Family ski resorts - affordable offers for families
A winter holiday in the snow is an experience for the entire family. For a fulfilling and carefree time on the piste, the ski area of choice must meet several requirements for each member of the family. On this page, you'll find our family-friendly offers for ski areas that will meet these criteria best.
First and foremost, it's all about the children. Therefore, good childcare services and family-friendly services are crucial. One thing is for sure, though: in practically every ski area in the Alps, you can be sure to find a qualified ski school, of which will expertly teach your kids, whether they're young beginners to intermediate teens. While the older kids will work on their parallel turns and maybe even try out a few tricks in the children's fun park, the younger kids will be tended to in the ski kindergarten. In some ski areas, childcare for children and infants under the age of 3 is available for the entire day.

The lovingly designed children's areas with practice lifts can most of the time be found near the valley and in a fenced-off area in which even the youngest skiers can be taught how to ski undisturbed. Here, you'll find a child-friendly infrastructure with conveyer belts ("magic carpets"), a children's carousel, or sometimes even a park with whimsical figures placed throughout it. Oftentimes, a fluffy, colourful mascot helps tend to the children. Older children can take the tow lift to prepared wave runs or an adventurous obstacle course. More and more chair lifts are being constructed with child-friendly qualities and special safety devices for passengers with a smaller stature.
Ski huts and restaurants in family-friendly ski areas tend to serve up children's meals and even smaller, child-friendly toilets. Such ski areas also tend to have child-friendly free time activities off the piste like playgrounds, ice skating rinks, or tobogganing and tubing runs.
Another huge plus and typical indicator of a family-friendly ski area are the discounted or even free childrens' lift passes. These are also already included in many of our family-friendly offers! Be sure to take a look at the "Reductions" tab when viewing the accommodation description.
Family-friendly ski areas should have all of these benefits and services and will be sure to fulfil your wish for a diverse, care-free winter holiday with the kids. No matter which family-friendly offer you choose: you won't regret it!
