situated at an altitude of 920 m, it is one of the most beautiful mountain villages of the Alps and very well known because of its skilled violin manufacturers. Here you will enjoy an impressive mountain scenery, a picturesque town center with pedestrian area and some very nice historic places. Perfect village to enjoy many activities - during the summertime: hiking, climbing, cycling, canoeing and swimming in one of the romantic lakes nearby and during the wintertime: skiing, snowboarding, cross country skiing or sledding down special slopes. A chairlift up to the Kranzberg and a funicular up to the Karwendel makes it easy to get up and down.
Once in Mittenwald you can choose bet-
ween the many cozy restaurants with typical Bavarian or international specialties.
Mittenwald is also a perfect starting point for many trips between Munich and Innsbruck, such as the fairytale castles of King Ludwig II, beautiful villages like Ettal with its Abbey, Oberammergau well known for its woodcarvings, Garmisch-Partenkirchen at the foot of the Zugspitze, highest mountain of Germany (see in “surroundings”)
