Leogang is very popular with relaxed family holidays due to its child-friendly conditions. There are three good ski schools in Leogang. The best known is the traditional Skiszene Altenberger, founded in 1952 by ski pioneer Sepp Altenberger. This ski school has two areas specially designed for children.
The school boasts a high level of instructor training and the courses are productive. In addition to the ski school, snowboarding lessons are available and advanced skiers can improve their carving and off-piste skills. On Wednesdays the instructors hold a spectacular "Ski Jumping" event (KrallerAlm), where they give a spectacular demonstration of their skiing and riding skills.

A team of ski instructors will take care of the youngest children (who can't yet take turns on the snow machine) in the Kinderland children's valley. Don't worry, your children will be well looked after throughout your stay, with or without skis.
The 1.5 hectare area features four 'magic carpets', a merry-go-round, snow igloos, a knight's castle and many other interesting places to keep your child entertained. The Children's World is equipped with snow cannons, so even when the weather is less than wintry, the children can have fun and the lessons take place there.
