Stunning mountainous European landscapes tend not to be associated with Germany - but these jaw-dropping photographs might help to change that.
They show the country s stunning Bavarian Alps region and its crystal clear lakes, jagged peaks, mesmerising meadows and a fairy-tale castle said to have inspired Disney s Cinderella Castle design.
The amazing images have been snapped by photographer Christine Madeux, an American living in Garmisch-Partenkirchen, south of Munich, with her husband Scott. She says the Bavarian Alps has no shortage of hidden gems to explore .
Christine, who is also full-time wedding photographer, told MailOnline Travel: I think a lot of people imagine visiting Switzerland or France when they picture a trip to the Alps, but Germany is absolutely stunning too.
