Wide and clearly arranged ski runs, child-friendly lifts and inexpensive family ski passes make the two ski areas Almenwelt Lofer and Heutal Unken the perfect ski resort for families, beginners and those returning to skiing. A 140-metre long, roofed magic carpet in the Kinderland awaits the smallest ski dwarves, which will take the kids up to the top as a convenient lift. For young skiers and snowboarders the Lofi Funline creates exciting adventure rides. Off-piste, the circular hiking trails in the Lofer alpine world, the snowshoe hikes in the Wei\u00dfbach Nature Park and the toboggan run in the Heutal valley provide variety.<br>\nA special highlight for cross-country skiers are the trails in the Heutal, situated at 1000 metres altitude, or in the Almenwelt Lofer. The Heutal in Unken is also a true paradise for ski tourers. An insider tip during the Advent season is the small but fine Bergweihnacht \u2013 a\u00a0 Christmas market at Maria Kirchental, which takes place on two weekends in December.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_579582\" style=\"width: 1180px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-579582\" class=\"size-1170_658 wp-image-579582\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.salzburgerland.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/almenwelt-lofer-dronenaufnahmen-skigebiet-skifahren-c-salzburger-saalachtal-tourismus-urheber-eduardo-gellner-7-1170x658.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1170\" height=\"658\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.salzburgerland.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/almenwelt-lofer-dronenaufnahmen-skigebiet-skifahren-c-salzburger-saalachtal-tourismus-urheber-eduardo-gellner-7-1170x658.jpg 1170w, https:\/\/www.salzburgerland.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/almenwelt-lofer-dronenaufnahmen-skigebiet-skifahren-c-salzburger-saalachtal-tourismus-urheber-eduardo-gellner-7-1200x675.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1170px) 100vw, 1170px\"><p id=\"caption-attachment-579582\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Almenwelt Lofer \u00a9 Salzburger Saalachtal Tourismus<\/p><\/div>\n\n\t\t\t<div id=\"59743-3\" class=\"gallery gallery-59743 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-1170_658\" itemscope itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/ImageGallery\">\n\t\t\t\t<ul class=\"gallery-row gallery-col-3 gallery-clear\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<li class=\"gallery-item col-3\" itemprop=\"associatedMedia\" itemscope itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"gallery-icon landscape\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.salzburgerland.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/lofer-almenwelt-lofer-lofi-funline-kinder-boxsack-2-c-salzburger-saalachtal-tourismus-urheber-katrin-kerschbaumer-1601x1067.jpg\" title=\"TVB Lofer\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-title=\"\u00a9 Salzburger Saalachtal\" title=\"\u00a9 Salzburger Saalachtal\" data-caption=\"\u00a9 Salzburger Saalachtal\" width=\"1170\" height=\"658\" src=\"https:\/\/www.salzburgerland.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/lofer-almenwelt-lofer-lofi-funline-kinder-boxsack-2-c-salzburger-saalachtal-tourismus-urheber-katrin-kerschbaumer-1170x658.jpg\" class=\"attachment-1170_658 size-1170_658\" alt=\"Two children skiing on a snowy Saalachtal slope, wearing helmets and goggles, passing a padded obstacle in sunlight.
