Cross-Country Skiing Inzell

Sunny skiing on the trails surrounding Inzell

Nestling in the majestic Alpine foothills, the winter sports resort of Inzell boasts 45 kilometres of trails for pure cross-country pleasure. The easy to intermediate routes run through the flat, broad and sun-kissed valley, and are immaculately groomed for both styles of skiing. There are eight trails to choose from here, all interconnected. As a result, everyone can easily put together their own cross-country itinerary.

Varied network of trails

The roughly 6 km Außerlandloipe is a particularly popular trail here. This demanding route at the foot of the Teisenberg is particularly attractive for endurance athletes, as there are several climbs and descents to be circumnavigated. Cross-country skiers who take on the challenge are rewarded with quite memorable views along the way. If you’re looking for a slightly mellower route, then look no further than the Filzenloipe. This leads over the Inzeller Moor and through an enchanting birch forest – a real treat for all nature lovers. Ambitious and athletic skiers can also try the Chiemgau-Marathon-Loipe.

Chiemgau-Marathon-Loipe

Inzell, Ruhpolding and Reit im Winkl are all connected by the roughly 35-km Chiemgau-Marathon-Loipe. This demanding route runs alongside the Alpenstraße and through a picturesque mountain landscape, past the Weitsee, Mittersee and Lödensee lakes. In Ruhpolding and Reit im Winkl, cross-country skiers can then access a further 100 kilometres of trails.

Skiing after dark

In order to combat those short winter days, there’s a night trail for cross-country skiing in the heart of Inzell. The route from Camping Lindlbauer Inzell is floodlit every Tuesday, Thursday and Friday from 5 PM to 9 PM, and is a magical winter experience. The 1.8 km route encompasses a vertical difference of 23 metres.
