The highest mountain in Germany, located on the border between Germany and Austria. The name comes not from the word Zug - train (which is quite tempting due to the train stations :)) but from the word Züge - steep rock gully. A popular and heavily visited peak with several viewpoints on both the German and Austrian sides, where there is also an exhibition of "snow crystals" - flakes, describing the types and formation process, with life-size models. Both countries offer refreshments, public restrooms, and souvenir shops. On the Austrian side, you can see the remnants of an old cable car. On the German side, you can descend/ski to the Schneeferner glacier.
