Best family ski resorts in Europe

How we picked

A great family resort needs more than a good kids' club: it wants gentle gradients, easy lift-served beginner zones, a safe village to walk around in and plenty of indoor backup for snowy days. These resorts tick all the boxes, from car-free Wengen and the underground-train Serfaus-Fiss-Ladis to slope-side Avoriaz. They are still proper mountains, but they are kid-friendly first.
