Immediately after arriving at Garmisch-Partenkirchen, visitors will be overwhelmed by the breathtaking mountain views and the stunning surrounding areas. The region has a lot to offer its guests: historic sights, a wide range of excursions, arts and culture, fascinating events, and cuisine ranging from the traditional Bavarian style to organic cooking.

The city hosted the Winter Olympics in 1936 and the Alpine World Ski Championships in 1978 and 2011. Most of the venues like the big Olympic Ski Jump can be visited throughout the year. Walk along the streets in Garmisch-Partenkirchen and explore the alleyways, and with every step, you'll discover a little more of the variety the area has to offer.

Guests will leave with fond memories of this enchanting destination. A day trip to Bavaria's world famous capital Munich is highly recommended, whilst you can also visit King Ludwig's renowned Neuschwanstein Castle or drive over the border to nearby Austria.

Important Notice: Introduction of the EU Schengen Entry/Exit System

Please be advised that, effective from 12th October 2025, a new Entry/Exit System (EES) will be implemented for all travellers entering and exiting the EU and Schengen Area.

This digital system will replace the current manual passport stamping process by electronically recording border crossings for UK nationals and other non-EU travellers.

At this time, no action is required from travellers prior to their journey. We recommend reviewing the official government guidance to understand how this may affect your travel arrangements.
