Running along Germany’s southern border with Austria, the Bavarian Alps are one of the country’s most beautiful areas. Skiing is, naturally, one of the favorite pastimes. You’ll find Germany’s tallest mountain, Zugspitze, rising more than 9,700 feet in the Garmisch-Partenkirchen district (also a great hiking area in summer). Berchtesgadener Land (home to Watzmann, Germany’s third-highest peak) is another major ski area. Hochwanner, the country’s #2 mountain, is also in the Alps.

We arrived in this beautiful village on the day they were bringing the goats down from the mountains, and it was very busy with tourists; lining the street after finding out what was going on , we also waited patiently for them. A while later and still no goats l decided to go see the church ...oh WOW what a beautiful church, l didn't expect to see in this small village . Its beautiful; with its architecture and frescoes, & painted ceiling all lovingly restored. The pews have name plates on them in German Gothic. It was nice to see it without all the crowd and really appreciate all the workmanship that has gone into all the wood cravings as well. You must stop by if visiting this village, you cannot miss it , right by the hand painted tower .
