"DON'T LOOK DOWN!" as Kathryn continues to look down. Kids these days. I didn't go to Partnach gorge while I was there, but I went to a very similar spot near Interlaken, Switzerland called Aare Gorge, and you're right, it is a lot of fun.

😂 even though it's scary, it's still a great view! There are several beautiful gorges in that area. Most are closed in the winter. Thankfully this one is usually open year round!
I'm glad to be along for your journey's.

I visited that gorge when I was in Germany for college. It was very beautiful, all the walls were covered in ice.
Thank you for introducing us to Garmisch-Partenkirchen! What a picturesque place! That meal looked like reason enough to go to Germany!
That gorge was epic
What a cool hike through the gorge. The water was beautiful! 😊
We love A & K! Blessings from Vancouver Canada

Hi there from Sacramento, California. I have lived in Garmisch when I was young. I remember it being very beautiful.
Love it - much love xxx

Amazing adventure... if I knew about Gorge, I would have gone
I've been to Germany at least three times, but I've never visited the southern part. This really makes me want to visit!! Can't wait for your next video!!

While living in Germany, one of our favorite places was Monschau, followed by Schnitzelbank in Heidelburg which had the best tomaten suppe and of course schnitzel.. But there are sooo many favorite places.

Thank you for your time and posting. Went here in 1975, but it was much more basic. BTW, I lived in Seattle too. I opened two Keg restaurants (Burien and Factoria), the TGI Fridays in Kirkland, and the Metropolitan Grill downtown. Just sayin'. :)
Absolutely amazing 🤩 Matt and I would love to go on an overseas adventure with you guys sometime!!😊
Stunning! Thank you for sharing!❤
We lived in Germany (Berlin) for a few years and always wanted to get to Garmisch-Partenkirchen but never had the chance. It's so pretty!

Although i didn't get to go, my parents went to oberamergau passion play just north of garmisch. My heritage is from a little further north, but this is wonderful country.
Love, love, love Germany and GP! We lived in Germany for three years and skied Garmisch each year. The gorge is a gem! I'm excited to experience it again through you guys! Neuschwanstein castle next?!

You got it! Germany was amazing!
Wow!!! It's like you had the gorge, the restaurant, and the hut to yourselves!! Loved that you had to walk back through the gorge to get out - different perspective than what you saw walking in. Also, so funny as you started to talk about the town, I immediately thought of Leavenworth just before you did. Got to visit there briefly for a couple hours a few summers ago on our way from Seattle to Lake Chelan. This place looks MUCH better!!! Thanks again for sharing!! #travelenvy

The gorge was pretty quiet when we got there, but about half way through there was a school group of at least 50 kids! And yes both the restaurant and hut were very empty...only 1 or 2 other couples there. That's why we sound like we're almost whispering 😂 Yeah Leavenworth is really cool, but it doesn't have anything on these towns. Although we did say to each other that after being to both Leavenworth does do a good job with their architecture and feel. Thank you!
Looks like your are heading to Neuschwanstein next ;-) Garmish-partenkirchen and the surrounding area is awesome! I have the chance to go there every year for one summer week for a work team event. The lake Eibsee is beautiful, and there are so many trails as you mention!

Oh I hope you all make it back to Zugspitze! We did it in summer a few years ago and it was warm but lots of snow on the ground. Did not deter us we walked all the way around the rim up there and the view!!?? Breathtaking! we even found two bottles of beer tucked in the snow. We took one and left the other for some other lucky hikers. Maybe you’ll find some Almdudler in the snow, you never know!

Not on this trip unfortunately
I just came across your channel. this is perfect!! I'm a 70 year old woman and I'm about to start on my own adventure in europe, solo, hostelling, just having a blast!! I visited Garmisch-Partenkirchen when I was a small child. I'm looking forward to returning; there is so much more than the pretty painted houses!! I didn't know that! Question, I have knee replacements in both knees. I can walk up and down hills forever but I have a problem with stairs. The gorge pathway, is it all pathway? are you forced to take steps at any point?

No they are not. It is for me the best part of Germany. All the area in the south boardering Austria with great mountains, scenery, food and peace.
