Walking Around Oberammergau

I've been unable to find a suggested walking/strolling route around Oberammergau that includes the major Lüftlmalerei houses and a brief description of each...something more detailed than "cute", "colorful", etc.

I've never looked for a formal walking route around Oberammergau. I thought it was quite a small town and easy (and relatively quick) to get around on foot. I went particularly slowly because of looking at all the wood carvings (I enjoy wood carvings) in so many of the windows.

Check with the tourist office to see if they have a map

For the tourist office's map, go to this webpage and click on "Ortsplan". It takes a few seconds to load the PDF map.

Before I went to Oberammergau in 2007, I downloaded a map from the town website. It seems it was better than the one on the website today. I think now I would just use the one on Google Maps.

Lee! Thank you so much for your very helpful suggestion! Although the descriptions of each house are rather brief, at least I can connect the house locations and create my own walking tour for our grandchildren! I’m very grateful for your reply!
