At 2,962 metres, the Zugspitze summit towers above every other mountain in Germany. Thanks to convenient mountain lifts, not only enduring mountaineers but also visitors from all over the world can enjoy the glacier feeling, panoramic views of the four countries and summit gastronomy. The ultra-modern Zugspitze cable car, the timeless cog railway and the glacier railway make the Zugspitze a perfectly accessible excursion destination. At the very top of Germany's most beautiful "roof terrace", you can enjoy up to 250 kilometres of distant views and a unique 360° panorama of 400 Alpine peaks in Germany, Austria, Italy and Switzerland at eye level with the golden summit cross. In winter, skiers and snowboarders carve down finely groomed natural snow slopes on the 2,600 metre-high Zugspitzplatt. The sun-kissed winter paradise has the right descent for every ability level. For a well-earned refreshment stop, head to the Sonnalpin, the Gletschergarten or Panorama 2962.
