"One of the advantages of living in Europe is having access to a great transcontinental train network. In the winter months you don't need a car to get from Germany to these stunning winter sport destinations in the Alps. The start of this year has proven to be a cold one in Germany, and a series of winter storms have blanketed large parts of the country in snow multiple times over in recent weeks."
"But sometimes one man's bad weather is another man's bliss, and for skiers and snowboarders in Germany the exceptionally cold winter we're having is a gift. Consider this your sign to take a break from the daily grind, and go get some runs in while the powder is still fresh. Need further inspiration? Here's a few car-free ski destinations that you can take a train to from Germany, because nothing beats a car-free vacation for shaking off the daily routine."
Europe's transcontinental train network enables car-free travel from Germany to Alpine winter sport destinations. Recent cold and storms have blanketed large parts of Germany in snow, creating hazardous conditions for drivers and pedestrians but excellent powder for skiers and snowboarders. Train travel makes day trips or weekend getaways feasible without a car. Austria offers many ski towns within a few hours of Munich, slopes above 2,000 metres, and nearby cities like Salzburg and Innsbruck with shuttle or local transport links. Some resorts provide accommodation at gondola bases. Gastein Valley combines villages, ski areas, and thermal baths such as Alpentherme Spa.
