    Ski holidays with children

    Tips for a skiing holiday in Germany

    A skiing holiday with children in Germany is ideal for families – thanks in part to short travel times and family-friendly ski resorts. In regions such as the Ore Mountains, the Harz Mountains and the Thuringian Forest, you can expect gentle slopes, short walks to the slopes and a wide range of winter activities for young and old alike.

    In the Ore Mountains, the Fichtelberg in Oberwiesenthal, the largest ski resort in eastern Germany, offers perfect conditions for families. The AHORN Hotel Am Fichtelberg is situated right next to the slopes and offers ski hire as well as an on-site children’s ski school. Families will also find ideal conditions for relaxed winter sports and cross-country skiing in the Eastern Ore Mountains around Altenberg.

    In the Thuringian Forest, Oberhof and Friedrichroda offer a wide range of opportunities for cross-country skiing, tobogganing and winter hiking. In the Harz Mountains, the Wurmberg near Braunlage, northern Germany’s largest ski resort, delights visitors with varied slopes and magnificent winter landscapes – perfect for active winter days with the whole family.

    A skiing holiday with the family

    For a successful skiing holiday with children in Germany, a family-friendly hotel is particularly important. At Ahorn Hotels & Resorts, family holidays take centre stage – with comfortable rooms, child-friendly meals and a varied leisure programme suitable for all weathers.

    The hotels in popular winter regions such as the Ore Mountains, the Harz Mountains and the Thuringian Forest are often located close to the slopes and also offer plenty of indoor activities for families. This means that parents and children can relax and enjoy their winter holiday – whether on the slopes or at the hotel.

    Tips for a family skiing holiday

    • Family-friendly hotel: family rooms, play areas and child-friendly meals ensure a relaxing stay.

    • On-site ski school: Ideal for children and beginners – whilst parents can enjoy the slopes themselves.

    • Short distances to the slopes: Hotels near the slopes save time and make your day’s skiing stress-free.

    • Bad-weather activities: A swimming pool or indoor play areas keep boredom at bay.

    • Staying safe: Helmets, proper ski boots and protective gear are particularly important for children.

    • Variety in winter: Sledging, ice skating or winter walks perfectly complement a skiing holiday.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Ski holidays in Germany

    • The best time to go on a skiing holiday in Germany is between December and March, with January and February offering the best snow conditions. Ski resorts such as Fichtelberg and Wurmberg enjoy consistent snow cover during these months, aided by artificial snowmaking. Those looking to avoid the crowds can travel during the quieter months of December and March. Families often prefer the peak season, as special offers for children are available during the holidays. It is advisable to book your skiing holiday well in advance, as hotels get fully booked quickly.

    • For a ski holiday in Germany with guaranteed snow, higher-altitude regions with modern snow-making facilities are ideal, such as the Ore Mountains, the Harz Mountains and the Thuringian Forest. The Fichtelberg in the Ore Mountains (1,215 m) often offers good snow conditions well into March, aided by snow cannons. The Wurmberg ski resort in the Harz Mountains is also guaranteed to have snow thanks to its altitude and cold climate, with well-maintained cross-country trails and winter hiking paths. In the Thuringian Forest, particularly around Oberhof, artificial snow ensures stable conditions right into March.

    • Beginners benefit from smaller ski resorts with gentle slopes and professional ski schools, as manageable piste lengths and well-groomed slopes provide the ideal setting for getting started. At Fichtelberg in the Ore Mountains, beginners will find wide, gentle slopes and ski lessons for adults and children, perfect for taking their first steps in skiing. Braunlage in the Harz Mountains also offers easy slopes designed specifically for beginners and families, alongside courses for all age groups. In Oberhof in the Thuringian Forest, well-groomed slopes and ski schools ensure that newcomers can learn to ski or snowboard safely and at their own pace. Large ski resorts are not yet necessary here to achieve initial success.

    • Germany is a paradise for cross-country skiers, particularly in the Thuringian Forest, the Harz Mountains and the Ore Mountains. The Rennsteig in the Thuringian Forest offers hundreds of kilometres of trails for long ski tours. In the Harz Mountains, around the Wurmberg, there are varied trails through snow-covered forests, ideal for both recreational skiers and ambitious runners. The Ore Mountains also impress with an extensive network of trails and well-groomed routes that lead through idyllic winter landscapes.
