A magical learning experience - Serfaus-Fiss-Ladis is home to Europe's most family-friendly ski area! There must be something magical behind it all. There is no other explanation for why children are suddenly turned into perfect carving artists after only a week of ski school in Serfaus-Fiss-Ladis. Parents note their progress with a mixture of pride and envy. Yet it is not witchcraft that turns roly-poly tumblers into small ski angels. Rather it is the method and manner of childcare provided by the enthusiastic people of Serfaus-Fiss-Ladis. In the ski region (at an elevation of 1500 metres), well over 140,000 m2 of slopes are reserved exclusively for children. In Serfaus, the winter paradise is called "Kinderschneealm" and is situated on Komperdell mountain. In Fiss, "Berta¡¯s Kinderland" is located directly next to the middle station of the Sonnenbahn cableway. 250 ski instructors with educational training playfully and good-naturedly teach children to ski and snowboard in their own languages. One method that they use to instruct the Ski and Snowboard pupils is called "The Easy Birth". The secret: if a child does not feel like participating, he or she can play or watch the clowns. The children's own ambition is enough to move them to catch up quickly on what they have missed and still achieve the learning target.
