A heavenly place above the Karwendel massif
Also always an eyecatcher: the traditional trompe-l-oeuil paintings on the houses in the village, making every house a piece of art. And speaking of art - the Mittenwald violin makers produce true pieces of musical art here. Apart from that, Ettal Abbey, Linderhof Palace and Wieskirche chapel are not far, either.
Winter dream at the massif
Always worth a visit: the winter paradise round about Mittenwald, covered in metres of snow.
The ski resorts of Garmisch-Partenkirchen and atop Germany's highest mountain, Zugspitze, attract many visitors. And so do the ski courses on Kranzberg mountain.
