Over thousands of years the mountain stream Partnach, fed by the meltwater of the Schneeferner on the Zugspitze massif, has milled itself deep into the rock and created a gorge up to eighty metres deep, through which a path hewn into the stone leads. Where the water roars between the narrow walls and in winter mighty icicles hang from the rocks, a natural spectacle arises that fascinated the Romantics from early on.<\/p>\n<p>Its present-day accessibility the gorge owes to a thoroughly practical occasion: originally the wild gorge was used to drive felled timber and hay down into the valley from the rear valley basins, which was dangerous work. In 1912 the Partnachklamm was finally opened up as a natural monument and made accessible to visitors. Above the gorge opens the Reintal, which leads as a long, gentle ascent to the Zugspitze, the highest mountain in Germany. Thus the Partnachklamm forms at the same time the roaring gateway to one of the great mountain tours of the region.<\/p>\n<div style=\"background:#221c1a;color:#fff;border-radius:10px;padding:18px 22px;margin-top:28px;\"><strong style=\"font-size:1.08em;\">Related<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:6px 0 12px;color:#d8d2cc;font-size:14px;\">To make your trip run smoothly , our guides and gear tips for this destination:<\/p>\n<div style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:10px;\"><a href=\"\/en\/wanderschuhe\/\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f25353;color:#fff;padding:9px 16px;border-radius:6px;text-decoration:none;font-weight:600;font-size:14px;\">Hiking boots \u2192<\/a><a href=\"\/en\/schichtenprinzip-bekleidung\/\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f25353;color:#fff;padding:9px 16px;border-radius:6px;text-decoration:none;font-weight:600;font-size:14px;\">Layering guide for clothing \u2192<\/a><a href=\"\/en\/packliste-tages-bergwanderung\/\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f25353;color:#fff;padding:9px 16px;border-radius:6px;text-decoration:none;font-weight:600;font-size:14px;\">Day-tour packing list \u2192<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Die Partnachklamm bei Garmisch-Partenkirchen ist eine rund 700 m lange, bis zu 80 m tiefe Schlucht, durch die die Partnach tost. \u00dcber in den Fels gehauene Wege und Tunnel f\u00fchrt der gesicherte Steig durch die enge Klamm.
