A day of skiing together is something special—from the little ones’ first turns to exhilarating runs with kids and teens.
As a true family ski resort in Tyrol, we offer perfectly groomed slopes and family-friendly facilities. That’s why we offer this deal: Children under 10 receive a free ski pass when accompanied by a paying parent.
At the BIG Family Kinderland at the Gamsgarten mountain station, children learn to ski in a playful way and at their own pace. A covered magic carpet comfortably transports the little winter sports enthusiasts up the slope. A kids’ slalom course, tire carousel, and snow mammoth ensure that even the breaks are an adventure. In the children’s and youth ski courses, experienced ski instructors safely guide the kids through their first days on the snow.
Kinderland is located right next to the Gamsgarten mountain station and is accessible by gondola. This way, families can start their day on the slopes without having to walk long distances.
With 17 blue runs, the Stubai Glacier offers a wide selection of easy runs for families, children, and beginners. Wide, clearly laid-out runs provide ideal conditions for practicing your first turns and exploring the ski area together.
Thanks to its elevation of over 3,000 meters, snow conditions are reliable from fall well into spring. This makes it easy to plan family vacations, weekend getaways, and the first days of skiing each season.
If you’d like to learn to ski or snowboard with an instructor here on the Stubai Glacier, join the BIG Family Kids’ and Teens’ Ski Camp right at the Gamsgarten mountain station. Registration for the children’s ski course takes place at the Neustift Stubai Glacier Ski School ( right next to the gondola exit at the Gamsgarten mountain station).
