1. Ski Garmisch-Partenkirchen

Alpine skiing with a German flavor is the powerful mystique that draws skiers from all parts of the world to the mountains of Germany. You'll sense the magic in the long Alpine ski runs that translate into more skiing and less time on the lift line for you. Steep slopes and great glacial bowls offer new thrills for even the most experienced skier. Plus, the gentler slopes provide a spectacular experience for the less expert skiers.

Germany offers unique lift networks that let you ski from mountain to mountain, village to village. Its unequalled variety of ski areas offers you every choice imaginable – from modern hotels and prime resorts to fairytale castles and warm cozy chalets, each with gracious ambience and breathtaking scenery. In addition to superb skiing, many of the fluffy white slopes offer the skier a change of pace, with skating, tobogganing, sleigh riding, indoor swimming and tennis. Après-ski action in the German Alps is also part of the magic. Whether you choose a beer pub, a wine tavern, a high-decibel disco, a sophisticated nightclub or a bustling casino, the German Alps offer a multitude of urban delights. In winter, the cities are vibrantly alive, and the art galleries, museums, opera houses and concert halls are filled with activity. And if you are in Germany as Christmas draws near, be sure to visit one of the traditional Christmas markets that give a marvelous lift to the Christmas spirit in many German towns.
