Family holiday in the winter paradise of Tyrol

Everything for the perfect winter holiday in Austria with kids

At the Tyrolean Mariasteinerhof you will find everything you need as a family for your perfect winter holiday: spacious chalets and cosy rooms, a holiday region full of ski areas, toboggan runs and many other snow adventures right outside the hotel door. You have plenty of time for joint activities and relaxing hours - thanks to 4-star comfort. The best thing: even if mum or dad have to work, the 4* Mariasteinerhof offers you a top opportunity to spend your holidays with the whole family - with workation!

The family's choice: a cosy family room in the hotel or your own chalet with a panoramic view?

The 4-star Hotel Mariasteinerhof, located in the village of the same name in the middle of the Hohe Salve holiday region, is the ideal location for a dream family holiday in Tyrol.

The beautiful, spacious rooms in the hotel exude inviting cosiness with their Tyrolean charm. You will immediately feel at home! For families with children, there are four-bed rooms or family rooms with a connecting door.

In the five idyllic chalets, which are located right next to the hotel, you can enjoy your holiday with your family in peace and quiet. With 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and a spacious kitchen-living room, one chalet is perfect for six people. And when the little ones slumber peacefully in their beds after a day of snow adventures, the grown-ups enjoy the private sauna in the chalet. At the same time, chalet holidaymakers don't miss out on the culinary 4-star treat: a richly filled breakfast basket is ready from 8 am. So you can enjoy breakfast in peace and quiet in your kitchen with a unique view of the mountains while still in your pyjamas.

In the afternoon, we will spoil you in the hotel with freshly baked cakes and tarts, coffee and cocoa. The 5-course menu in the evening is served in the hotel restaurant. This 4* comfort leaves plenty of time to spend and enjoy together as a family!

Skiing pleasure for all - from pizza piece beginner to professional carver

Number one on the wish list of winter outdoor family activities is clearly skiing! Big and small slope fliers are in the right place at the Mariasteinerhof! After all, the "Wilder Kaiser Brixental" ski world and the Kitzbühel ski area together form one of the largest ski areas in Austria and, with a total of 420 kilometres of slopes, also the third largest ski area in the world!

There is guaranteed to be a suitable slope for every ability: gentle, wide slopes for the first pizzas as well as panoramic pleasure slopes and rapid descents for the adult professional carvers.

Advantage for families: When you have had enough of the hustle and bustle of the big ski areas after a day full of fun on the slopes, you will find plenty of peace and quiet again in Mariastein and, despite everything, plenty of winter variety.

The Tyrolean winter wonderland for little ice princesses & snow princes

Winter carriage ride

How about a horse-drawn sleigh ride à la "Anna and Elsa" through the enchanted, snow-covered winter landscape? Afterwards, everyone warms up with tea and cocoa or mulled wine and "Jagatee" and fortifies themselves at the afternoon cake buffet.

Your host family at the Mariasteinerhof will be happy to organise this unforgettable winter adventure for you.

Tobogganing in winter holidays

What you can't miss on a winter holiday with the whole family is tobogganing and sledding! It's a very good thing that Tyrol has some of the most beautiful natural toboggan runs in the Austrian Alps in St. Johann and in the Wildschönau, and there are also many hills and opportunities to slide and romp in the snow around the hotel! Even the snow is enough for the odd snowball fight, building a snowman or a castle...

Winter hiking or snowshoeing

The winter hiking and snowshoe hiking are further alternatives for enjoying the glittering winter landscape to the full on holiday.

Difference between winter hiking and snowshoeing:

• Winter hiking lets you explore the wintry landscape on numerous prepared hiking trails
• Snowshoe hiking involves walking cross-country in the snow and conquering the mountains by trudging, equipped with special snowshoes whose large tread surface prevents them from sinking into the powdery snow.

Tip: Guided winter and snowshoe hikes are also offered in the Hohe Salve holiday region. Just ask your hosts in Mariastein!

Cross country skiing

A gentle way to move through the winter wonderland is cross-country skiing in the cross-country paradise of Mariastein.

Visit a Christmas market

What could be a nicer end to an exciting winter day than a visit to the Christkindlmarkt? During Advent, Mariastein hosts one of the most charming Christmas markets in Tyrol, providing a pre-Christmas atmosphere.
