2. WHERE + BEST VIEWING SPOT
Best Places to Watch the Bonfires
Mon & Ryan McClure
Ehrwald & Surrounds, Austria
Best Easy Viewing spot (no hiking required)
Where we saw them and recommend:
📍Tiroler Zugspitz Arena / or Bergfeuer Zugspitzarena (type into google maps)
This region sits at the base of the Zugspitze and gives you a full basin view of multiple mountain ranges at once. That’s what makes it different.
There were lots of space and not crowded when we went in 2025, so you have plenty of space to find a base.
Why this spot is so powerful:
Wide, flat valley = unobstructed views
You’re surrounded by mountains on all sides
Multiple fire displays happening simultaneously
Plenty of space (no overcrowding stress)
How to access it (practical detail):
Walk out from Ehrwald town into open fields
Follow small farm paths / walking tracks
Head toward the basin (you’ll see others doing the same)
👉 “Primary Viewing Spot (Our Exact Location) — Head to the flat field area with open basin view, which is just a 10-15 min walk from town
Other easy viewpoints:
Around Ehrwald village centre
Open fields near Lermoos
