Farchant is just a snowball's throw (3 km) away from Garmisch-Partenkirchen. The ski slope "Am Ried" in Farchant is groomed daily good snow conditions provided and offers ideal possibilities, especially for children and beginners. The snowmaking system generally provides enough snow and enables thus perfect skiing fun.
Just let go and glide in the crystal-clear winter air, in the rhythm of your breath: cross-country skiing is like meditation and at the same time one of the healthiest sports of all.
Hiking on cleared paths is fun even in cold temperatures. The wintry fairytale landscape, the crunching snow under your feet and the clear, fresh air invite you to go winter hiking. Enjoy the peace and quiet away from the ski slopes and cross-country ski runs and be enchanted by nature.
Snowshoeing has become increasingly popular in recent winters. If you want to experience what it's like to trudge through freshly fallen deep snow, then a snowshoe tour is a good idea. Just switch off and enjoy!
Farchant in the Zugspitzland, a climatic health area with the most beautiful view of the Alpspitze and Zugspitze - things are a little more comfortable here than anywhere else.
Those who are looking for peace and quiet will find relaxation and deceleration in the nature and recreation park Kuhflucht as well as in the forests and on the mountains in the area.
Active regeneration can be found in one of the most beautiful outdoor pools in Bavaria, on a hike to the unique Kuhflucht waterfalls, on bike tours through ZugspitzLand, on our cross-country ski trails or on our ski slope. Explore the area with mountains, gorges and lakes - incredibly beautiful and varied.
Village idyll and living customs: Visit one of our forest festivals, a concert by the marching band of Farchant or the farmer's theater and experience how tradition and modern times can exist in harmony.
In 2021, the municipality of Farchant commissioned a mission statement. With the help of a citizen survey and several workshops, the values and identity of Farchant were developed.
The village mascot of Farchant is called FarchAnderl. The „Farch“ can be traced back to the Bavarian name of a pine type tree. This tree is a native conifer and can be found in large numbers in the nature and recreation park Kuhflucht.
