The Stubai Glacier Ski Resort is considered to be one of the most family-friendly ski resorts in Tyrol, Austria. At the Big Family Ski Camp, a well-trained team is ready to teach small children how to ski and\/or to provide daycare while you are out exploring the slopes of the Glacier.

At an altitude of up to 3,440 m, the futuristic Wildspitzbahn mountain station marks the highest point of any ski resort in the country. This is also where you will find Caf\u00e9 3,440, the highest coffee house in Tyrol. From its sun terrace, winter sports enthusiasts can enjoy breathtaking views of the surrounding glacier world and many of the ski resort&#8217;s 66 kilometres of slopes.<\/p>\n<h3>Where can winter sports enthusiasts ski all year round in Austria?<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"772\" data-end=\"1089\">Only at the Hintertux Glacier in the Zillertal can winter sports enthusiasts ski 365 days a year in Austria. The glacier, which reaches heights of up to 3,250 metres, offers 60 kilometres of slopes for every level of skier. Due to its high altitude and excellent slope preparation, the ski area is a hotspot for skiing enthusiasts and professional athletes in both winter and summer. Even in summer temperatures, snow conditions remain stable, which is why the Hintertux Glacier is considered particularly snow-sure.<\/p>\n<h3>Which ski resorts in Austria are considered particularly snow-sure?<\/h3>\n<p>In the Austrian Alps, too, snow reliability is primarily a question of altitude. The glacier ski resorts, which include the Pitztal Glacier, the Stubai Glacier, the Hintertux Glacier and the M\u00f6lltal Glacier, are all above 3,000 metres and guarantee the best snow conditions from autumn until well into spring. And in the Obergurgl\/Hochgurgl ski area, the highest non-glacier ski area in Tyrol, skiers can enjoy an above-average long season at altitudes of up to 3,082 metres.<\/p>\n<h3>Which is the largest of Austria&#8217;s highest ski areas?<\/h3>\n<p>With 239 kilometres of slopes, the Silvretta Arena Ischgl\/Samnaun is not only one of the largest but also one of the highest ski resorts in Austria. The highest point here is 2,872 metres at the Greitspitz. There, winter sports enthusiasts can enjoy challenging descents and a magnificent panoramic view. In addition to the excellent slope conditions, Ischgl impresses with its legendary apr\u00e8s-ski offerings and numerous events that attract visitors from all over the world every year.<\/p>\n<h3>Which ski resorts in Austria are particularly family-friendly \u2013 even at high altitudes?<\/h3>\n<p>The Stubai Glacier and the Kaunertal Glacier are ideal for a family holiday in one of Austria&#8217;s highest ski resorts. Both ski resorts offer wide, clearly laid out slopes, modern lifts and special family areas such as children&#8217;s parks and practice slopes. At the Stubai Glacier, young skiers can learn the techniques for the slopes in a playful way at the &#8220;BIG Family Ski Camp&#8221;, while the Kaunertal Glacier impresses parents and their little ones with its quiet slopes and panoramic views at over 3,000 metres.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ski areas with high altitude slopes are characterized by two things in particular: snow security and great panoramas.
