1 Hit the Slopes at Obergurgl-Hochgurgl, Austria
Seasoned skiers believe that it’s never too early to start skiing with children! Obergurgl is a small ski resort in Tyrol, Austria that is known as the ‘Diamond of the Alps’.

There are some children specific lifts as well, so the older kids can manage getting around by themselves. All through ski season, there is a weekly ski-show, night skiing and tobogganing. You can up the luxe quotient with a scenic helicopter ride or a champagne gondola lunch. gurgl.com
