Bayerische Zugspitzbahn Cogwheel Train

An alternative way to reach the Zugspitze summit, this historic cogwheel train departs from Garmisch-Partenkirchen, travels through the valley, enters a tunnel, and emerges at the glacier plateau (2,600 m). From there, a short cable car ride (Gletscherbahn) completes the journey to the summit. It offers a nostalgic and scenic journey. Operating since 1930. Travel time to glacier plateau is approx. 70 minutes. Same ticket prices as Eibsee Cable Car.
