When we went, we paid 25 EUR one way to the top, had lunch there, did a small hike to the lake and walk back down. We recommend doing it like this!

Welcome to the Ehrwalder Almbahn, your gateway to an incredible mountain experience right at the foot of the mighty Zugspitze. A comfortable 8-person gondola will whisk you up to the Ehrwalder Alm at 1,500 meters, where a paradise for active holidaymakers awaits. In winter, you'll find a family-friendly ski area with 27.5 kilometers of beautifully prepared slopes, a snow park, and cozy huts perfect for a warm drink. During the summer, the Alm transforms into a stunning landscape of hiking and mountain biking trails, with the crystal-clear Almsee lake just a short walk from the mountain station, offering a perfect spot for relaxation and soaking in the panoramic views.
