Holiday Ideas

Off to the mountains: Tyrol's family regions in summer

Quality time with the family is sometimes one of the best moments you can experience - but unfortunately it is often neglected in everyday life. Because when tantrums meet mental load, sometimes there simply aren't enough resources left for laughing and playing together. It's different on holiday, of course, when you are looked after and can recharge your batteries in nature. If an entire region specialises in family holidays and offers everything from varied family activities and family accommodation to professional (and usually even free) childcare, everything you need for a relaxed yet eventful holiday, lots of wonderful memories and beaming faces in the family album - then a moment of quality time might even turn into a whole day. We have listed the best family regions in Tyrol here - you just have to decide for yourself.
