After breakfast, check out of your hotel in the Innsbruck region and begin your transfer to Oberammergau. Also known as “Upper Ammer Vale,” Oberammergau enjoys a stunning setting in a scenic alpine valley in southern Bavaria. The quaint village is best known for its production of The Passion Play, which depicts the trial, suffering and death of Christ. Its once-per-decade staging fulfills a promise that citizens made to God in 1633 after, according to legend, He answered their prayers and spared them from the plague. The tradition continues today and it is a great honor for Oberammergau’s residents to be a part of this powerful, dramatic performance.
