Where can I go skiiing if visiting Amsterdam in December?


Travel Info
I'm going to Amsterdam at the end of the year, and I'd like to go skiing. Is there any skiing close by, or should I rail to Germany, France, or other? Can I take a bus/train to a ski mountain? Can I rent skis? I'm American :)

Travel Tips
The Netherlands is flat, flat, flat. No skiing anywhere near Amsterdam. So yeah, you'll have to travel to Germany or France (or Austria or Switzerland). There are organised bus tours, but that wouldn't be my 1st choice. I have added the link for the Dutch railways, which for some sick reason is only in Dutch.

Other Travel Tips
No skiing in Amsterdam it is all below sea level. You can go to France, Switzerland, Germany
Wotcha Squidgy............the only skiing you could do is water skiing on the canals !

The closest place for you to go skiing from Amsterdam is to the French / Italian Alps.
Of course you can ski in Amsterdam! The Dutch built much of the country by creating land where there was previously ocean, so of course their skiers won't be deterred by living in a place that's flat and below sea level:

whoa, I guess you did not do your homework about Amsterdam, or the rest of our country!!

We are the flattest country on this planet!!!

Austria and Switzerland are good for skiing, and you will find many Dutch people there............

You can go there by train or coach, plenty of travel agents in Amsterdam that can sell you the trip for a reasonable price.

Skiing in Amsterdam................lmao....
