Family ski holiday in East Tyrol

East Tyrol stands for unspoilt nature and small, family-friendly ski areas. The three ski areas in Obertilliach, Sillian and Zettersfeld near Lienz offer ideal conditions for enjoying winter in peace and quiet. The region scores with a wide range of offers - from gentle descents to winter excursions away from the pistes, for example through the Hohe Tauern National Park.

We recommend it because:

Three small ski areas with a quiet ambience and some with direct access to the city centre
Playfully learn to ski with BOBO the penguin or Willi the gnome
Ski schools with alternative activities in the snow such as snowball fights, snow tubing or tobogganing
