This small town in the Hochsauerland district is particularly well known internationally for the Winterberg ski resort and as the venue for the Bobsleigh and Luge World Cup races. Winter sports enthusiasts and vacationers can look forward to above-average snowfall here, as the location on the Winterberg plateau offers ideal conditions.

In the Hochsauerland region, you can expect not only a great variety of slopes, but also ideal weather conditions for winter sports. Here you can enjoy above-average snowfall. However, if there is a lack of snow, the slopes are covered with artificial snow. This means that fun is guaranteed in the Sauerland ski area in all weather conditions.
The ski resort in Winterberg is a true paradise for winter sports enthusiasts. And there are plenty of reasons to leave our inviting spa area in the hotel from time to time: Hallenberg and Winterberg also offer a wonderful range of winter activities beyond ski boots.
Slopes for every level and every taste
Acht Skigebiete und 81 Abfahrten mit insgesamt rund 56 Pistenkilometern warten im nahen Winterberg darauf, entdeckt zu werden. Naturgegebene Schneesicherheit und leistungsstarke Beschneiungsanlagen sorgen für garantierten Wintersport-Spaß - für Anfänger und Könner.

Das Skiliftkarussell Winterberg mit seinen breiten und überschaubaren Pisten ist ideal, um die ersten Schwünge zu üben. Wer zum ersten Mal auf zwei Brettern steht, lernt mit Hilfe von Zauberteppich, bunten Figuren und Toren in der Remmeswiese oder am Herrloh. Unter professioneller Anleitung werden die Kleinen spielerisch zu den Pistenprofis von morgen. Angehende Freestyler können sich in den zwei Funparks austoben und dort die ersten Tricks üben. Ob waghalsige Sprünge, dynamische Slides oder tollkühne Rotationen - Hier kommt der Freestyle-Spaß nicht zu kurz und bietet Möglichkeiten für atemberaubendste Kunststücke auf Skiern und Snowboard.
A paradise for cross-country skiers in the Winterberg ski resort
Explore the natural beauty of the Winterberg region while cross-country skiing on our 165 km network of trails. Or glide weightlessly over the snow with a snow kite: courses with the appropriate equipment are offered on site. Freshly groomed trails invite you to glide and skate through the unique landscape of the Winterberg and Hallenberg holiday region every day. Excellent signposted circular trails and varied routes ranging from five to twelve kilometers in length offer unique views and relaxation in nature. Beginners can learn about cross-country skiing in special courses and find out everything they need to know to explore the region on the trails. Advanced skiers can hone their technique in intensive training sessions.
Make way for fast-paced toboggan rides
Viele Rodelhänge, einige davon mit Flutlichtanlage, sorgen bei Jung und Alt für große Schneegaudi. Nach oben geht's mit dem Rodellift oder Zauberteppich - runter ins Tal mit Schlitten, Bob, Glider oder Snow Tube. Die Rodelhänge rund um Hallenberg und Winterberg bieten sportlichen Adrenalin-Fans verschiedene Möglichkeiten, sich auszupowern. Schlitten können an vielen Stationen direkt vor Ort gemietet werden. Wenn Sie die Nostalgie packt, sobald Sie einen Holzschlitten sehen, sollten Sie unbedingt unsere Rodelhänge ausprobieren. Noch schneller sind Sie aber mit dem Rennbob-Taxi. Mit sage und schreibe 130 km /h rutschen Sie durch einen Eiskanal - der perfekte Kick für Adrenalin-Junkies.
Bobsleighing has a long tradition in the Winterberg ski resort in the Sauerland region: the first bobsleigh track was built back in 1910. Today, the Veltins-EisArena is one of the fastest and most modern in the world and is the venue for ice-cold races and heated battles for fractions of a second every year.
Wintertime is hiking time
Those who prefer a more tranquil experience will feel at home on our premium winter hiking trails. Here you can hike through romantic snow-covered forests and enjoy the relaxing silence of nature. On numerous hiking trails, guests can enjoy the snow-covered nature in Winterberg's healthy climate, far away from the hustle and bustle. Whether cleared, rolled, or left natural, the winter hiking trails meet all requirements. Cleared trails are ideal for relaxed walks. Those who want to venture further into the untouched winter mountain world can try snowshoeing: deep snow-covered forests can be crossed without any problems with the help of lightweight plastic snowshoes. Trudging through the loose powder snow away from the cleared trails is a unique experience when accompanied by a guide.
As the snowiest place in North Rhine-Westphalia, the ski world around Winterberg and Hallenberg offers ideal conditions for a winter vacation.
Even more reliable snow conditions and an improved rental system
By significantly enlarging the reservoir in Remmeswiese, those responsible for the Winterberg ski lift carousel are optimizing snow reliability in the area. In addition, new, more efficient, and more energy-saving snow guns are replacing the old models in many places. Due to the proximity to residential buildings and hotels, the operators at Herrloh invested in particularly quiet snow cannons. Snow reliability is also being improved in the Altastenberg ski area with the purchase of new equipment. Further improvements to the ski/snowboard rental system ensure carefree fun on the slopes: to enable ski enthusiasts to select the equipment they need before they arrive, rental companies in Neuastenberg, among others, have been using time-saving online reservation systems since this winter.
Optimal conditions in the cross-country skiing and tobogganing paradise
Unforgettable cross-country skiing experiences on perfectly groomed trails: to ensure this, volunteers renovated the entire trail network last summer. A new storage building for snow groomers and other equipment was built at the Bremberg parking lot in the Winterberg cross-country skiing area. Nordic winter sports enthusiasts can also look forward to a new addition at the Pastorenwiese cross-country skiing center: the cross-country skiing club has invested in new equipment that allows the trails to be groomed even when there is little snow, offering unlimited cross-country skiing fun.
Away from the cross-country trails and slopes, tobogganing and sledding are becoming increasingly popular with guests of all ages. To ensure perfect tobogganing fun, the ski resorts in Winterberg have expanded their offerings in recent years. To make winter sledding even safer, the start and finish areas of the natural toboggan run in Neuastenberg will be widened this coming winter.
For the daring: the new year-round Astenkick mega zip line
Seit August 2018 erwartet die Besucher der Ferienwelt Winterberg ein neuer Kick am Kahlen Asten. Mit der Megazipline ASTENKICK rauschen die Gäste mit über 70 km/h liegend oder sitzend über 1.000 Meter Länge ins Tal. Der ASTENKICK ist damit die zweitlängste Megazipline Europas. Geöffnet ist der Actionspaß von Dienstag bis Sonntag von 10 bis 18 Uhr und läuft im Ganzjahresbetrieb - lediglich bei Sturm, Gewitter oder Starkregen wird aus Sicherheitsgründen eine Flugpause eingelegt. Tickets gibt es ab rund 30 Euro.
Für welche Winteraktivität Sie sich auch entscheiden werden - wir sind uns sicher, dass Sie anschließend mit roten Wangen und einem strahlenden Lachen in unser Hotel Diedrich zurückkehren werden.
