- 75 delegates for 2 nights
- Good flight access with several flights per day so that the company did not all have to take the same flight
- Skiing for all abilities
- A nice environment for the non- skiers to enjoy with some activities to take part in
- A good nightclub to go to with reserved area after their gala dinner
- Good value for money
The Solution
Garmisch-Partenkirchen proved to be a good solution due to its very short transfer from Munich which also has decent flight access. The Obermuhle is an excellent 4* hotel which worked perfectly for this group as it is located within walking distance of the centre of town with access to good restaurants and a nightclub. Non-skiers could enjoy the use of all the hotels facilities, walk around the delightful town and also take part in group lunches up the mountain plus enjoy some non-ski activities.
Highlights & Challenges
- Sourcing accommodation in a popular resort for a 2 night stay
- Equip group with ski equipment in a very short time period on arrival night so they can get out to the slopes first thing on day one.
- Transferring guest from the hotel to the slopes in private coaches
- Ensuring that guests were put in the correct ski groups subject to their ability
- Offering non-ski activities such as snow shoeing and tobogganing and spa treatments
- Last minute changes to the main group curling activity as the outside rink was not deemed usable due to adverse weather conditions and the back-up option of the inside ice-rink could not be used because there was a local competition taking place.
