Visitor Reviews of Winterberg

Andreas Kruse from GERMANY writes:

I am a resident of Winterberg and perhaps it is interesting for you to learn that Winterberg is ready for skiing even if there is not enough natural snow, provided the temperatures are around freezing level. In most places they have installed snow cannons (is that what you'd call them in English?) that produce snow all through the night and in the mornings it is spread all over the slopes. At the moment (Dec. 2008) the skiing conditions are still very good and we are expecting new snow throughout the next weeks.
This area is very good for families who want to teach their children how to ski as our slopes are not as demanding as those in the Alps and they are good for the smaller budget that families usually have, too. And the lift-passes don't cost as much as in Austria or Switzerland either.
See you in Winterberg soon ;-)
