Gletschergarten Vacation Rental

Welcome to the Gletschergarten—your stylish retreat in Oberaudorf. Our lovingly and tastefully renovated vacation apartment is located in a charming 1960s house that has been modernized with great attention to detail. The result is a cozy apartment for two people (plus a toddler) that combines modern living with the house’s unique charm. Spanning approximately 25 m², the apartment offers everything you need for a relaxing stay: a fully equipped kitchen, a cozy living and sleeping area, and a separate bathroom. The apartment also features a spacious outdoor seating area with a view of the surrounding greenery. Here, you can enjoy breakfast in the morning sun, relaxing afternoons, or balmy summer evenings in a peaceful atmosphere—surrounded by nature and with the mountains of the Inn Valley right before your eyes. The name “Gletschergarten” pays homage to the history of this region. During the last ice ages, the mighty Inn Glacier forced its way between the Wildbarren and Kranzhorn, shaping the Inn Valley in the process. Today, you can enjoy the view of this impressive Alpine gateway—the former Inn Valley Glacier—right from the outdoor seating area; it is precisely this unique natural history that inspired the name of our vacation rental, “Gletschergarten.” Vacation in Oberaudorf Nestled between the Kaiser Mountains, the Wendelstein, and the Inn Valley, Oberaudorf is one of the most beautiful vacation destinations in the Bavarian Alpine foothills. Numerous hiking and biking trails begin right at your doorstep, and in winter, ski slopes, cross-country trails, and winter hiking trails await you. On warm summer days, Lake Luegstein, Lake Sillei, Lake Hechtsee, and many others invite you to take a refreshing dip. Whether you’re swimming, stand-up paddling, wakeboarding, or simply soaking up the sun—each lake has its own charm. Oberaudorf also has a lot to offer in terms of cuisine. Numerous restaurants, cafés, and traditional Bavarian taverns are within easy walking distance of the vacation rental and will treat you to regional specialties as well as international cuisine. Oberaudorf also delights culturally with a varied program of events. Bavarian music evenings, spa concerts, village festivals, folk evenings, and traditional events ensure authentic vacation moments and let you experience Bavarian hospitality up close.

We are Nadine and Daniel—a young family with two children—and we look forward to welcoming you here. With a lot of love, time, and our own hard work, we’ve completely renovated our 1960s house and transformed the Gletschergarten into a place where you’ll feel right at home from the very first moment. We live in Oberaudorf ourselves and love sharing our enthusiasm for the region with our guests. Whether it’s hikes, swimming lakes, restaurants, or special places to visit—we’ll share our personal favorite spots and insider tips with you. Sports, nature, and Bavarian culture shape our lives: Nadine was a competitive wakeboarder for many years and has even helped a guest or two get on the board herself. Daniel is an avid climber and knows the most beautiful climbing areas in the region. As a private pilot, he’s happy to take guests on a unique and breathtaking scenic flight over the Alps for a small fee. With a little luck, the scent of fresh pizza from our own wood-fired oven will waft through the air during your stay—and we’d love to invite you to enjoy a slice. And: We love village festivals!
