Family and winter holiday paradise, an insider tip for snow lovers of all ages. Only a few steps away you will find the lifts, cross-country ski tracks, an ice rink, toboggan run and winter hiking paths. No need for a car here. A ski school and guest kindergarten, sports and grocery shops, apres ski bars and restaurants are all nearby and provide everything you need for a perfect winter holiday. The highest located resort in the Tyrolean Zugspitz Arena lays on a sunny plateau with a wonderful view of the mighty Zugspitze, just a few kilometres from the German-Austrian boarder.
SkiWith the "Top Snow Card" lift pass you have access to 10 ski areas with a total of 214 km of piste and 87 lifts, including among others Garmisch-Patenkirchen on the German side of the boarder and Lermoos, Ehrwald and Mittenwald in Austria (see ski region).
Berwang, the highest resort in the Tyrolean Zugspitz Arena offers 36 km of piste and 15 lift systems (incl. magic carpet) due to the interconnection. Here you can leave the little ones to roam without actually loosing them out of your site from the hotel's terrace.
The sunny location on the alpine transition between the Zugspitze and the Lech Valley is breathtaking. The especially popular Sonnalm lift really lives up to its name and offers not only challenging pistes for wide carving swings. Snowboarders and freestylers can experiment in the small fun park at the Thanerllerkar lift.
The valley stations of the Sonnalm lift, the Egghof Sun Jets and the Biliglift offer free Wi-Fi hotspots in order to keep you connected to your friends at home.
Berwang offers more laid-back apres ski. Charmingly situated, rustic lodges and great snack stations in the ski area or the valley invite you in for refreshment. In the resort itself there is a small apres ski mile with a few bars, Night-owls should try "Balu's Musicpub", which attracts many guests with live music during the winter season. In the evenings there are numerous restaurants and inns with local specialities on offer.
Once per week there is also the possibility to go tobogganing in the evenings. The run at Egghof Sun Jet is also illuminated for night skiing. During the day the 2.4 km long toboggan run Lermoos is more attractive.
But these are not the only leisure time options away from the piste: on the Berwang natural ice rink you can practice your pirouettes or duel in curling. On approx. 60 km of winter hiking trails you can explore the close surroundings of Berwang.
Berwang offers cross-country skiers a few excellent tracks that guarantee fun skiing in front of the imposing Zugspitze backdrop.
