Winter sports in the Sauerland
White Worlds
Right on the doorstep of the Schmallenberger Sauerland, you can enjoy the greatest skiing pleasure north of the Alps. The Wintersport-Arena Sauerland has been developed into a reliable ski region from December to March in the last few years. Discover white worlds, only one to three hours by car from the conurbations of Germany.
Skiing & Snowboarding
in the Winter Sports Arena Sauerland
Meanwhile, the alpine offer is unparalleled in the Sauerland. Especially in the "ski strongholds" of Winterberg and Willingen, there has been a lot of investment in infrastructure and snow-making in recent years. Right on our doorstep you will find, for example, the Winterberg ski lift carousel with a total of 26 lifts and 34 runs, most of which are covered in snow. Smaller ski resorts have also upgraded and market their offer jointly under the roof of the Winter Sports Arena
Ski lifts & toboggan lifts in the Schmallenberger Sauerland
Somewhat quieter and less crowded at weekends, the range of downhill ski runs for alpine skiing in the Schmallenberger Sauerland offers perfectly snow-covered slopes on about 90 days a year. The slopes are up to 1,400 m long, extra wide and easy to moderately difficult. They are perfect for family skiing days, extensive carving and boarding or for beginners and re-starters.

Cross-country skiing
Brings movement into life
You are attracted to the cross-country ski run? Then your destination is Schmallenberger Sauerland. If there is enough natural snow, you can glide through up to 200 km of prepared cross-country trails along the mountain ridges of the Rothaargebirge and Hunau with their spectacular views. Thanks to a comprehensive network, the trails can be combined very well at altitudes between 650 and 841 metres above sea level. They are also easy to reach by (winter-tired) car and are uniformly signposted according to DSV (German Ski Federation) guidelines. Signs on downhill runs point out possible dangers, in circular tracks the kilometres still to be covered are indicated and the right direction is clearly marked at crossroads.

Westfeld-Ohlenbach
It is THE destination for cross-country skiing fans: The cross-country skiing centre Westfeld/Ohlenbach with a unique offer of up to 80 km of machine-tracked, partly snow-covered trails. Guided tours, a ski rental and floodlit cross-country skiing make the winter fun perfect.
Winter hiking
You are always and at any time of the year outdoors? And preferably on foot? Then you can look forward to cleared winter hiking trails in a sunny location. The Sauerland landscape dresses itself up completely new in winter and presents itself in a unique way. Discover the winter wonderland on foot, ideally warmly wrapped and with non-slip shoes.
