This 1960 British Pathé newsreel captures competitive skiing on the Zugspitze Plateau in Bavaria, then part of West Germany. Set against the dramatic backdrop of the Wetterstein Mountains, the film shows rope tow lifts in action, relaxed moments in the snow, and lively slalom races featuring Austrian skier Kapferer and Munich’s Barbi Henneberger, later a Winter Olympic bronze medallist.
