Experience winter vacations with children in the Silvretta
Skiing with the whole family
Silvretta Montafon is one of the most diverse ski areas in Vorarlberg - a real winter paradise for families. 140 kilometers of perfectly groomed slopes, wide practice slopes and modern lifts guarantee skiing fun for every level - from the first snowplow to a sporty descent.
The child-friendly mountain restaurants in the ski area are a special bonus for families. Here there are separate play areas with professional supervision where the little ones can relax or let off steam in between - while parents take a relaxing break and enjoy the mountain scenery.
In the region's ski schools, children are sensitively and patiently introduced to skiing. Small groups and individual supervision by experienced ski instructors create ideal learning conditions.
A highlight for families with younger children is the free “Kids on Ski” program: children between the ages of 3 and 5 experience their first days of skiing in the Silvretta Montafon in a fun and safe way. The package includes ski lessons, rental equipment, lift pass - and even an overnight stay for the child in one of the partner hotels. This makes the introduction to winter sports uncomplicated, family-friendly and unforgettable. The perfect opportunity to grow into skiing together and get your children excited about winter in the long term.
Family-friendly winter activities away from the slopes
The Montafon also offers numerous winter activities away from the slopes for families who want to spend an active winter vacation in Vorarlberg together. Here, young and old will find unforgettable experiences in the midst of the snow-covered mountains.
Tobogganing in the Montafon
Tobogganing fun for the whole family: the Garfrescha natural toboggan run in St. Gallenkirch and the Golm toboggan run in Vandans are among the most popular toboggan runs in the Montafon. Both are also floodlit in the evening, offering special winter magic at night. Toboggans can be hired directly on site - ideal for a spontaneous family outing in the snow.
Winter hiking with children
The region is known for its well-developed and groomed winter hiking trails in the Montafon, which are particularly suitable for families. Routes such as to Alpe Nova or Gasthaus Bella Nova lead through snow-covered landscapes and invite you to stop for a break along the way. This is a wonderful way to combine exercise in nature with enjoyment.
Snowshoeing in Vorarlberg
For active families with older children, snowshoeing in the Montafon offers a special opportunity to get to know the quieter side of winter. Family-friendly tours - for example from Gaschurn to Gortipohl and back - allow you to immerse yourself in the wintry mountain world and open up unique perspectives away from the pistes.
Horse-drawn sleigh rides in the Montafon
A romantic experience for families is a horse-drawn sleigh ride through the Silbertal or Gauertal valleys. Wrapped up warmly, the ride takes you through snow-covered valleys, past forests and farms - a moment of peace and wonder for children and adults alike.
Ice skating and curling in Schruns
The artificial ice rink in the Aktivpark Montafon is a popular meeting place for families in winter. Here, children can do their first laps on the ice while parents try their hand at traditional curling. Winter fun for all ages - indoors and outdoors.
