What does a ski holiday at Gut Steinbach offer?
Reit im Winkl is what skiers call a “snow hole”. Its location in a high valley at 695 metres means that, on average, more snow falls here than almost anywhere else in Germany. Gut Steinbach is ten minutes from the Seegatterl valley station for the Winklmoosalm. From here, a gondola also takes you to the Tiroler Steinplatte, another beautiful family ski area. Hit the slopes in the morning, enjoy Kaiserschmarrn on the mountain at lunchtime, unwind in the panoramic sauna before dinner, and round off the day with a menu at the HEIMAT restaurant. That is what a ski holiday in Bavaria looks like.
Ski holiday in Bavaria: Winklmoosalm
Winklmoosalm
Our home ski area. Free shuttle bus from Reit im Winkl to the Seegatterl valley station. From the Winklmoosalm you can reach the summit of the Steinplatte in Tyrol at 1,869 metres. The Winklmoosalm is the gentle side: wide blue runs, ideal for families and beginners. The Steinplatte adds even more variety: red and black runs, a snow park, and panoramas stretching as far as the Central Alps.
