Munich & Allianz Arena
Clear views of the Bavarian capital and its distinctively shaped football stadium.
Zugspitze
Germany's highest peak is visible in the distance as you cross southern Germany.
Hohe Tauern
The high peaks of central Austria, including Grossglockner on clear days.
Julian Alps
The dramatic, sharp limestone peaks of Triglav National Park in Slovenia.
Ljubljana
The Slovenian capital nestled in its basin just before the final approach to Zagreb.
