photos around GAP - 8 -
by MrBill
These do not really count as tips, but then again, what is better than a good photo to tell a story? One of the things that always pains me is when I see fields paved over to make way for new developments. Germany does not have enough green space in any case, and especially in GAP and the mountains, they need more not less. There are numerous grocery stores in GAP, and many vacant buildings in the main center. It broke my heart to see another grocery store being built outside GAP on the way to Grainau, where there used to be fields and a horse farm. It was along the river and across from the campsite. This type of indiscriminate development is further ruining the character of GAP, and is completely unnecessary. People will not eat more food just because there are more grocery stores. One steals market share from the other, and the net loss is to the quality of life in and around GAP.
Kramerspitze-A Verrrry Long Hike
by KellyN24
If you are looking for a challenge, or just a little exercise, climb to the top of the Kramerspitze. It took us about 5 hrs to get to the top. There's a restaurant a little more than halfway up that serves excellent German 'pancakes'. Gorgeous views from the top-definitely must be in shape to do this!!
Gelato Italiano!
by lareina about Eiscafe Bellini
Eiscafe Bellini is a terrific authentic Italian ice cream/coffee shop in Partenkirchen near the Bahnhof. Their ice cream is made in-house and is the best gelato in town. They specialize in elaborate ice cream dishes, but they also sell single scoops. If ice cream doesn't appetize you, they also serve panini, tiramisu, and various pastries. They serve espresso drinks, juices, beer, liquors, and milkshakes. The patio seating is available in warm weather. Great place to while away time with friends or alone.
Look up!
by Beausoleil
As you walk through Garmisch looking at all the cute stores and beautifully painted buildings, don't forget to look up. The town is surrounded by magnificent mountains. When you get lost in thought and suddenly look up, it's a bit of a shock to see these huge mountains looming over the town.
