Ski Area Geißkopf
Approx. 5 km from Bischofsmais, the ski area "Geißkopf" offers skiing fun on a manageably-sized yet splendid area with 8 km of pistes. Both beginners and experienced skiers alike will find what they are looking for. Even the pros will have loads of fun on the broad slopes. The little ones can practice their first swings on the children's area "Geissleinpark". For snowboarders and free riders there is a fun park with various jumps and rails, etc. Especially exciting are the flood-lit runs which offer fun on the pistes after dark. The total region provides further ski areas, such as the approx. 30 km distant ski area "Großer Arber". This offers approx. 10 km of additional descents of all levels of difficulty, and even a world cup run! Due to high investments for the lift and snow making systems, the ski area has been greatly modernised in the past few years and therefore caters to skiers, ensuring good snow conditions right up into spring.
