But some resorts stand out from the crowd \u2013 either through sheer size, or through their unique features. This is also true for Serfaus-Fiss-Ladis. Five surprising facts about the family-friendly ski resort in the Upper Tyrolean Inntal valley:<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Underground traffic policy: the Serfaus Underground<\/strong><br>36 years ago, it caused a sensation in traffic policy circles: the smallest, highest underground in the world on air cushions. To the moon and back, and then five times around the world \u2013 that\u2019s the distance covered by the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.serfaus-fiss-ladis.at\/en\/Villages-region\/The-Serfaus-Underground\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Serfaus Underground<\/a><\/strong> since 1985. And in that time it has conveyed some 32 million passengers (without a single accident). In December 2019, the \u201cVillage Underground 2.0\u201d kicked off its first winter season \u2013 brighter, roomier and accessible wagons and modernised stations. And naturally, it\u2019s still free for all passengers. By the way: with Vienna and Linz, Serfaus is one of just three places in Austria with their own underground. But it\u2019s the only one that\u2019s also in the top ten ski resorts of the Alps!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Adrenaline for all! The unique action attractions for the whole family <\/strong><br>214 kilometres of perfectly groomed slopes, 68 modern facilities \u2013 no wonder that Serfaus-Fiss-Ladis has been in the running for the top ten best ski resorts worldwide for years. But skiing or snowboarding is not for everyone. No problem! Little (and large) <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.serfaus-fiss-ladis.at\/en\/Winter-holiday\/Culinary-joys-experiences\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">action heroes<\/a><\/strong> can get their thrills all day long in Serfaus-Fiss-Ladis. For instance, at the Schneisenfeger Family Coaster in Serfaus, which offers tobogganing excitement for the whole family. For even more excitement, there\u2019s the Serfauser Sauser Flying Fox or the Fisser Flieger. On the latter, up to four daredevils at a time zip down a wire at up to 80 km\/h at vertiginous heights above the snow toward the Skyswing. On this XXL swing, gravity is turned off for a moment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Just say \u201cI do\u201d: marrying at 2,600 metres in the Crystal Cube<\/strong><br>Intimacy with an incredible view: the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.serfaus-fiss-ladis.at\/en\/Winter-holiday\/Culinary-joys-experiences\/Crystal-Cube\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Crystal Cube<\/a><\/strong> is an oversized glass cube with completely mirrored sides at 2,600 metres altitude right in the middle of the ski resort of Serfaus-Fiss-Ladis. Provided you book in advance, you can feast like royalty. Sparkling Wine Breakfast, Luxury Lunch or High Tea \u2013 at the Crystal Cube, up to eight guests at a time can get to experience gastronomy at the highest level. A unique feature: at the Crystal Cube high above the roofs of Fiss, lovers can say \u201cI do\u201d in a romantic atmosphere in one of the highest and most spectacular civil registry offices in the Alps. Now that\u2019s a white wedding! But be careful \u2013 with the stunning 360-degree panorama, make sure you don\u2019t lose your voice at the decisive moment\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Shaky candidates? No, here children just learn faster<\/strong><br>Not enough superlatives yet? In Serfaus-Fiss-Ladis, Austria\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.serfaus-fiss-ladis.at\/en\/Winter-holiday\/Families\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>biggest ski kindergarten<\/strong><\/a> calls kids as young as three onto the thin planks. But that\u2019s not all! A one-of-a-kind attraction awaits the little racers of tomorrow: the Snow-V \u2013 a revolution in snowplough turning. The little ones stand on a kind of snowplough template that simulates the right movement. With this equipment, kids learn to do the snowplough up to one day quicker. But larger shaky candidates can also benefit from the novelty: \u201cWe also have a somewhat larger Snow-V for adult learners\u201d, says Eva Stark of the Ski School Fiss-Ladis, who was closely involved in its development. Snow-V \u2013&nbsp;the modern way to learn the \u201cpizza\u201d!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Early birds in the snow: take the Masner Express to watch the sunrise<\/strong><br>It is still pitch black and freezing cold when the Masner Express starts up early in the morning to the furthest part of the ski resort of Serfaus-Fiss-Ladis. The destination of the converted snowplough with passenger cabin is the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.serfaus-fiss-ladis.at\/en\/Winter-holiday\/Culinary-joys-experiences\/Sunrise-Hexensee\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Sunrise <\/a><\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.serfaus-fiss-ladis.at\/en\/Winter-holiday\/Culinary-joys-experiences\/Sunrise-Hexensee\"><strong>Hexensee<\/strong><\/a> at an altitude of 2,588 metres. Up here, a hearty breakfast and a spectacular sunrise await the early birds. And then? Carve the first trail into the virgin slopes! There\u2019s no better way to start a ski day. But of course, the Masner Express is not just for skiers and snowboarders \u2013 non-skiers can also travel to the Hexenseeh\u00fctte restaurant. So why not bring grandma and grandpa along?
