Freeride Cross, the Snow Park and the Race Area offer more variety

Action for older children and teenagers

Those who are already confident on skis or a snowboard will find new challenges here. The family-friendly freeride cross course is 800 metres long and combines elements of ski and snowboard cross with naturally formed obstacles. The Freda lift takes you straight to the start.

At the Snow Park Montafon, a variety of lines and obstacles await anyone looking to hone their technique and gain their first taste of freestyle skiing. The Race Area sparks even more sporting ambition: here, speed is the main focus. This means that advanced children and teenagers will find a wide range of opportunities to further develop their skills on the snow.

Monti Lux supports young skiers

Monti Lux is the mascot of Silvretta Montafon. The lynx accompanies the youngest winter sports enthusiasts and makes the ski resort easily recognisable to children. This means that, as well as learning new moves and exploring the slopes, their first skiing holiday also features a familiar face.
