It\u2019s evening at the hotel: little Felix is beaming from ear to ear after his tobogganing adventures, Mum feels completely relaxed after her massage, while 8-year-old Lena is proud of having skied down her first red slope. Grandad Karl has a happy smile on his face after his walk in the snow with Grandma \u2013 and even moody teenager Max thinks Dad acted pretty cool today at the fun park. This is how a winter holiday in the Innsbruck region could turn out \u2013 because here, every generation has a good reason to be outdoors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sledging fun for the little ones<\/strong>
Tobogganing means fun for all the family \u2013 if only you didn\u2019t have to carry the little ones up the hill. Fortunately, the gondolas on the Muttereralm are at hand to whisk everyone to the top in no time at all. The family-friendly run down to the middle station is ideal for tobogganing with smaller children. Little ones who are ready to ski, on the other hand, will be right at home on the Gr\u00fcnberg on the Mieming Plateau. There\u2019s not only a magic carpet for them, but also a lovingly designed adventure playground. Meanwhile, for those who prefer to be out and about in the city, we recommend the playground in Innsbruck\u2019s Imperial Gardens, which has plenty of space to let off steam and explore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Enjoyment for older kids<\/strong>
Children love the Rangger K\u00f6pfl ski area in Oberperfuss with its easy slopes \u2013 ideal for beginners. This winter, the ride to the summit will be even more comfortable, as the T-bar lift has been replaced by a modern combined lift. And if the kids don\u2019t want to go skiing? How about ice skating instead? The outdoor ice rink at Olympiaworld Innsbruck and the ice rink in Telfs are ideal for trying on skates then whizzing across the ice. What if the children aren\u2019t into winter sports at all? There are numerous alternatives: they can go wild at the Flip Lab in V\u00f6ls, Tyrol\u2019s largest indoor trampoline park. Or, for those who prefer to exercise their senses rather than their muscles, the Audioversum in Innsbruck is truly a place to \u201cprick up your ears\u201d: an interactive science centre that is all about hearing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cool adventures for teenagers and young people<\/strong>
A somewhat different museum can also be found in the Kaufhaus Tyrol shopping centre in the heart of the city. The so-called \u201cExperience Tirol\u201d combines 3D adventures with virtual reality, presenting the region in new ways. Meanwhile, there are thrills to be had with bobsleigh rafting or riding a racing bobsleigh down the Olympic ice channel in Igls, with its 14 high-speed bends and spectacular \u201cKreisel\u201d curve. Budding freestylers will be totally in their element at the fun park in the Axamer Lizum or in the Nordkette ski area. And, to ensure that youngsters look fashionably smart in the snow, Innsbruck is also home to numerous relaxed snowboard and freeski shops, such as \u201cBlue Tomato\u201d and \u201cMoreboards\u201d. But even those who are not into sports fashion will hardly be disappointed by the shopping opportunities in the capital of Tyrol: in addition to the popular chains, there are well-stocked vintage outlets such as \u201cNowherevintage\u201d or \u201cWams\u201d, as well as original little boutiques such as \u201cfeinheiten\u201d and \u201ce.c.t. studio\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A time-out for the parents too<\/strong>
Mum loves sightseeing? Dad loves skiing? Or is it vice versa? With the SKI plus CITY Pass Stubai Innsbruck, both can have what they want \u2013 because both activities are included. For example, they can have fun on the slopes together in the morning, then spend the afternoon in a museum in the city. There is always plenty of variety in the Innsbruck region: as an example, the free winter active programme (included with the Welcome Card for guests) offers guided snowshoe hikes. After all that sport, it\u2019s now time to relax: and there are plenty of hotels around Innsbruck, such as at the VAYA Resort in K\u00fchtai, with tempting spa areas for Mum and Dad to take a break. And the best is that, while their parents are being pampered in the spa, the little ones can join in a ski taster course at the K\u00fchtai ski schools. No need to worry about the snow conditions, either, as this is Austria\u2019s highest ski resort.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fun for the grandparents too<\/strong>
A visit to Innsbruck\u2019s Christmas markets and the sparkling LUMAGICA light park will not just make the grandchildren\u2019s eyes shine with joy: here, the local culinary specialities, regional handicrafts and traditional Yuletide events, such as carol singing, attract young and old alike to the city. Those longing for peace and quiet after the hectic Advent season can also enjoy leisurely walks in the surrounding area. One easy yet scenic winter walk can be found in Igls where, from the Kurpark gardens, the route leads across wide fields towards Patsch, all with magnificent views of the Stubai Glacier. More athletic visitors can head for the Praxmar-L\u00fcsens cross-country skiing area, where snow is guaranteed throughout the season; or they can try out the trails on the Mieming Plateau for a nature adventure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
