Family trip to Saas-Fee with children. Ideas on where to go with your child

If you come to Saas-Fee with a child, you should visit the Kids Fun Park at least once. It will not be interesting for children under four years old here. Besides, this place will not be safe for small children. Preschoolers or younger students who are still poorly standing on skis will have something to do here. There is also a snow carousel, tubing, and slalom with fun figures in the park. Also, there are always a lot of visitors here. The park is open only in the morning on weekdays. You can visit it from half-past nine to fifteen minutes past three. The child can visit any of the local ski schools or kindergartens at other times.

There is a children's department called Snowli at the large Swiss Ski & Snowboard School Saas-Fee. Animators work here. Internal competitions and discos are held every week. Classes are held in two types of groups. “Minis” classes are designed for kids 3-4 years old. “Junior” classes are held for children 4-6 years old. There are also classes for those who are seven years old or older with their training levels and 3 leagues: blue, red, and black. You can leave your child in the “Minis” group for 3 hours or in the “Junior” group for an hour and a half. A full day with lunch at school will take all the time from half-past nine to half-past three.

Children from 4 to 7 years old are invited to attend “Minis” courses at Eskimos school. Older children will go to the “Youngsters” group. There are 4 levels of learning different skills here. Different techniques and different figures are taught at each of them. There are also separate programs for older children. Children from 4 years old are accepted at the Pipo-Club in nearby Saas-Grund. There is even a private Pipo-Lift here. You can send the children there for half a day, from ten in the morning to one in the afternoon. Children from two years old can be left in the Hohsi-Nest nursery on Kreuzboden. Children can stay here for several hours, as well as for half a day or even for a whole day, while their parents will conquer the winter slopes. Copyright www.orangesmile.com

You can send a child from three years old to the Pingo-Club in Saas-Almagell. The child will be supervised here. He will also be taught the basics of skiing here. The school is open from ten in the morning to one in the afternoon. If you are staying at the Sheraton Resort & Spa, you can send your child to Wallo's Nursery School. A child older than six months will be taken there. You can also send your child to the Murmeli kindergarten. The child will be able to spend the entire day under the supervision of caregivers there, from nine in the morning to five in the evening. The GoSulinos kindergarten at Alphubel offers even more.

The kindergarten at the Wellness Spa Hotel Pirmin Zurbriggen is designed specifically to take your child there after school. It works from four-thirty to nine at night.

If you want skiing with your child somewhere, you should go to the area above Saas-Grund. It is designed specifically for young skiers. You can climb to the Native American habitat and Hohsi statues on the 138-meter ribbon lift. It has the poetic name "Magic Carpet". Special ski races for everyone with time measurement and awards are held here. Children can also relax and play in the hut after the ski race. There are almost real igloos, climbing walls, hanging bridges, and many other fun rides for kids in Hohsi-Land.

There are many green and blue trails on the slopes near Saas-Fee. They are ideal for novice young skiers. There are also activities for which no special training is needed. For example, you can go down the toboggan track Feeblitz. Its slope reaches 55 degrees in some parts. This entertainment is not for kids. But teenagers will be delighted with it, especially if they manage to ride at night on a lighted highway. Illumination is lit twice a week. There is also a toboggan run, an ice rink, and a Wellness Center here. The child can swim in the pool or play tennis here.

If the child is fonder of cross-country skiing, he should go to one of the eight beautiful trails. They are located near the resort. Active children will feel comfortable in Saas-Fee in summer. 350 km of hiking trails can be found in the nearby mountains. Hiking is probably the most interesting local entertainment. Well, where else can you find tame marmots, for example? A variety of routes will help to find a suitable route for the child. There is also a separate route of 5 kilometers for scooters and 70 kilometers of trails for mountain bike fans here.

Some of the activities in Saas-Fee are completely unsuitable for kids. But they will leave older children delighted. For example, this is overcoming rope routes in Adventure Park. You can explore the local beauty on the Alpine gorge route. You will not be allowed to go there without a mountain guide. But if the child is not afraid of heights, he will remember for a lifetime the local rope bridges, Tyrolean traverses, and other obstacles. There are also good routes for young experienced and novice climbers in the area of the resort.
