Fahrt ins Weiße

Munich Carnival! In the midst of the hustle and bustle, a merry group joins the stream of skiers who left Munich's train stations early in the morning on special trains to enjoy the white splendor of the mountains. From Schliersee station, a short climb past snow-covered alpine pastures and hay barns leads to the host's hut. Once the first hunger pangs have been satisfied, the skis are waxed and off they go in a long line up the steep slope. From the Firstalm, the view stretches far down to the Sunday bustle of the winter sports resort. It's wonderful to bask in the February sun in a light swimsuit. But a snowball fight also has its charms. And just as much fun as the "hut magic" is the evening trip home on the ski train in "hearty" company.
