Weekend ski trip from Munich airport - where should we go?

skifun wrote:Thanks Rose - my friend has just pointed out that Seefeld is about 2 hours from Munich, so we're looking at Garmisch too which would be closer.

We'll be arriving into Munich late at night so don't want to have to drive too far.

Does anyone have any tips about Garmisch? One reader review I saw said the upper lifts were a bit outdated, which doesn't concern me too much - but is it possible to ski back to village level there? And any recommendations for self-catering accomodation?

(I know Garmisch is Germany and this is an Austria forum, but the Germany forum is pretty quiet)

Thanks again.

Garmisch is just down the road from Seefeld isn't it? I can't see it's much quicker to get there really.
