✍️ Our verdict on Glacier du Kaunertal

A human-scale resort, Glacier du Kaunertal focuses on the quality of its welcome and its closeness rather than on impressive figures. Its 55 km of runs are ideal for a 3- to 4-day stay, especially for families or for skiers who don't need to keep changing their playground. Glacier du Kaunertal's family reputation is well earned: dedicated beginner areas, a well-run childcare service, well-groomed green runs and a friendly atmosphere at the foot of the lifts. It is one of the most reassuring resorts in the Northern Alps for laying the foundations of skiing with children. As for snow, Glacier du Kaunertal is in a strong position with its highest point at 3,113 m — even in capricious winters, the upper runs hold up well until April. The village at 2,150 m is also well placed to offer comfortable conditions from mid-December onwards. The budget for a stay at Glacier du Kaunertal is clearly high: 75€ for a day lift pass, plus accommodation and mountain restaurants among the most expensive in the Alps. It's the price of excellence — but you should be aware of it before you go. In short: Glacier du Kaunertal lives up to its promises. A Northern Alps resort that will suit most profiles without disappointing.
