The division of children in our ski school is primarily based on the children's skiing ability and their age. If your children or children of friends have a similar skiing level, we kindly ask you to inform us of your wish when booking (using the comment function in the online shop: please only the first name + last name of the children), and we will do our best!

As our schedule for children groups is organised for one week (including competition etc.) we would suggest you to book the whole course of 5 days. But, of course – it´s also possible to take part for fewer days.

YES! It´s cheaper if you book the whole week at once. The difference between 3 and 5 days is not that much. If you extend after 3 days of lessons there are special rates:
1 day extension = Euro 45,-

The initial classification is done in advance by you. In the online shop, you have 6 different levels available. By clicking on the question mark (?) or in the menu bar "Classification Videos," you can see the videos for it. If the classification doesn't fit 100% at any point, there is, of course, the possibility to discuss a group change with the head of the ski school on-site (Info Point Mountain).

You only get money back if you have a medical certificate from a local doctor in case of injury or illness. To reduce your risk we offer a „testing day“.
In case that it doesn’t work against all expectations, we can change your booking to another course (e.g. from group lesson to private lesson; perhaps it requires an additional charge; you will only be charged for the days which were used)

We don't have a ski rental, but there are numerous sport shops next to our office.

We would suggest you to pre-book the group lessons via our online shop. You save time and get a guaranteed spot in the ski school. Of course you can also book the lessons directly in our office on-site.

You should take part one day after the other because the groups go on with their schedule and learn new things every day. A break in between could lead to a change of the group.

The training schedule of a group lesson is organised for one week. Especially for beginners we would suggest to take part at least for 3 days so that they are able to get to know the basics of skiing.
If you are an advanced skier and you want to refresh your skills we would advise you to take a private lesson for a fast improvement.

Lunchtime supervision is not included and costs € 16,- per child a day. This includes a meal with a drink.
