Oberammergau
The Shirley Temple of Bavarian villages, and exploited to the hilt by the tourist trade, Oberammergau wears too much makeup. During its famous Passion Play (every 10 years, next in 2020), the crush is unbearableâand the prices at the hotels and restaurants can be as well. The village has about 1,200 beds for the 5,000 playgoers coming daily. But the rest of the time, Oberammergauâwhile hardly âundiscoveredââis a pleasant, and at times even sleepy, Bavarian village. If youâre passing through, Oberammergau is a â² sightâworth a wander among the half-timbered Lüftlmalerei houses frescoed with biblical scenes and famous fairy-tale characters. Itâs also a relatively convenient home base for visiting Linderhof Castle, Ettal Monastery, and the Zugspitze (via Garmisch). A smaller (and less conveniently located) alternative to Füssen and Reutte, itâs worth considering for drivers who want to linger in the area. A day trip to Neuschwanstein from Oberammergau is manageable if you have a car, but train travelers do better to stay in Füssen.
