Ski holidays with children and the whole family!

Winter is just around the corner and many people are drawn to the mountains for a skiing holiday. Especially for families with children, a winter holiday together is a great thing.

Ski holidays with children – What you should keep in mind

When skiing with children, there are a few things you should keep in mind to make your winter holiday perfect. Both the choice of the right ski resort, i.e. which ski resort is suitable for ski holidays with children, and a family-friendly accommodation are important.

“When are we finally daaaaa?”

Do you remember this great commercial from the 90s where a family goes on holiday by car? There are dialogue shreds like: “Where is my toy?” – “I can’t get to it now”, a hissed “I’m getting a divorce” from the passenger seat and (my personal favorite) the sulking “Daddy is a crackwurst” from the back seat.

Cabinet Garden: The gem for those seeking peace and quiet

Somewhat hidden, this gem at the edge of the Residenz, next to the Allerheiligen-Hofkirche, awaits those seeking peace and quiet. In the Cabinet Garden the hustle and bustle of the old town is far away – sun worshippers or bookworms who want to relax in peace usually come here. A fountain as well as two symmetrically arranged water basins provide for cozy water splashing, in addition some mighty and many smaller trees donate some shade and an opulent flower planting sets coloured accents. A garden for connoisseurs. The architect Peter Kluska received the Landscape Architecture Prize 2005 for his design of the Cabinet Garden.

The Khao San Road is the centre of backpackers from all over the world.

Always high activity on the backpacker planet

Low-priced all-round care for transit passengers on the Khao San Road

It is only about 400 meters long and yet the most famous street in Bangkok: the legendary Khao San Road. For decades it has been the undisputed centre of international backpacking tourism. In the meantime, the entire quarter around the actual road has adapted to the needs of Western individual travellers in terms of both offers and comfort. It is said that whoever lands on the Khao San Road has left Europe, but has not yet completely arrived in Asia.

Nicholas pulls on his self-rolled cigarette, rinses it with a strong sip of beer and, with his forehead folded, looks at a European couple who are strolling down the street with their two small children. “You couldn’t have imagined something like this 15 years ago,” he mumbles shaking his head. This means the Khao San Road – probably the world’s most famous street in Bangkok, which has been the absolute centre of international backpacking tourism for decades. Since the mid-1980s, the approximately 400-meter-long street in Banglampoo, Bangkok’s central district, has been the place to go for experienced globetrotters and young backpackers on their first individual trip.
