This Destination Was Just Named Europe's Most Overlooked Ski Getaway—and It Has 600+ Ski Resorts and Almost No Crowds

"Germany’s tallest mountain delivers reliable snow conditions, and its high elevation means longer ski seasons, with trails usually open into April. It’s a particularly great spot for beginner and intermediate skiers, with mellow trails and panoramic views of Austria, Italy, and Switzerland. The mountain rises from both Austria and Germany and is home to one of the country’s few remaining glaciers, although you cannot ski between the two countries from the slopes. More challenging terrain is just a cogwheel train or cable car ride away in the Garmisch-Classic ski area, and both are accessible from Garmisch-Partenkirchen." - Lydia Price Lydia Price Lydia Price is a senior engagement editor at Travel + Leisure, where she hosts short-form videos and leads content engagement initiatives.
