Ski vacations Ore Mountains - relax, discover and explore!
The mining history of this region began in the 12th century with the first findings of the valuable ore after which the region was named. You will not find miners here any more, but mine shafts and tunnels can still be visited today. The hard work can still be felt and seen just like it was back 600 years ago, when miners worked day in day out underground without any daylight.
The beautiful nature offers well looked after hiking tracks as well as great pistes and cross-country trails. The Ore Mountains are a unique combination of relaxation and adventure holiday for young and old.
