Day 44 of our 97-day backpacking trip through Europe took us to the absolute highest point in Germany—the incredible Zugspitze, right above Garmisch-Partenkirchen in the Bavarian Alps 🏔️🇩🇪

In this vlog, we take the Seilbahn Zugspitze cable car to the summit, stand next to the golden cross at the top of Germany, and explore the Zugspitze Glacier (Platz). We mix stunning 4K cinematic footage, practical travel info, and a bit of humor—including a funny skit, reactions to the views, and some honest reflections.

We also share how to get to Zugspitze, what the experience is like at the summit platform, the glacial lake below, and include reviews from both of us—including Sophia’s final thoughts on whether it was worth it.

If you’re planning a trip to southern Germany, researching Zugspitze logistics, or just want to see unreal Alpine scenery, this video blends real travel moments with helpful insight and unforgettable views.
