About Kandahar downhill
The Kandahar has hosted the Kandahar races in Garmisch-Partenkirchen since 1954, and since its 2008 renovation has had the steepest section in the whole World Cup, the “Freier Fall”, with a 92% gradient. Experienced skiers can ride it as black run no. 5; less advanced skiers can start at the Kandahar Express middle station and skip the hardest sections.
Why it's on our list
- 92% at the “Freier Fall”
- Black run no. 5
- Start mid-way to skip the steepest parts
Opening hours, prices and seasonal openings change, so please check with Kandahar downhill before you go.
