Active sports holiday in Germany in both summer and winter in the mountains
We've fallen in love with the mountains
The Bavarian Alps have always fascinated us. For this very reason, the first Explorer Hotel was erected in Oberstdorf in the Allgäu region. The Nebelhorn with its panoramic vista of 400 mountain tops, the ski jumps and the numerous hiking and biking paths offer the perfect infrastructure for enjoying an active summer and winter holiday in the mountains. The next Bavarian Explorer Hotel was built in Nesselwang in the Allgäu Region and was named Explorer Hotel Neuschwanstein after the royal castles located in Schwangau. Due to its ideal location at the Alpspitze mountain, ski-in/ski-out is possible in the wintertime. That means that you put your skis on at the hotel and go directly to the lower station of the Alpspitze railway. We left the Allgäu region and moved in the direction of Berchtesgaden. Another Explorer Hotel was built in Schönau on the Königssee. We find our favourite spot at Germany's deepest lake near Jenner mountain. Apart from the beautiful Königssee, there are also several fixed-rope routes, hiking and biking paths and a wonderful skiing region for the entire family. Did you know that the Watzmann is the world's most beautiful mountain? You'll find it in Berchtesgadener Land, too.
With huge mountains in the south, Germany – as you can see – offers a lot of possibilities for winter and summer activities with your family, friends or your significant other. And if you can't make up your mind, then simply check out all of the Explorer Hotels :-)
