By cable car

[edit]
  • 1 Dorfbahn. Serfaus has a 1280-m-long underground cable car that links a parking lot in the east with the ski lift in the west. It was built to spare the small village a lot of surface traffic and depending on your definition of "subway", it makes Serfaus the smallest "city" by inhabitants with a subway.

Serfaus centre

There is a large ski area with 212 km of slopes between 1200 and 2800 m. 135  km of slopes can be covered in snow.

There are 11 drag lifts, 16 chair lifts and 11 gondola lifts. Many gondolas and chair lifts have weather protection hoods and heated seats. There are almost no waiting times. There are 135 km of cross-country ski trails for Nordic winter sports enthusiasts. The Serfaus ski school offers ski courses.

Tobogganing: In Fiss there is a 3-km-long toboggan run. It can be reached with the Schönjochbahn 1. The toboggan run in Serfaus is 4  km long and starts at the mountain station of the Komperdellbahn. Night tobogganing is offered in both places

Summer

[edit]
Serfaus in summer

In summer, Serfaus is much quieter. That's why special offers are offered to attract summer guests (especially families). For example, the mountain railways can be used free of charge with the guest card. The bus between the three villages can also be used free of charge. There is also free childcare and free guided mountain hikes.

There is a wide range of mountain biking options for "mountain goats". The cable cars also transport bicycles during the summer season.

Mountain hiking is also possible. Despite the ski area, the mountains are worth seeing. However, due to the large ski area, you have to travel quite a bit further away from the town to find completely untouched mountains in the high alpine region. The cable cars help with this and you can easily reach the undeveloped summit regions. An attractive day trip destination for experienced mountain hikers is the 3004-m-high Furgler. The Komperdell cable car to the 2320- m-high Lazid shortens the ascent from 1400 to 700  m.

An attractive route for families and beginners is the "Panorama-Genussweg". The easy-to-walk high-altitude trail between 1950 and 1820  m altitude connects the three mountain stations of the Komperdell, Sunliner and Möselalm cable cars. The return journey from Fiss is possible by bus.

For families, the "Adventure World Serfaus" in the area of the "Komperdell" cable car middle station is worth seeing. There is, for example,  an outdoor marmot enclosure and an adventure trail for children, the "Marmot Trail".
