The Kids Winter Challenge – Snow Adventures for Little Explorers

Saalbach is known for endless slopes, cool mountain huts, and the perfect mix of action and indulgence. But for families with kids, there’s an extra-special winter experience waiting: the Kids Winter Challenge.

This interactive winter rally transforms your family holiday into a snowy treasure hunt. At various stations around Saalbach Hinterglemm, kids are introduced to winter sports in a playful way – far beyond the classic ski lesson.

The mission? Collect points, complete challenges, and most of all – have fun. The stations are designed to spark a sense of adventure and encourage movement, such as:

Tobogganing fun at the Unterschwarzach lift, discovering animal tracks on the Treetop Trail, winter games at the Hinterglemm playground, torch-lit walks through the snowy forest, building snow igloos or taking on creative challenges.

The best part? At the end, kids receive a cool certificate – and the feeling of having experienced winter in a whole new way.

And while the kids are on their mission, you can truly relax – because at the 4-star superior eva,VILLAGE, you're in the middle of it all, with style.

Skiing with kids in Saalbach
Not every child is ready to conquer the steepest slopes – and that’s totally fine. In Saalbach, you’ll find plenty of beginner lifts and practice areas where little ones can discover the snow at their own pace.

Thanks to ski schools with qualified children’s instructors and courses specially tailored to kids, their introduction to skiing is gentle and playful. In small groups, they learn not just technique, but also team spirit and the joy of gliding.

Tip: Combine ski school in the morning with free play in the afternoon – for example at one of the Kids Winter Challenge stations. It keeps things fresh and motivation high.

More than skiing – family adventures off the slopes
Saalbach also offers a winter program off the slopes that’s sure to make family hearts beat faster. How about:

Night tobogganing on floodlit runs, llama trekking through snowy landscapes, horse sleigh rides as a romantic highlight, snowshoe hikes for all ages, a visit to the adventure farm with animals to pet.

It’s the perfect winter holiday mix of outdoor adventure and quality time.
