Serfaus

Serfaus, perched on a sunny plateau in Austria’s Tyrol region, is a family-friendly ski resort renowned for its charming pedestrianised village, modern lift system, and access to the expansive Serfaus-Fiss-Ladis ski area with over 200 kilometres of slopes. Catering to all abilities, the resort offers everything from gentle beginner runs to challenging black pistes and fun parks for snowboarders. Accommodation in Serfaus is plentiful and diverse: upscale hotels feature spa facilities, fine dining, and ski-in/ski-out convenience; boutique lodges and stylish chalets provide a more intimate alpine experience; while self-catering apartments and family-run guesthouses offer budget-friendly comfort and flexibility. Thanks to the village’s compact layout and efficient underground transport system (which links the car park at the east of Serfaus to the bottom of the cable car at the other end of town), most properties are within easy reach of lifts, ski schools, and après-ski spots.
