Oberbärenburg Overview

Oberbärenburg Ski Resort, nestled in the heart of nature, offers a unique blend of exhilarating winter sports and tranquil hiking opportunities.

Visitors to the resort often find themselves enchanted by the opportunities for sledding, turning the absence of uphill transport into a fun-filled adventure. The thrill of racing down the snow-covered hills has proven to be a delightful experience for adventure-seekers and families alike.

While the resort acknowledges the impact of climate change on the reliability of snow, it has adapted to these changes by offering an array of activities beyond winter sports. The resort has become a preferred destination for hikers, who enjoy the tranquillity of the scenic trails that wind through the picturesque landscape.

Adding to the charm of Oberbärenburg is Haus Kobär, a popular dining spot known for its delicious cuisine. After an active day of sledding or hiking, visitors find the warm, hearty meals at Haus Kobär to be the perfect end to an eventful day, enhancing the overall experience at the resort.

Despite the challenges, including the temporary closures due to the global pandemic, Oberbärenburg Ski Resort continues to offer a memorable experience to its visitors. Its adaptability and commitment to providing enjoyable activities regardless of the circumstances set it apart as a destination of choice for outdoor enthusiasts.
