Ski area Oberfrauenwald

Oberfrauenwald ski area (nearby Waldkirchen) with its about 1.4 km of piste is the perfect playground for families, children and beginners. The main piste is 1.4 km long, nicely broad and lined with conifers. The tow lift's valley station is on an altitude of 650 m, the mountain station on 948 m, so that the blue piste passes a difference in altitude of 300 m. Near the mountain station is a 27 m high observation tower which offers a great panoramic view of the snowy forests. A baby lift is available for the youngest skiers, a practise lift for older children. In the upper, a little steeper part of the piste you can find a funpark. The natural park invites snowboarders and more and more skiers to indulge in their hobby on two lines. Even tobogganing does not come off badly in Oberfrauenwald - a toboggan hire on site is also available. Adults and children alike enjoy the 300 m toboggan run at Dickenbüchl lift.

Après ski Waldkirchen

Après ski in Waldkirchen is focused on the experience of sports and nature. For example, the Karoli ice hall (60 x 30 m) and Erlauzwiesel storage reservoir offer the opportunity to go ice skating or curling. Furthermore, several quite extensive hiking paths lead through the forests and hills surrounding the resort. For toboggan fun you can best go to Dickenbüchl lift in Oberfrauenwald right after skiing. For bad weather and all water lovers, the public pool and spa "Karoli Badepark" is a welcome change for winter sports; here you can relax in the sauna or during a massage. A tennis- and squash hall, horse-drawn carriage rides or sociable evenings on the skittles alley are also on offer in Waldkirchen. The possibilities really are diverse.

If you prefer visiting the town after skiing, you will not only find a beautiful, historic centre, but also nice cafés for an afternoon break, as well as an extraordinary shopping experience in the fashion house Garhammer. Those interested in cultural aspects should enhance their stroll through the city by visiting the "Goldener Steig" museum.

In the evening you can let yourself be spoiled in the good and quaint restaurants. Typical of the regional cuisine in the tri-state-area is the mix of Bavarian, Austrian and Bohemian cuisine. A last drink in one of the cosy pubs and a stroll through the historic streets round off the evening in Waldkirchen.
