Sortie rapide à vélo de Garmisch-Partenkirchen à Grainau

This scenic cycling route starts in Garmisch-Partenkirchen, a beautiful Bavarian town famous for its alpine views and as the gateway to Zugspitze, Germany’s highest mountain. You’ll set off on mostly quiet roads and smooth asphalt, making for a comfortable ride—even for casual cyclists. The path winds gently upwards, with a steady but manageable ascent of around 137 meters, offering up fresh mountain air and stunning glimpses of the Wetterstein mountains.

After roughly 8 kilometers, you’ll roll into Grainau. This charming village sits in the shadow of Zugspitze and is a perfect base for outdoor adventures—so don’t be surprised if you spot a few hikers or mountain bikers gearing up! The journey is almost entirely on paved or asphalt surfaces, with just a short section missing data, and the traffic stays low-key. Take a moment at the end to enjoy Grainau’s peaceful vibe and maybe treat yourself to a lakeside view at nearby Eibsee. It’s a great little ride with lots of alpine character!
