Directions
You start in the inner courtyard of Ettal Abbey and, after passing through the west gate, turn immediately left and cross the road. A narrow path leads you across a meadow towards the forest. There, turn right along the edge of the forest above the Ettal Mill into the so-called Dickenwald (Thick Forest). A wide forest road leads you to Dickelschwaig. After the bridge, keep left. After a short loop, you'll pass the Schattenwald (Shadow Forest) parking area. Cross the state road (ST 2060) and after about 200 meters, turn left onto the Sonnenweg (Sun Path) back towards Ettal. Passing the Rahmbauern farms, keep left and continue past the Schützenhaus (shooting range) onto the Grottenweg (Grotto Path). You'll pass the Crucifixion Group. The path now descends in switchbacks until you reach a paved road. After about 50 meters, turn left. At the bottom, you'll reach the Ammer River. Turn right, then cross the Ammer bridge and turn right again towards the Oberammergau sports field. Continue along the Ammer river until you see a tunnel on your left. Turn into the tunnel. Passing the Oberammergau festival grounds, turn left again towards the stadium and the finish line. Half marathon complete.
