The German Luge Championships 2012 took place on December 29, 2011 on the racing sled and bobsleigh run in Altenberg , Saxony .
Due to the tight World Cup schedule for the 2011/12 season , the competitions between the World Cup stations in Calgary (December 16-17, 2011) and at Königssee (January 5-6, 2012) were held. The titles went to Tatjana Hüfner in the women's singles, Felix Loch in the men's singles and Tobias Wendl / Tobias Arlt in the doubles. The Bavarian team around Natalie Geisenberger , Felix Loch and Tobias Wendl / Tobias Arlt won the relay competition .
The hosting of the German championships acted as a test run for the Luge World Championships in Altenberger Kohlgrund in February 2012 . The event also served as a farewell race for Jan Eichhorn , who subsequently ended his active career and later embarked on a career as a trainer at the Oberhof federal base of the bobsleigh and sledge association for Germany .

Relay competition
For the first time, a relay competition was held at the German Championships. It also served as a test run for the first staging of this competition at the Luge World Championships 2012 on the Altenberger Bahn in Kohlgrund , where the relay competition replaced the team competition that was common until 2011. The composition of the relay teams was determined by the coach of the German national luge team and took place along the training groups. The "Sunshine Training Group" around Natalie Geisenberger , Felix Loch , Tobias Wendl and Tobias Arlt secured the title in the relay competition in front of the Thuringian team around Tatjana Hüfner , David Möller , Toni Eggert and Sascha Benecken - who were around 5 hundredths behind. The Saxon relay team with Anke Wischnewski , Ralf Palik , Ronny Pietrasik and Christian Weise went on to the bronze rank - their deficit was 95 hundredths. The second Thuringian season with Dajana Eitberger , Jan Eichhorn , Daniel Rothamel and Chris Rohmeiss was only fourth despite Eichhorn's fastest time, ahead of the Winterberger quartet Corinna Martini , Christian Paffe , Robin Geueke and David Gamm and the second Saxon team Anne Pietrasik , Chris Eißler , Julius Löffler and Andreas Wolf . The second Bavarian team around Carina Schwab , Julian von Schleinitz , Tim Brendel and Florian Funk reached rank 7, Team Thuringia 3 did not reach the goal due to the disqualification of Nathalie Burkhardt , who missed the touchpad to hand over the baton; Andi Langenhan as well as Nico Grüßner and Toni Förtsch could not start.
