Hotels in Ammergau Alps, Germany

The Ammergau Alps in southern Germany are a stunning alpine region famous for the Oberammergau Passion Play, a centuries-old theatrical performance held every ten years. With snowy winters ideal for skiing and snowshoeing, and mild summers perfect for hiking through wildflower meadows to the top of the 2,000-meter Hochschwarzeck peak, the region's climate shifts dramatically-expect temperatures from 20°F (-6°C) in January to 70°F (21°C) in July. Whether you're catching the 2022 play (next in 2030) or carving turns on the steep slopes of the Zugspitze Arena, the Ammergau Alps offer tangible experiences tied to its cultural and natural roots.
