Garmisch-Partenkirchen Travel Tip:
Partnach Gorge
Partnach Gorge
The Partnach Gorge, or Partnachklamm, acts as a natural conduit for the Partnach River and runs 700 meters or 2,305 feet between limestone walls that reach 80 meters (262 feet) high. A series of galleries and tunnels has been carved out of the rock along one side, allowing visitors to walk along the rushing river and duck behind waterfalls. The gorge is open year-round except for a short time in the spring when melting snow makes the route impassable.
To reach the gorge, walk, drive, or take local bus 1 or 2 from central Garmisch or Partenkirchen to the Olympic Ski Stadium. From there, follow the signs for the 30-minute walk into the Partnach Gorge. Transportation by horsedrawn carriage is available for a modest fee.
Admission: Adults: €2, or €1.50 with a Visitor's Card. Children 5-16: €1. Disabled visitors: €1.
