Arrival in the Alps
Your journey begins with a warm welcome at Die Arlbergerin. After settling into your family suite, take a gentle stroll through the snow-covered streets of St. Anton. The village lights create a magical atmosphere that immediately signals the start of your holiday.
First Day with Hoppl
The kids meet their certified instructors at the Skischule Arlberg. While they enjoy playful learning in the Hoppl program, parents can explore the vast 300km of pistes knowing their children are in expert hands. Meet up for a family cocoa at lunchtime.
Gampen Play & Sun
Head up to the Gampen playground. At this altitude, the views are breathtaking and the play areas are world-class. It’s the perfect spot for parents to enjoy the spring sun while the children explore the adventure zones designed by Arlberger Bergbahnen.
Indoor Adventure
Give the legs a rest day at arl.park. From climbing walls to the massive trampoline hall, it’s a high-energy alternative to the slopes. It's the perfect mid-week break to keep the children's enthusiasm high for the final days of skiing.
Schnanner Klamm Discovery
Experience the raw beauty of the Arlberg. A family hike through the Schnanner Klamm offers a change of pace. The dramatic rock formations and frozen waterfalls are a highlight for older children and nature-loving parents alike.
The Grand Finale
Your final day on the slopes is all about the "Best Of" runs. Watch the kids participate in the weekly ski race and medal ceremony—a moment of pride for every parent. Cap off the week with a family dinner in our cozy Sonnbichl Stube.
