1/15 Ski slopes Zugspitze
Easy and intermediate slopes are available in the Zugspitze ski resort. They are the highest ski runs in Germany. Only intermediate runs lead down to the Brunntal valley. At the Schneefernerkopf tow lift, there are only easy slopes. All other areas offer a choice. There are no difficult runs, but there are lots of unsecured powder slopes. The panoramic views are amazing.

The Zugspitze is not linked directly to the Garmisch-Classic ski resort. You need to take the cog railway and the journey is around one hour.
Worth knowing
- No artificial snow-making
- Valley run not available
There is no valley run from the Zugspitzplatt plateau. From around halfway down, from the Riffelriß cog railway station, a run leads down to the Eibsee lake, the base station of the Zugspitze cable car and Eibsee train station.
