Ten reviews and a 4.9 average, and none of them left a line I can usefully quote. That is common on short hands-on activities: people rate them and get on with the day. I am not going to build a paragraph out of nothing, so here is the honest summary — ten people did it, they all thought it was worth it, and no one has complained in public.
Why it is on a gorge website
Because of the timing. The gorge is 2.2 km on foot from the ski stadium, the walk through it is short, and unless you are climbing on up the valley you will be back in town by early afternoon with the whole day still in front of you. Two hours indoors with your hands in dough is a reasonable answer to that, and so is the weather: this valley rains, and the alternatives are mostly outdoors. The rest of the options are here, and whether the gorge alone justifies the trip is answered separately.
What works
- The lowest price in the catalogue
- Two hours, so it fits around a morning at the gorge
- Indoors, which matters in this valley
- Ten reviews and no complaints yet
Worth knowing
- Ten reviews is very little to go on
- Nothing to do with the Partnachklamm
- In town, so you need to be in Garmisch-Partenkirchen already
- Not a substitute for a day out if the weather is good
Book it for the afternoon and do the gorge first. The morning light in the gorge is better and the path is quieter before the coaches reach the ski stadium. The operator warns that short-notice closures for safety are sometimes unavoidable, so check partnachklamm.de on the morning you travel.

Frequently asked questions
Does this have anything to do with the Partnach Gorge?
Nothing at all. It is a two-hour class in Garmisch-Partenkirchen town and it works as an afternoon after a morning in the gorge. Other things to do nearby are here.
Is it good value?
At about a hundred and twenty euros it is the cheapest activity in this catalogue, and two hours is a real two hours rather than a coach day with an hour of content. Ten reviewers rated it 4.9.
Can I do the gorge and this on the same day?
Comfortably. The gorge is a morning if you start early: bus 1 or 2 to Skistadion, 2.2 km on foot, then back. The timings are here.
