The south of Bavaria is blessed with a lot of water: the Isar, countless clear mountain lakes and wet gorges. Refreshment on hot summer days is guaranteed on one of these great hikes in the Zugspitz region!\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hike through the H\u00f6llentalklamm \u2013 11 kilometers, approx. 6 hours<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

H\u00f6llentalklamm<\/strong>: That doesn’t exactly sound like fun. However, the name is deceptive, because the gorge in the district of Garmisch-Partenkirchen<\/a> near Grainau<\/strong> is ideal for escaping the summer heat. The starting point of the hike is the hikers’ car park in Hammersbach. From here, it takes about 60 minutes on foot to the H\u00f6llentaleingangsh\u00fctte. Once there, a wondrous natural spectacle awaits you: two gigantic mountain ridges. Between them: the roaring Hammersbach and waterfalls that plunge into the valley. The rock walls rise up a proud 150 meters vertically on both sides. Above the mountain stream, the path is blasted into the rocks, well secured, leading again and again through tunnels and right along the abyss. A head for heights is therefore a prerequisite! You cross the gorge and take the same path back \u2013 with a surprisingly new perspective.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Weatherproof clothing and sturdy shoes are a must for crossing the H\u00f6llentalklamm<\/a>, because cool temperatures can be expected in the gorge even in summer and the paths are extremely wet. One thing is clear: This hike in the Zugspitz region will bring some people to the edge of their strength \u2013 but this adventure is not easily forgotten! The H\u00f6llentalklamm is only open in summer and not in all weathers, so be sure to inform yourself beforehand.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
