Bardonecchia in Italy comes out on top for the best family-friendly ski resort with a 94.81 rating out of 100. Its ski school teaches beginners everything they need to know before they head out onto 34 miles (54km) of easy slopes. At $12 for a child’s day ski pass, it’s also an affordable option for families.

Second is Mondolè Ski, also in Italy, with a score of 94 out of 100. Ticket prices for children are even cheaper here at around $9.70, plus they have a ski school to teach them the basics. It’s a slightly smaller resort than Bardonecchia, with around 26 miles (42km) of easy slopes, but it has a good range of guest transport and a few intermediate slopes for the more experienced skiers in the family.

Bansko in Bulgaria is a haven for new skiers and comes in third for family-friendly ski resorts. It’s a little pricier than the other two, costing $25 per child, but the 46 miles (75km) of slopes are dominated by easy runs (27 miles in total) and 14 different lifts to take you between them. It even has an 8-person gondola lift so a big family can travel together – after everyone has passed ski school lessons, of course.
