You leave Munich before the traffic thickens, the city shrinking behind a panoramic glass roof as leather seats hum under you. The van climbs south, the plain turning into rolling green and then into steep, craggy folds of the Northern Alps. The first real sight that holds the group silent is Eibsee: a blue so clear it seems to push back at the sky. Later, the Zugspitze looms—nearly 3,000 meters of rock and ice daring you to take the cable car for a 360-degree alpine panorama.
