Winter in the Weissensee Nature Park

When winter reaches Lake Weissensee, the landscape is transformed into a quiet, glittering magical world. The air is clear and fresh, the snow crunches under your shoes and a special calm lies over the frozen lake. It's a season that doesn't have to be loud to be unforgettable - it touches you with its silence, its beauty and the unique natural backdrop.

Ice skating on the lake

Europe's largest prepared natural ice surface invites you to glide along. The ice cracks softly under your skates as you glide over the glistening white surface - surrounded by mountains and winter sun.

Cross-country skiing & trail paradise
