Garmisch Partenkirchen
Garmisch-Partenkirchen–the postcard perfect Bavarian region with sky-high mountains, deep gorges, and wildflower fields.
Partnach Gorge
The Partnach Gorge surprised me. Its history as a logging transport route helped shape the region and just standing next to the rushing waters is awe-inspiring. The lower path puts you just meters above the roaring waves so be prepared to get a little wet!
Local Bavarian Cuisine at Restaurant Gasthof Fraundorfer
For a local eating experience, the Gasthof Frandorfer is a part show, part dinner. Locals & tourists flock so make sure to make a reservation at one of the big tables for an evening of song, dance and large plates of local meat. We came on a Father’s Day in Germany and had a very […]

Dallmayr: Munich’s Luxury Food Hall
A family owned business with some of the most famous coffee in all of Europe, Dallmayr has every delicious specialty food you could want–from fresh produce, fish, meats, homemade breads and the sweets—oh the sweets! I took home a box of their sugary fruit gelees as well as their local honeys. But trust me, I […]
Munich’s Best Beergarden
In my opinion, Munich’s Best Beer Garden is the Wirsthaus at BavariaPark, and believe me, that is high praise. Munich is home to some of the best beer gardens, large & small, indoors & out. This one really struck me because of it’s laid back “locals-only” atmosphere, naturally beautiful landscape, very good food and of […]
