At an altitude of 2,869 metres with guaranteed snow, you can choose between the three " sun terraces" Fiescheralp, Bettmeralp and Riederalp.
It's best to visit all three! Luckily, you only need one ski pass - and no car! Because once you arrive in the ski area, you can reach your destinations on skis or snowboard and with ski lifts and cable cars.
A paradise for families, children and beginners: ski schools and courses right on site

In the supervised "Gletschi programme", 4 to 12-year-olds are looked after and can take part in rope park visits, enjoy indoor playgrounds and scavenger hunts.
There are also special children's areas and practice areas for the little ones, such as "Kindersonnenland" and "Prinzenland" on Bettmeralp or children's parks on Rieder- and Fiescheralp. The countless ski schools guarantee that beginners of all ages are well looked after and can learn their first turns safely.
