SHERIDAN, WYOMING – May 25, 2026 – One of Bavaria's most beloved mountain destinations just got an even more compelling reason to visit this summer. From May 22, 2026, overnight guests in Garmisch-Partenkirchen can unlock a 30% discount on the Garmisch-Classic Ticket through a new cooperation between GaPa Tourismus and Bayerische Zugspitzbahn — all via the guest card that registered visitors already receive. The deal covers three cable railways — the Alpspitzbahn, Hochalmbahn, and Kreuzeckbahn — and kicks in after a minimum stay of three nights. And the timing couldn't be more fitting: this summer also marks 100 years since the Kreuzeckbahn first carried passengers into the mountains above Garmisch-Partenkirchen.
