Of course by public transport! The best ski tours

<p>More excitement and a thirst for adventure in the mountains! The ski touring guide “Natürlich mit Öffis” presents 35 interesting ski tours, round trips, and cross-country routes starting from Munich—and comes with a new sense of freedom included: Since you travel by bus and train, you don’t necessarily have to return to the starting point—no more hunting for parking spots or dealing with traffic jams. The ski tours begin at bus or train stops and lead directly into the snow from there.<br><br> “Natürlich mit Öffis!” is the first ski touring guide in the Alps to describe all routes exclusively using public transportation. The book aims to inspire and motivate ski tourers to adopt a climate-friendly, sustainable way of getting around. Many new routes off the beaten path become possible because you no longer have to return to the parking lot. This freedom is one of the unbeatable advantages of public transportation: you can explore the mountains in a much more mindful and intense way. Every ski tour is a journey that begins right at your front door. Traveling to and from the destination with friends becomes a shared experience with plenty of time for conversation, snacks, and detailed planning. No one has to drive the group home on crowded roads at the end of the ski tour while exhausted and stressed.<br><br> From the vast array of possibilities, the four authors present their favorite ski tours, round-trip routes, and ski safaris between Berchtesgaden and Oberstdorf. The book includes a clear network map, tips and tricks for traveling by bus and train, and provides detailed information on how to get to and from each ski tour. The length of the tours, including the journey to the starting point, has been carefully chosen with the season and length of daylight in mind. The route descriptions are detailed and reliable, supplemented by tour maps and elevation profiles. GPS tracks are also available for download.<br><br></p>
