the beauty that awaits you:

• The Wank
• The Zugspitze
• The Partnach Gorge
• The Werdenfels Castle Ruins
• And much more.

Marvel, discover, experience with all your senses.
