Riessersee, approx. 30min
The Rießersee is located south of Garmisch in the Wetterstein Mountains. It was artificially created in a forest clearing in the Middle Ages.
It can be reached on foot from Garmisch in about 30 minutes. The circumnavigation of the small, beautifully situated and crystal clear body of water also takes 30 minutes. So all in all a very nice and manageably long walk with panoramic views of Alpspitz, Jubiläumsgrat and Zugspitze.

At the summit, the view to the south is also free., there impresses especially the Alpspitze.

The Schachenhaus is located at 1,867 meters above sea level directly below the Königshaus am Schachen, which is also known as the Schachenschloss.
