Ski holidays Berchtesgaden - one of Germany's loveliest regions!

Berchtesgaden

Berchtesgaden is located at 573 m above sea level in the south-easternmost part of Upper Bavaria and borders directly on neighbouring Austria. The town offers everything you need for a successful (winter) holiday: a romantic village setting with two striking church towers, a wide range of sports and leisure activities and the Watzmann thermal spa with its own healing cave for relaxation after an eventful day. In addition, there is the typical Bavarian cuisine with its specialities such as roast pork and knuckle of pork. The royal castle with its own castle museum, which surrounds the market square, is also a real eye-catcher.

Berchtesgadener Land

The romantic Berchtesgadener Land region lies before the impressive panorama of the 2,713-metre-high Watzmann massif in Berchtesgaden National Park. Surrounded by a mountain range ranging from 2,000 to 2,700 metres in height, this Upper Bavarian region offers peace and tranquillity. The Berchtesgadener Land has five separate ski areas, which are combined in the lift pass of the same name. With around 40 kilometres of slopes between 795 and 1,554 metres above sea level and 22 lifts, the best skiing fun is guaranteed. The Berchtesgadener Land is internationally renowned for its World Cup-standard downhill runs and as a venue for world championships in luge, bobsleigh and snowboarding.

From the 24/25 season onwards, however, there will no longer be any groomed slopes available on the Jenner. Nevertheless, the ride on the modernised Jennerbahn cable car is still included in the lift pass. In addition, you can use the new, approx. 1.4-kilometre-long toboggan run from the mountain station, explore the surrounding area on the snowshoe trail to the "Vorderen Pfaffenkegel" or try out the groomed winter hiking trail around the Speicherweiher pond.
