The hike up here is long, steep and worth every step because you will be rewarded with a beautiful view and a glass of delicious beer. Seriously, this is magical.

The sausages, beer and other traditional fare are very tasty (the spinach dumplings especially so), and the outdoor seating had an incredible view of the alps and the valley below. The hike isn't particularly strenuous (and it's mostly shaded by surrounding trees), but those visiting the area from sea level might feel the altitude - you're hiking from 2000 ft at the base to 3000 ft at the top. It's an unpaved path, and though you could walk it in sneakers, light hiking shoes will make your ascent and descent more comfortable. A wonderful place to take a leisurely walk, eat some tasty Bavarian food and enjoy a wondrous view.

Private bathroom was a big plus which we take it for granted in US. I'd rather pay a little extra for a room to have a private bathroom for our comfort. There was a balcony with seating for two with a view of mountains. We could hear folks having a good time from the nearby biergarten/restaurant, but it all died down around 22:00. For some reason, it was rather quiet on Saturday and Sunday nights. The church (St. Peter und Paul two blocks away) bell rang throughout the night, but it was more soothing than nuisance for me. Breakfast was excellent in typical Bavarian fashion like freshly baked rolls, meat and cheese plate (photo). You can help yourself to müsli, fresh fruit cups, yogurt, muffins (sweet) besides that. Breakfast lady asks you and will make you eggs and bacon if you want (photo). Staff were very pleasant, courteous and accommodating. I believe it was a family-owned and operated pension--very nice folks. There was a three-generation family photo from 2010 Passion Play. I understood they will participate again in 2022. The only thing lacking at this hotel was a restaurant, so we went into town for meals beyond breakfast. No problem. Because of its central location in Oberammergau, you can walk to most of the attractions/restaurants/shops in town. It's very convenient. Limited free parking is available which makes it very convenient.

We weren't quite sure what the 'pig knuckle' might be so we ordered it. We are glad we did. It was a perfectly roasted and then fried pork piece on the bone. All the meat fell from the bones and was just so tender and juicy. The fried exterior was so crispy. Yum! It came with a bread dumpling which wasn't that great...a bit dense and seemed not entirely re-heated. But we also feasted on excellent liver dumpling soup and a huge gorgeous salad. So great!!

Hotel was also cute. arrived at our hotel in the evening and rain. but later saw how cute the tiny town and boutique hotel were. As is the case with many hotels in Europe we had 2 twin bed pushed together and they were very firm. No sheet but we did take the inside of our comforter out .. to serve as a sheet. Why no sheets in Europe??? the towels were smallish and coarse but every room had a lovely basket containing bigger towels and couple robes. these are really for the pool and spa but fine to use. prefer using spa towels vs room towels. Cute area to sit outside with swing and area to relax. No AC!!! So dont go in in summer ..we were there in spring and opened a window to cool off the room .. no screen so risk bugs but only way to cool off. the room entrance and bathroom entrance both had just a one inch step... just enough to stumble or break a toe. Ken had the idea of using a rolled up spa towel to cover the step thus protecting our feet. the hotel is right across the street from a Benedictine abbey. you can buy tickets to enter abbey. The town is very close to one of King Ludwigs castles or palace. we only stayed one night as apart of our tour .. and there were 44 of us.
