Fun on the slopes is the order of the day in both the low mountain ranges and the Alps. The most popular low mountain regions are the Harz Mountains, the Bavarian Forest and the Black Forest - there are smaller ski resorts with easier slopes everywhere, making them the perfect destination for a day trip with the family.

Professional skiers also get their money's worth here - mountains such as the Hohe Arber, the highest mountain in the Bavarian Forest at 1,455 meters, or the 1,493-meter-high Feldberg in the Black Forest pose a real challenge even for experienced skiers.

Many ski resorts in Germany offer world-class standards

If you insist on an alpine feeling, you will of course also find ski resorts in Germany that meet the highest standards. In the Bavarian Alps, the regions around Spitzingsee, Sudelfeld and Brauneck attract the most visitors - the Zugspitze, Germany's highest peak, is also a dream destination for fans of piste sports.

The No. 1 winter sports resort is Garmisch-Partenkirchen: One of the largest ski resorts in Germany is located here. 75 kilometers of slopes, 28 lifts and cable cars that can transport 16,000 people per hour promise unlimited fun in the snow. There are professional runs here that are among the most challenging in the world - such as the legendary Kandahar run, which at almost four kilometers long is one of the longest runs of all World Cup venues. So there are plenty of ski resorts in Germany. Travel agencies and tour operators provide an overview.
