Winter sports chalets and holiday homes in the Sumava Mountains

The majority of our holiday homes in Sumava are located in beautiful and relatively quiet surroundings, but this also often means a bit further from the slopes. Depending on the location of your winter sports chalet or holiday home, you can spend your days at one of the ski resorts listed above or, alternatively, use the small ski lift nearby. Another option is to spend the day at the Hochficht resort in Austria (20 km of slopes, altitude of 933-1337 m). Make sure to read the accommodation description and check the map to see how far the accommodation is located from a slope or ski lift. A number of areas of Sumava are highlighted below.
