Ski vacations Bad Lauterberg - Culture, spa and winter sports in the southern Harz!

Bad Lauterberg

The spa town of Bad Lauterberg is located in the wooded idyll of the southern Harz Mountains, surrounded by rolling hills. Known as a state-approved Kneipp spa, the local spa centres and sanatoriums offer holistic treatments. A pretty spa park with old trees, a bandstand and a spa house are just as much a part of the townscape as the quaint old town with its attractive shopping street. Numerous shops, bars, pubs and restaurants invite you to stroll, shop, celebrate and feel good.

Bad Lauterberg looks back on 800 years of history, which guests can learn about in the quaint local history museum. The Königshütte industrial monument, with its historic foundry complex and the South Harz Ironworks Museum, commemorates the era of ore mining in the region. Guided tours also take place here in winter! In the surrounding area, the Bad Grund moor spa with its healing tunnels and Herzberg Castle with its interesting museum are worthwhile destinations for excursions.

Those seeking relaxation and active holidaymakers such as cross-country skiing enthusiasts will find a cosy place to stay in Bad Lauterberg during their winter holiday in a snow-covered winter landscape, which invites them to take long walks or cross-country skiing tours with around 73 km of cross-country trails and 18 km of winter hiking trails.

Harz

The Harz is the most Northern winter sport area in Germany and offers a diverse wildlife on a 2,200 km² big expanse. As soon as the first snow falls, winter sports fans find their way into this magnificent area, which is made possible by the Brocken (1,141 m), the highest mountain in Northern Germany. Especially in the villages around the National Park Harz, which was founded transnationally in 1995, attractive Alpine skiing, as well as cross-country skiing areas have developed. Cross-country tracks and pistes with varying degrees of difficulty, as well as toboggan runs and nature ice areas arrange for diverse recreational fun for the whole family. The dreamlike winter landscape can also be explored by way of one of the versatile winter hiking trails. Furthermore, numerous rustic restaurants invite you to enjoy a cosy evening with local specialities or international cuisine.
