Mittenwald is a place out of dreams. At every bend in the road, you can see the Karwendel Mountains staring down at you, and I kept having this feeling of déjà vu, like I had seen this place somewhere before. Maybe it was in some childhood calendar or an old photograph where I was first mesmerized by the Alps. It felt like I was stepping into a memory I had carried for years without even realizing it. It was a very emotional trip. I ended up climbing Hoher Kranzberg, and as someone who isn’t...
Posted: May 1, 2026I consider Mittenwald as really safe. The only season thats a little bit spooky is the „Gunglzeit“ (between 6.1 - Unsinniger Donnerstag). Its not that it is unsafe in this time, but the tradition is, that men wear beautiful masks out of wood and walk trough the streets, sing traditional songs and dance. They do nothing harmful, but I consider this time as spooky especially if you dont know about the tradition and walk around alone
