Best Ski Resorts in Germany 🚠⛷️🏂 Travel Information List 🇩🇪
The best ski resorts in Germany remain traditional and haven’t been over-commercialized. Most resorts are within easy reach of international airports in major cities (Munich, Salzburg, Innsbruck, Basel and Zurich) – which makes it easy to combine a ski holiday with a city break. Although Germany hasn’t been a popular European ski destination it offers great value for money. You have a choice between large ski resorts like Garmisch-Partenkirchen and Oberstdorf or the rural charm of smaller ski villages including Pfronten or Mittenwald, close to the Austrian border which offers great value for money skiing in the Alps.
