Skiing fun for families

Ideal for little slope starters

Skiing on the Planai and Hochwurzen is an all-round successful experience for families with children. Varied children's areas, perfectly groomed practice slopes and well thought-out services create ideal conditions for a relaxed day's skiing - both for young beginners and for parents who value comfort and safety.

Perfect conditions

for young skiers

The spacious Hopsi Winterkinderland on the Planai is located directly at the mountain station - safely accessible, clearly laid out and with plenty of space for practicing. Conveyor belts, colorful figures and a varied terrain make learning fun and playful. This is where children make their first turns.

Family-friendliness is also a priority on the Hochwurzen. Access via the Rohrmooser Weide at the Tritscher ski school area or at the HOPL ski school offers ideal conditions for beginners: gentle slopes, short distances and clear surroundings make the area perfect for first skiing experiences. Rohrmoos and the Hochwurzen are quiet, sunny and particularly popular with families.

Ski schools & supervision

Professional ski schools offer age-appropriate lessons - from group courses to individual training. The ski instructors not only have experience, but also the necessary sensitivity. With clear learning steps, lots of motivation and positive feedback, children quickly develop confidence on skis.

Infrastructure for families

From the valley station to the hut - everything is designed with families in mind: Barrier-free gondolas, ski depots, family-friendly sanitary facilities and easily accessible restaurants ensure comfort throughout the entire skiing day. Particularly practical: the WEST winter sports center with direct proximity to Schladming train station - ideal for those arriving by public transport.

Culinary delights,

that also tastes good to children

Many huts and restaurants on the Planai & Hochwurzen offer special children's menus, family-friendly seating areas and a relaxed atmosphere. If you need a break in between, there are plenty of cozy places to warm up and recharge your batteries - both indoors and outdoors.
