[2025 Grainau Attraction] Travel Guide for Eibsee Lake (Updated May)

1: Lake Eibsee 2: Saarschleife 3: Bacharach 4: Garmisch-Partenkirchen Very beautiful places to visit though it might get a little bit cold during this period. Make sure to have your layers ready. An umbrella or waterproof layer could turn out useful as there was quite a lot of rainfall. The fall foilage were spectacular during this period. Though it was raining, we braved the weather and did a few hikes. As soon as we reached the spots, the skies cleared up a little and we managed to absorb the beauty of it all! Lake Eibsee, in close proximity to Zugspitze was the most unexpectedly gorgeous spots we visited. Very beautiful trekking paths through the lush plantations and a great view of the mountain reflected on the water body if you find the right spot! #fallingforfall #tripblazers #nationalpark #awesomepic

#newyearadventure Eibsee ("yew lake") is a lake in Bavaria, Germany, 9 km southwest of Garmisch-Partenkirchen and roughly 100 km southwest of Munich. It is 973.28 metres (3,193.2 ft) above sea-level and its surface area is 177.4 hectares (438 acres). It is at the northerly base of the Zugspitze (2,950 metres (9,680 ft) above sea level and 3.5 km to the south), Germany's highest mountain. The lake lies within the municipality of Grainau and is privately-owned. Directly at the bottom of the Zugspitze, lies one of the most beautiful lakes in the Bavarian Alps - the Eibsee. Formed more than 3000 years ago by a landslide, the mountain lake offers a variety of sporting activities and excursions. In winter, the Eibsee with its picturesque winter landscape is absolutely worth seeing. The Eibsee circular trail is also passable in winter. In January, the lake is often completely frozen which gives the landscape something magical.

Before you should try your first beer and get some classical Bavarian food, it is a must do to walk around this lake next to the highest mountain of Germany! #scenicspotguide #travelinspiration #germany

Stunning views. Great hiking path. Surrounded by nature and mountains. Definitely worth the trip and hour and a half hike!

Because of the rain and mountain fog, we changed our original plan to go to Zugspitze and decided to hike around Eibsee instead. There are many small paths on the lakeside walking trail. I saw that many people stepped on them (they became paths). After all, it is a wild forest with a good ecology. When picking mushrooms, you must be careful ⚠️They are all poisonous mushrooms and cannot be eaten! Not edible! Not edible! Just for fun!

Bavaria, Germany is a beautiful place comparable to Switzerland in terms of scenery. Located at the foot of the Alps, there are countless beautiful mountains and lakes here. The enchanting lake and mountain scenery have made it a popular tourist destination in recent years. In Bavaria, there is a high mountain lake, known as one of the most beautiful lakes in Germany. The lake surface here is blue and clear, like a sapphire embedded in the green forest Here is Lake Eibsee, which is not large in size but is backed by Germany's highest peak, Zugspitze. Not only is the scenery here stunning, but it is also relatively unknown and lacks large tourist groups. This hidden gem seems to be known only by locals. Lake Aibo is surrounded by snow-capped mountains, and its water is melted ice and snow from the Alps, hence the blend of blue and green and its clarity. The lake is surrounded by dense forests, tranquil and peaceful. When you come to the lake, all the clutter and worries in your heart will naturally dissipate. Germans who love sunbathing come to the lake to sunbathe, drink beer, and enjoy the beautiful scenery, enviable life. As long as there is sunshine, they will spontaneously take off their clothes and only wear swimsuits or bikinis, lying by the lake, intimately connecting with nature. Due to the fact that the lake water comes from high mountain snow, even during the hottest time of summer, the lake water is still bone-chillingly cold. However, Germans are not afraid of this at all, and they take off their clothes and dive into the water one after another. Many bikini beauties come here to swim and sunbathe, creating a wonderful realm of unity between man and nature. This man really knows how to have fun. With a bottle of beer and a floating bed, he lies flat on the lake, swaying with the wind and getting lost in the moment. This German-style "lying flat" attitude towards life is worth learning from and emulating. We walked along the lakeside, taking photos as we went. Sometimes we walked through dense forests, feeling the sunlight filtering through the treetops, casting dappled shadows and lush greenery all around. The cool breeze blew through the woods, the air was fresh, and it was so quiet that we could only hear the sound of our own footsteps. Our hearts suddenly became calm, completely immersed in the beautiful scenery around us. The beautiful scenery of the lake area is vivid and green, attracting many new couples to come here specifically for wedding photos. By the lake and in the dense forest, let this pure land and water witness love, which is definitely the most romantic thing in the world.

#snowscape A beautiful lake at the foot of the snow-covered Alps. There is a gravel walkway that goes around the lake. The lake water is calm, and the beautiful snowy mountains are reflected on the surface of the lake. The water is so clear that you can see all the way to the bottom. The cable car that goes down from the top of Zugspitze is a great photo spot where you can see the whole of Eibsee! #breathtakingview #tripmemory2022 #coupletrip #christmas #wintertrip #trip2022 #overseastrip #snowmountain #lake #germany #munich #Eibsee #snowmountain #snowscape

Garmisch-Partenkirchen was a nice place and I hope everyone vist. We went to lakes and was a beautiful place for relaxing and walking. I recommend all of you to visit it and it's so beautiful place.

#passionpassport The Bavarian Alps is a must see and easily accessed from Munich. Grainau is located at the foot of the Zugspitze, Germany’s tallest mountain. A bike ride around Eibsee lake is out of this world and you can take a well deserved swim in the crystal clear Alpine waters to cool off. Another must do activity is to take the traditional cog-wheel train or the modern chair lift to the top of Zugspitze - the terrain and views are incredible! #staycation #gooutside #infinitypool #mountainview #germany #travel
