Introduction to The Bavarian AlpsThe huge province of Bavaria includes not only the Alps but also Franconia, Lake Constance, and the capital city of Munich. This chapter explores the mountainous region along the Austrian border, a world unto itself. The hospitality of this area is famous, and many travelers think of the Alps as a winter vacationland, but you'll find that nearly all the Bavarian resorts and villages boast year-round attractions. Munich is the major driving gateway, with autobahns leading directly to the Bavarian Alps. If you're beginning your tour in Garmisch-Partenkirchen in the west, you should fly into Munich. However, if your destination is Berchtesgaden in the eastern Alps, the nearest airport is Salzburg, Austria.
