We want to acknowledge the Riessersee hotel’s gesture of goodwill. We accidentally booked two different hotels for our recentbvisit to Garmisch-Partenkirchen and the hotel rightly charged us for a no show. We brought our unintentional mistake to the attention of hotel management they were kind enough to consider our request for refund and are in the process of paying us back. This shows how customer-centric the management is and we can only imagine how enjoyable our stay would have been had we gone ahead with our booking. Special thanks to Lisa, who empathised with...

Der Blick auf die Berge mit dem Rießersee im Vordergrund ist ganz nett. Einen kleinen Spaziergang kann man hier sicherlich auch gut machen, aber für eine kleine Wanderung gibt es sicherlich schönere/abwechslungsreichere Abschnitte hier in der Gegend. Anreise Man kann entweder auf dem kostenpflichtigen Parkplatz direkt am See parken. Alternativ kann man auch in 15-30min von Garmisch aus laufen (über den Rießerseefussweg). Kurz vor dem See gibt es einen relativ steilen aber gut angelegten Weg den Hang hinauf. Von dort hat man auch einen guten Blick auf Garmisch. Theoretisch müsste man in den Straßen in der Umgebung, z.B. Rießackerstraße auch ganz in der Nähe kostenlos parken können (haben wir selber nicht ausprobiert, nur gesehen).
