My Gastein experience
Mountain adventures, nature experiences and soothing thermal waters come together in this picturesque valley to create the perfect mix for guests of all ages.
Between mountains and valleys, a new adventure awaits every day. Sometimes it’s a child-friendly hike through nature, sometimes a ride on the pump track, or a fun afternoon out on the ice. Whether in summer or winter, families in Gastein enjoy real quality time – sharing laughter, wonder and memories that last.
For many families, the snowy months are the most wonderful time of the year. And in Gastein, winter is not only about sports but about family fun too! In three lovingly designed practice areas, children and beginners learn how to tackle gentle obstacles and the magic carpet in a playful way. For more adventurous kids, Familypark Gastein offers small kickers and jumps. Alternatively, families can take a spin on the ice rink, try their hand at Alpine curling, or enjoy any number of other winter adventures.
After a day full of excitement, the warm thermal waters are calling. Both Alpentherme and Felsentherme spa have dedicated children’s areas, so while the kids enjoy the slides and lazy river, parents can relax in the sauna or unwind in the thermal zone.
Blue skies, mild temperatures and a natural landscape made for discovery: Gastein offers the perfect setting for adventurous families in summer. Set off together on a family-friendly hiking trail and experience nature up close. Many routes are designed to be easily accessible, even for families with pushchairs. For the little ones, there’s even more to explore: hiking adventures with mascot GASTI, fun themed trails such as the motor skills trail at Schlossalm, or a playful stop at the Fulseck forest playground.
And there’s plenty of family fun waiting beyond the hiking trails too, from mountain biking at the pump track and trying asphalt curling to enjoying the child-friendly concerts of Familien:Klassik. Plus, Gastein’s extensive weekly programme for families adds extra variety to your stay.
A winning combination at any time of the year: adventure and wellness. After an active day in the mountains, the thermal spas invite you to relax, splash and marvel – for example, at Alpentherme spa’s one-of-a-kind underwater aquarium.
Tip for families: The Mountains & Thermal Baths Card Gastein combines mountain railways and thermal baths in a single season ticket and enables a summer season full of nature experiences, summit views and relaxing moments in the thermal waters.
