Cross-country skiing Berchtesgaden
On the way on fantastic cross-country ski trails in the Berchtesgadener Land
During your winter holiday at the Explorer Hotel Berchtesgaden, over 100 kilometers of cross-country ski trails await you. You can enjoy your laps in freestyle or classic technique against the impressive backdrop of the Berchtesgaden Alps.
Cross-country skiing paradise
Whether you're ambitious or simply looking for a more leisurely approach, gliding through the cross-country ski trails is even more fun when the surroundings are as magnificent as they are here in Berchtesgadener Land. The more than 100 kilometers of perfectly groomed trails stretch across expansive meadows, snow-sure plateaus, and alpine pastures.
This means you'll find a wide and varied network of trails during your winter vacation at Königssee. It doesn't matter whether you're skating or classic; in most cases, both are possible side by side.
Schönau am Königssee offers approximately 18 kilometers of perfectly groomed cross-country ski trails. These are divided into the Königssee and Schönau cross-country ski trails.
