Bavarian Alps
The Bavarian Alps are the part of the Northern Limestone Alps along Bavaria's border with Austria, including the Zugspitze, at 2,962 metres the highest mountain in Germany. Resorts such as Garmisch-Partenkirchen and Berchtesgaden lie among them, as do Ludwig II's castles of Neuschwanstein and Linderhof. From the nineteenth century they became one of Europe's favourite holiday regions.
