If you ever find yourself in Munich and don’t fancy the two and something hour drive into the Austrian Alps, Spitzingsee in Southern Bavaria is well worth a look in.
Featuring only a handful of lifts but offering some decent length runs and plenty of off-piste tree-shredding potential, Spitzing is nothing short of epic on a powder day.

Spitzingsee also features a Burton sponsored park with a good assortment of kickers and rails, although its low elevation does mean that it’s sometimes not fully set up until January.
