Bamberg in January |

| I will be making my second visit Bamberg this January. My wife and I are attending the biathlon races in Oberhof in Thüringen (about 120km/75 miles north of Bamberg), which takes place Thursday to Sunday, 9-12 January 2025. We are probably flying in to Frankfurt and possibly renting a car. Flights are way cheaper if we fly in on the 8th and go to Bamberg after for a few days on the 13th-15, but I was wondering if it might be worth it to try to catch the very tail end of the Christmas season? Any insights on what to expect in Bamberg (or elsewhere in Franconia) in dreary January, or especially things to look forward to that I might not be aware of. I'm afraid that places might close down to go on vacation after the busy Christmas season. Any cozy spots with a fireplace that are good for a long winter night of drinking? And any tips on places to visit in Thüringen would also be appreciated. The races are in the afternoon, so I'll have a fair amount of time the rest of the days. |
