Maurach am Achensee
There's no shortage of family activities in Maurach in the winter. While the little ones practice their first turns in the ski school, the older siblings hit the slopes under the expert guidance of a ski instructor. The parents explore the cross-country ski trails along the lakeshore while the grandparents set out for leisurely winter walks. In the afternoon, the whole family regathers, ready to recount a day of adventures. The Atoll Achensee is perfect for winding down together. Splash about to your heart’s content in the Panorama-BAD complete with family pool, children’s pool with water playground and a 90-metre flume water slide. The Penthouse-SPA offers various saunas and a range of massage treatments.
Achenkirch am Achensee
Achenkirch is also ideal for a day out with the extended family. The ski area Christlum is known for its wide slopes, which are most suitable for families with children. Alternatively, the parents can go ski touring while the tiny tots make their first turns in the ski school. For a special shared family experience, join our ranger-guided winter hikes where you get to observe the wildlife of the Nature Park Karwendel, Austria’s largest nature park.
Pertisau am Achensee
At the ski lifts Planberg and Wiesenlifte in Pertisau, the professional instructors of the local ski school cater to skiers of all ages and skill levels. In the ski area Zwölferkopf, parents and children can swoop down the slopes together. The grandparents might enjoy the 1.5-hour panoramic circular walk. If you are looking to satisfy your need for speed on the snow, how about a tobogganing ride on the natural run from the Zwölferkopf to Pertisau? If you want to repeat the thrill of the ride, take the cable car up the mountain. A second toboggan run winds its way down from the Rodlhütte which can be reached by foot or “Rodlexpress” shuttle. Pertisau is also known for its outstanding cross-country ski trails.
Steinberg am Rofan
Small, tranquil, and perfect for people looking to connect with nature: Steinberg am Rofan is a winter storybook idyll. It is also an excellent place for winter hiking, tobogganing or cross-country skiing, alone or with the whole family. Steinberg is one of Tirol’s “Mountaineering Villages” which focus on environmental awareness and sustainable tourism.
Wiesing
In winter, the small community of Wiesing boasts a beautiful panorama. Visitors can explore the snow-covered landscape on groomed cross-country ski trails and cleared winter walks. There is also a toboggan run which is 3 kilometres long.
