Town Mittenwald

Mittenwald, a picturesque town in the Bavarian Alps, is a real gem in the midst of breathtaking mountain landscapes. This charming town is located close to the Austrian border and offers a wealth of natural beauty and cultural treasures to delight every visitor.  

Mittenwald's location is spectacular: nestled between the Karwendel mountains to the north and the Wetterstein mountains to the south, it offers a panorama that fascinates hikers, mountaineers and nature lovers alike. The impressive peaks that rise majestically above the town invite you to go on extended hikes and climbing tours. The hike to the Karwendelspitze is particularly popular, offering breathtaking views over the surrounding valleys and peaks.

In addition to the natural attractions, Mittenwald is also known for its picturesque old town. The colourfully painted house facades, known as Lüftlmalerei, are a characteristic feature of the region and give the town a unique charm. The pedestrian zone with its cosy cafés, traditional inns and small shops invites you to stroll and linger. The parish church of St. Peter and Paul with its baroque interior and imposing onion dome, which characterises the townscape, is particularly worth seeing.

Mittenwald also has a lot to offer in terms of cuisine. Bavarian cuisine with its hearty specialities such as pork knuckle, veal sausage and pretzels is omnipresent in the cosy inns. A freshly tapped beer from one of the regional breweries rounds off the culinary experience perfectly.

Whether for nature lovers, culture vultures or active holidaymakers - Mittenwald has something for everyone. The combination of impressive natural scenery, cultural treasures and Bavarian hospitality makes Mittenwald an unrivalled destination in the mountains.
