Fendels ski area

Family winter in the snow

Family vacation on the Winter Mountain

One ski area in the Kaunertal is not enough for you?

Then make your turns not only on the Kaunertal Glacier, but also in the Fendels ski area. The small but lovely winter mountain Fendels is right next door - and is extremely popular with families. Well-organised, guaranteed snow and a friendly atmosphere.

It is these attributes, above all, that winter holidaymakers appreciate. The location at the entrance to the Kaunertal and its direct connection to the idyllic mountain village of Fendels is also convincing.

Family ski area Fendels

Fun on the slopes

Families who want to spend their winter holidays in Tyrol with their children, parents and grandparents will find Fendels the perfect place. The place and ski area have retained their originality. The town and ski resort have retained their authentic character. Everything is on a manageable scale, not overcrowded, yet still offers all the facilities essential for a family winter holiday.

Kinderland - childrens playground

With Bibi and Kauni, learning to ski is at least twice as much fun. Magic carpet, tunnel, jumps and ski races invite every child to go skiing. The trained children's ski instructors at the Top Ski School Kaunertal-Fendels ensure that children learn the correct technique and also come up with exciting games to play without skis.
