Glamping at the Zugspitze

Outdoor deluxe & more
Our modern treehouse in the 5-star Camping Resort Zugspitze offers a direct view of the Zugspitze and surrounding mountain landscape.

You want to get away. Really away. Into the mountains, into nature, into the fresh air. But please, without a sleeping mat, without freezing, and without deprivation. This is exactly where your glamping holiday at the Zugspitze begins.

You wake up, open the door of your treehouse, and there before you is the Zugspitze. 2.962 meters. Germany's highest peak. Not somewhere on the horizon, but directly opposite. Below, the Loisach River rushes by, fresh and clear. The air is crisp, the tranquility palpable. No traffic, no stress – just nature. And the best part: your bed was comfortable, your coffee hot, and your bathroom just a few steps away.

Welcome to glamping at Camping Resort Zugspitze – one of the most beautiful glamping destinations in Bavaria.

What is glamping? – Camping with comfort explained

Glamping , short for "glamorous camping," combines the best of both worlds: the freedom of camping and the comfort of high-quality accommodation. You're surrounded by nature – and yet you can still enjoy it in a relaxed way.

What does that mean in concrete terms? Spacious, comfortably equipped pitches. A sauna and wellness area where you can truly unwind after a long day of hiking. A gym if you want to stay active even on holiday. And for those who prefer extra privacy: a private, heated bathroom, just for you.

At the glamping resort Camping Resort Zugspitze, you decide how close you want to be to nature – and how much comfort you want to enjoy.
