Tiroler Zugspitzbahn — Attraction in Ehrwald

Plan for a full day trip. Jackets preferred even in summer. Seilbahnen are expensive. Try trekking one way if very adventures. It's tough though. Can travel to top and trek to another location nearby for approx 2 hours and return. View is amazing and restaurants are available on top which is expensive as well because of the location. It was crowded when we visited. Cable cars are empty if used during odd hours. Cable car from Austria is cheaper than the German one.

The food is good, but the view when seated next to the windows is fantastic. In the summer time there are evenings (usually Thu) when they offer fondue dinners. The night view is different, but as nice (and romantik). Walking up is possible, but it requires a solid fitness and it will take you 6-8 hrs. Not recommended with young children. In winter time you can ski on the plateau (most of the glacier is gone), in summer time this area is...
