Germany is home to nearly 700 ski resorts, ranging from lively destinations like Garmisch-Partenkirchen to quiet, picturesque villages tucked away in the mountains. One of the biggest advantages of skiing in Germany is how easy it is to access; many resorts are located just a short drive from major international airports like Munich, Innsbruck, or Zurich. That means less time travelling and more time on the slopes. A highlight for many visitors is Zugspitze, Germany’s highest mountain at 2,962 metres. It offers not only stunning views but also a mix of downhill runs and snowboarding options in a truly alpine setting.
