About the event

Kaltenborn municipality runs this small area in its village of Jammelshofen, on the slopes of the Hohe Acht between 550 and 747 m. Two drag lifts serve an 800 m and a 400 m run, up to 100 m wide, suitable for beginners and more confident skiers alike. Below the former 'Hohe-Acht' mountain hotel, gentle slopes draw families with sledges, and cross-country loops are groomed around the old sports field and in the Lützelacht area. There is no alpine ski rental; cross-country skis can be hired from the SSC Hohe-Acht Nordic school, which also teaches at weekends. Tip: call the snow line (+49 2691 7741) before you leave, then walk up to the Kaiser Wilhelm tower on the summit.
