The Ski Resort
The popular family ski area Laterns is located in the heart of Vorarlberg, only a 15-minute drive from the Rhine valley motorway. The resort at Gapfohl mountain convinces not only with well-groomed departures, but also with reasonable prices.
In addition to the well-groomed slopes, family friendliness was also awarded with seals of approval. This can be felt right away in "Kinderland" at the top station of the four-seater chairlift. Here the youngest children (from 3 years) are looked after free of charge, while parents can explore the ski area on their own. Of course there are special family day passes in Laterns, which make skiing fun affordable for the whole family. A four km long natural toboggan run, on which guests whizz down to the valley on skids, also offers fun off the slopes!
