Description of mountain:
Zugspitze, at 2,962 meters, is the highest peak of the Wetterstein group and also Germany's highest mountain. It lies south of Garmisch-Partenkirchen on the border between Austria (Tyrol) and Germany (Bavaria). On the German side is the Münchener Haus hut, while the Austrian side has the Panorama Gipfelrestaurant. Three cable cars ascend to the summit, often making it crowded. The eastern summit with its cross is on the German side. Beneath the slopes lie the glaciers Höllentalferner, Südliche Schneeferner, and Nördliche Schneeferner—the last being Germany's largest at 8.4 hectares.
