Why go
The castle that inspired the Disney silhouette, in alpine foothills.
Neuschwanstein is heavily visited and needs timed tickets booked ahead, but Garmisch and the Zugspitze give the region real depth. Winter and summer are both strong.
Signature experiences
- Neuschwanstein Castle with a timed ticket
- Zugspitze summit by cable car
- Partnach Gorge walk
