The perfect family ski resort.

How do you find the perfect family ski resort? Who hasn’t experienced the uncertainty of choosing the right ski area for the next family holiday? Children should have fun and be well looked after – while the slopes remain exciting for parents. Ideally, the resort is compact enough so that no one gets lost, yet offers plenty of space to explore. We’ve put together seven things to consider when choosing – and why Warth-Schröcken is a prime example.

A basic requirement for any winter holiday: snow! Warth-Schröcken is considered the snowiest ski area in the Alps. The best part for families: the snow reaches the villages, so you can start skiing directly from your accommodation and return comfortably at the end of the day – without crowded valley runs. It doesn’t get much more convenient than this.

Many parents face the choice: small and cosy, so children can move around independently, or large and challenging for adventurous skiing? Warth-Schröcken offers both: 62 kilometres of family-friendly slopes, plus part of the largest ski area in Austria with over 300 kilometres of pistes. If desired, you can upgrade day by day to the entire Arlberg region. Perfect for varied holiday experiences.

To ensure all family members have fun, Warth-Schröcken offers numerous blue and easy red slopes. Children can celebrate their first successes on the slopes, while parents can enjoy more challenging descents. A flexible network of slopes ensures that the family can always stay together – or split into small groups for a while.

The villages of Warth and Schröcken have retained their charming village character. Short distances make life easier: ski school, information office, or accommodation – everything is close by. Children quickly learn to navigate independently, and family organisation on site is stress-free and relaxed.

Especially important for little skiers: safe practice areas. In Warth-Schröcken, there are several children’s zones with practice lifts, separated from the main slopes. Here, kids can practice without distractions, while parents watch in peace – a real bonus for the family holiday.

There’s plenty to do off the slopes as well. Adventures such as sledding, mascot meet-and-greets, or fun games give children new energy. A good family ski resort therefore offers not just skiing fun but also varied opportunities for shared experiences after skiing.

Unforgettable moments on a family holiday should be captured – preferably with a fun factor. Warth-Schröcken offers special photo points and the BMXxDrive Skimovie track to record the perfect family selfie or race video. This way, the highlights of your time together are preserved – and grandparents can join in virtually from home.
