Hinterzarten: not your average winter holiday in Germany

It’s getting quiet. And that’s what makes it so magical.

There’s a silence that only Hinterzarten can offer on a winter holiday in Germany. When snow lies on the fir trees, the air is crisp, and every step crunches, something changes. You slow down. Grow more attentive. Calmer. At Reppert, winter doesn’t start on the slopes – it starts on your doorstep. And it doesn’t end in the snow, but in the warmth of our hotel.

Winter hiking

Groomed winter hiking trails lead directly from Reppert into the snow-covered countryside around Hinterzarten. No noise, no rush – just you, the snow, and the vastness of the Black Forest. Guided hikes with the Reppert family and experienced Black Forest guides make it easy to discover the most beautiful routes.

Cross-country skiing

Just 300 metres from Reppert, the extensive network of cross-country ski trails in the Black Forest Highlands begins. Whether you prefer classic or skating style – here you glide through a landscape that defies description. You have to experience it.

Skiing

Baden-Württemberg’s highest peak is just a short drive away. Mt Feldberg offers slopes for beginners and advanced skiers – and with the KONUS guest card, you can travel there by bus and train for free. Après-ski? We do it differently. With a sauna, peace and quiet, and a glass of wine.

Tobogganing

Sometimes it’s nice to keep things simple. The toboggan runs around Hinterzarten are a great way to spend a winter’s day – and afterwards, a hot cup of tea awaits in the lounge.

And afterwards: warmth

The best thing about being outside in winter is the moment you get back inside. When the chill fades from your cheeks, the water warms you up, and the sauna does the rest. A 1,000m² wellness area, exclusively for our guests – that’s the highlight of every winter’s day at Reppert.

Tip: Reppert’s gym

Sometimes your body just craves a trip out into the wintry Black Forest. And sometimes it simply needs space for a few mindful movements, at your own pace. That’s exactly what our fitness room is for: bright, quiet, with a view of the snow-covered landscape – and equipped with professional equipment from Frei.
