Family activity holiday
in Styria - weekly programme
Fun and experiences for parents and children
Our family programs for your activity holidays in Styria are designed to appeal to both parents and kids. Together, we explore the region's most scenic spots in our own cars.
An absolute mountain and nature enthusiast, our junior director Katharina loves sharing her hiking passion with guests by taking them to the beautiful surroundings of the Schladming-Dachstein region. Athletic guests can join an impressive hike with Katharina, good fitness level and hiking gear provided.
Also our kids entertainer Stefi accompanies excursions. She leads leisurely walking tours suited for families that prefer a more relaxed approach. These tours are adjusted to the age of the participating children and include playful interaction to ensure they have lots of fun during their activity break in Schladming. Regardless of how active they've been, the two groups led by Kathi and Stefi get together in an alpine hut to round off a beautiful day with gourmet treats.
Families with toddlers are welcome to join the shorter tours along pushchair-accessible footpaths.
If required, back carriers can be rented at the hotel.
We've made you a rough sketch of what your activity program during your holidays in Styria might look like. The supervised schedule varies on a weekly basis and depends on the age of the kids.
Each day of your family break in Schladming/Styria features a new adventure! The variety of hiking options also delights our many regular guests who get to see more of the hidden gems of our beautiful mountain region year after year.
