Which ski and snowboard courses are there?

For children

In the children's ski school the youngest guests from 3 years onwards get in contact with ski or board for the first time with playful exercises in the kids park (depending on the ski school: Giggijoch, Innerwald or Hochsölden).

A children's ski course usually takes 6 days and includes morning and afternoon lessons. In order to make the most of the time in the huge ski area, the larger ski schools even offer lunchtime supervision including lunch.

For adult beginners

When teaching in small groups you make progress very quickly thanks to tried and tested instruction methods. Beginners can already do this ...

 

  • After day 1: taking the practicing lift, braking downhill and making turns.
  • After day 3: the first blue pistes are conquered!
  • After days 5-6: let's go and hit the red and blue slopes on the glacier!

For returners

Haven't been on skis for a long time, unsure about the modern carving technique?

A group lesson or even better two or three targeted sessions with a private ski instructor provide more security on skis, recall theoretic knowledge and promise ultimate carving fun.

Fine Tuning

You never stop learning, so even very good skiers can benefit from a few hours guided by a certified local ski instructor. Some ski schools offer their own perfection courses on a daily basis.

The freeride offer is also quite attractive for advanced skiers: together with a guide you will discover new terrain away from the signposted ski runs.
