Snow & Ski Guide Germany
Recommended 3 star Ski & Wintersports hotels Germany  Berchtesgaden - Not far from the Austrian cultural centre of Salzburg and relatively easily accessible by motorway, the area lies on the edge of the Berchtesgaden National Park, a region of outstanding natural beauty in summer and winter.The Jenner ski area just outside Schönau is the best known and largest of the small areas in the vicinity of Berchtesgaden and is easily reached by car or ski bus. Hotels Berchtesgaden  Garmisch-Partenkirchen - The organizer of the Ski World Championship 2011 welcomes his guests. Olympic town, winter sports metropolis, hiking paradise, climatic health resort, day trip destination, centre of the Werdenfelser Land, hometown of Richard Strauß, festival venue - Garmisch-Partenkirchen prides itself on its multi-faceted personality.Alpine skiing: At all altitudes up to Zugspitz-Platt including the Kandahar descent, where the World Cup takes place each year. Cross-country skiing on the valley floor and high plateau between Garmisch and Mittenwald. Ice skating and curling indoors and outdoors at the Olympic Ice Stadium. Hotels Garmisch-Partenkirchen  Lenggries - Lenggries is perhaps little known as a ski resort outside Germany, but the local ski club has produced some of the recent stars on the women's World Cup ski-racing circus - Martina Ertl, Hilde Gerg and Annemarie Gerg - and the slopes near the town provide a surprisingly testing and varied playground for the visitor.The Brauneck ski area and the extensive crosscountry ski trails. Hotels Lenggries  Oberammergau - Oberammergau is renowned for its history, the historic Oberammergau Passion Play and its wonderful selection of painted houses.
The attractions are still there in the winter - but they are joined by some spectacular scenery and winter sports activities. For sure, many people love the cross-country skiing trails around the village of Oberammergau - Germany has little better to offer in the winter than the tracks out towards Linderhof Castle with a magical beauty on a clear day with crisp snow and blue skies. But the village also offers a decent amount of skiing for the visitor, even if it is never going to rival the larger resorts to the south. And good skiers on a short stay here may be surprised by the nature of one of the unpisted runs on the Laber mountain behind the town. The principal ski area is on the other side of the main road at the Kolben area and offers a gentle selection of runs for beginners and intermediates. Hotels Oberammergau
