Just three kilometers southeast of Garmisch-Partenkirchen is the wild and romantic Partnachklamm, the Partnach Gorge.
This dramatic and rocky gorge on the River Partnach is 702 meters long and reaches depths of more than 80 meters. While wonderful to explore at any time of year, winter brings with it additional beauty in the guise of massive ice formations that cling to the cliff faces.
Another notable gorge is Höllentalklamm, just six kilometers southwest of Garmisch-Partenkirchen.
