Check dates on SnowTrex
Prices per person from SnowTrex’s partner feed, checked 13 November 2026: the lowest price for that stay length in the 2026/27 season, with the lift pass where stated. That is usually a low-season week with every bed in the room or apartment taken; Christmas, New Year and February half-term weeks cost more, and SnowTrex shows the exact price once you choose dates and the number of people. Distances are from the property description. You book with SnowTrex on its site for your country: snowtrex.co.uk in English, or its German, Dutch, French, Polish or Czech site; we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you.
Getting there: For Schmittenhöhe Zell am See, the ski area with the most stays here, transfers go to Zell am See; the main airport is Salzburg Airport (SZG), 94 km by road (about 1 h 35 min); a private transfer from there starts at €204 per vehicle. The packages don’t include the journey: compare transfers to Zell am See from all 6 airports.
Travelling from the UK? Standard travel insurance usually excludes skiing, and a GHIC won't pay for mountain rescue: compare winter sports cover.

What to know
Child discounts change the maths
Hotels listing “big child discounts” often charge little or nothing for young children sharing a parents’ room. Enter children’s ages on the booking page to see the real price.
Book ski school before you travel
Group lessons for children fill up in school holidays. Book them when you book the stay, and check the meeting point is near the hotel or ski bus.
Short walks matter more than big ski areas
With small children, a short walk to the nursery slope and a ski bus stop by the door matter more than the size of the ski area. Each card shows the distances where SnowTrex publishes them.
Half board saves a lot of effort
After a day on the slopes, dinner in the hotel is easier than cooking. Half board is the norm in Austria and South Tyrol.
Half board is the standard
Most Austrian ski hotels sell half board with a multi-course dinner, and many 4-star hotels have a pool and sauna. Lift passes are usually for the whole region (Ski Amadé, SkiWelt, Zillertal Superskipass).
