    Aimed at families

    Hochficht has everything a family could wish for, from kiddie lands and practice areas, to easy-to-master slopes and Funslopes, to a child-friendly restaurant. The ski area is also easy to navigate, not too extensive and very well signposted. So children can't get lost at all.

    For the very first turns, Fichtl's Kids Park, a flat practice slope with a magic carpet, is ideal. Thanks to its location at the valley station, it is very easy to reach and parents can even watch their little ones directly from the restaurant.

    Another Kinderland is located next to the mid station of the gondola lift. In the Reischa Junior Park there is a covered magic carpet, a small fun slope and on the other side of the slope, along the Rehberg T-bar lifts, a wave trail.

    Kids who are already confident on skis will find variety in the fun slopes on the standard run (Hochficht) and the Hochwald run (Reischlberg). A small fun park, the Blackhill Park, can also be found at the bottom of the Schwarzenberg run. Future racers can have a good time on the comic slalom course on the Wenzelwiese or the race course on the standard downhill run. Whether or which fun slopes and elements are open and set up depends in each case on the snow conditions.

    At Hochficht, children and youths can ski at reduced prices. The youth rate is also valid for students up to 26 years of age. For the youngest children, there is also the KidsCard Mini for only 4€ per day (as of 2023). If the youngsters only want to use the Kids and Junior Parks, there are separate tickets for these areas, so that you don't have to buy a complete ski pass.

    For families absolutely top! There is a small beginner hill with magic carpet at the Reischlberg and a separate kidspark. In the main restaurant at the valley station there is a separate area for the ski schools, in which the parents can also stay well.
