In reply to bigrob:
Hi Rob - I had a two week holiday based purely around Garmisch (Valley base for the Zugspitze) a few years ago and loved it. Plenty to do there, but not favoured by us Brits for some reason. All these suggestions are Straight Outta Garmisch (as it were).
Once you've summited the Zugspitze (I'd recommend the Hollental ferrata), you can stay overnight in the hut on the summit, and possibly do the Jubilaumsgrat the next day. We didn't do it, but by all accounts it's one of the best in the Limestone alps and its mix of Ferrata and scrambling should be no match for you Cuillin in a day types
For a great few days in a remote part of the range doing brilliant but somehow chilled multipitch mountain routes have a look at the Oberreintal Hut. It's a proper climbers hut where you bring in your food and the guardian fashions something out of the available ingredients for everyone. Classic routes here are Militarkante (S), Radlkante (VS?), and another Severeish thing I can't recall the name of (as well as thousands of harder offerings). Lovely hut and stupendous dolomite style walls all around. I still keep the hut receipt in my wallet as a reminder of the time we spent there.
The Alpspitze has easily accessed VF's on it if you're looking for a warm up. Also the Bernadeinkopf close by has a shortish sharpish VF for when you have plenty of bicep, but only a half day.
We stayed in a house, but I seem to recall there's car park just off the road to Grainau by the Loisach river that people park vans in. There's also a monster carpark just by the old winter olympic stadium, but that wouldn't be so nice.
We got the Panico Wetterstein guidebook for the climbing (it also has the Jubilaumsgrat in it) and it's excellent.
The beer is good too!
Enjoy
Tom
