I lived in oberammergau for 3 years and went to garmisch practically every weekend. I've been to eibsee countless times, and if you go during the off-season, you are literally alone with your own thoughts and the beautiful nature that envelopes you. You can have your cake and bier back in garmisch in any of its hundreds of pubs.

When I was there a couple of years ago, I took the train from Munchen to Grainau - you have to walk about 800m to the town, but what a beautiful walk it was. I love this part of Germany. The walk back from Eibsee to Grainau through the forest, with all the little lakes is beautiful.

I've been working on it! Though the North Bank of Eibsee is essentially shooting pics in a barrel, hard to go wrong.
@Joelina456
@Joelina456 3 года назад
I was there today (July 6th) and it looks a MILLION times better than in your videos. On all sides aka south bank was mesmorizing too. I think it depends on the angle and intensity of the sun which influences how the water color looks. So in the SUMMERTIME the whole lake looks like the carribean and 360° degrees around I could not stop taking pictues. So bottom line: it is worth the hype in the summertime!!!! :-)
@NearFromHome
@NearFromHome 3 года назад
I think I might still have to respectfully disagree ;) lol. Eibsee is cool for sure, but compared to all the others I’ve been to it’s not in my top 5. I do think it’s a great jumping off point to inspire some deeper exploration though. My latest series that I’m editing now is all about the Lake District of Austria, so if you are looking for some unique lake trips this summer then stick around as I’ve found some gems.
@sabauanda
@sabauanda 3 года назад
I agree with u, the north shore is a stunner😍I think Eibsee is great for taking pictures, but Tegernese is my favourite as you have a lot more trails and things to do around it😁 I personally like Hintersee as well😉love your videos guys, hubbie and I went to Weltenburg Kloster last weeeknd based on your video, sadly the restaurant was closed but the panoramic view from above was great!!!
@NearFromHome
@NearFromHome 3 года назад
I agree with all three of those lake opinions. We even made a Tegernsee video over the summer. :D We went to Hintersee as well, but ended up not making a video about it. It was beautiful nonetheless. Glad you went to Weltenburg! You'll have the return for the food. It's really excellent.

Really enjoy your videos and what you share! This will be very helpful for my wife and I as we are staying in Garmisch-Partenkirchen in May. On your bike trip, was it easy to store your bike and where did you find a place? We are debating between a Vespa and E-bike. Do the rental places include helmets? Thank you!
@NearFromHome
@NearFromHome 3 месяца назад
I’d go with the e-bike over a Vespa any day. With a scooter you’ll be stuck on the roads with the cars, on an e-bike you’ll be on trails in the fields. Incomparable if you ask me :) and yes they have helmets and everything you’ll need…..except GoPro mounts :(

I"ve been planning my trip to Munich using your videos. Do you think this bike ride is possible with a 3 year old kid for people who haven't ridden bikes in 15+ years? Do these e-bike shops rent out trailers for children? Are there bathrooms in route (child is potty training...makes for a tough vacation!)
@NearFromHome
@NearFromHome Год назад
Honestly I’m not sure. I’ve never had to travel with a child so I lack the perspective. You could definitely call the bike shop and ask about child trailers. They aren’t uncommon in the area, but I’ve never paid attention to whether you could rent them. I wouldn’t expect toilets along the way, not at the drop of the hat, but there are some wooded sections and if you go by a restaurant that’s open then you’ll have some options.

Is it possible to walk from Garmisch to Eibsee? Google says it's a 2 hour walk but wouldn't mind if it's nice scenerary along the way.
@NearFromHome
@NearFromHome 11 месяцев назад
I think so. It might taken longer than 2 hours, as there is some elevation near the end of the trail. I do think a bike is a better use of time.

We spent 2 weeks in Germany in August and Munich was home base. We saw Heidelberg(super), Regensburg, Salzburg, Noerdlingen, Fussen (the castle). Sadly, we did not get to the Eagle's Nest Berchtesgaden, Mittenwald or Garmisch P. Still had a great time. However, it seems to me that if you want mountains and lakes in Europe you really go one place?? Switzerland! Switzerland! Switzerland! Austria more than Germany too! Tourists? Tourists = economy! Period! To save money? Go and do what the locals do? We may go to the places we missed that I mention before going into Switzerland but it seems to me that Switzerland is where it is at mountain wise. Cheers!😊
@NearFromHome
@NearFromHome 6 месяцев назад
Yeah Switzerland would be nice to visit. One day I’ll make a trip out there, but it’s hard to squeeze in amongst everything else I want to do. So we just haven’t prioritised it. Unfortunately it’s both too close and too far. I can’t visit Switzerland in a day or weekend trip, but if I’m taking a week off work to go somewhere, I’d rather go somewhere more different to my home like Turkey or Italy. So maybe one day I’ll go. Who knows when.

@NearFromHome 3 года назад
I would say so. The entire path around the lake is flat, crushed gravel. I don't think it would be too difficult with a baby sling. It might also be popular with a pram. but I can't quite remember if there are any roots that would pack pushing difficult. :)
@volkerbauer1974

Hi U2 I just did a really cool museum that I think you'd like. So I thought I have to write immediately. It is the Erinnerungsort BADEHAUS in Waldram which is the sourhern bit of Wolfratshausen. You can easily get there by S-Bahn and bus. It's about the camp of displaced persons after the war that Existenz here and it has a lot of oral history bits. If you wanted to turn it into a day trip you could take in the Nazi achitecture in Waldram and then walk down to the Isar. Don't stay on the main path but go down right to the river shore you can either walk back to Wolfratshausen, yet that is a bit difficult to navigate, ( there are walks to be found in the app Komoot) or turn right when you hit the river and walk towatds Geretsried. That is were the Nazis had built the weapons factory, for which Waldram was originally built to house the workers. In Geretsried some of the old bunkers have been convrted into houses, very odd. Then go to the town nuseum there that gives you the history on the weapons factory. Then take the bus back to Wolfratshausen, stroll trough the town, have something to eat, a beer or an icecream, then go up the Bergwald, look at the house where the poet Rilke had his love nest, then go to the Golf course for views and cakes, you can see the farm where the author Wiechert burried his manuscripts so the Nazis would not find them, then take the Kreuzweg back down again. You can take a detour to where the castle once stood before it blew up. Then take the S-Bahn back home. Most probably it is not a trip tourist would do, but you, as a local, might find it interesting. If you do it, let me know, what you thought of it. 😀
