About the Activity
What to Expect
At weekends, our kids' ski lessons in Semmering give young beginners aged 5 to 17 the chance to discover skiing or continue to improve their skills. We offer full-day, 1-day and 2-day courses, taught by our qualified instructors using the latest Austrian teaching methods.
Our Leopark Kinderland is the perfect place for young skiers to take their first turns on the slopes in complete safety. With lots of equipment, including a magic carpet, interactive figures and other aids, learning is easy. If your child already knows a thing or two about skiing, the Happylift will give them the chance to practise on the slopes and build up their confidence.
Meeting Time
We meet at the ski school office, 15 minutes before the start of the lesson. The course tickets are available at the ski school office.
Lunch Care
From Monday to Friday, the lunch care is bookable on site for €14 per day and child. On Saturday and Sunday the lunch care is not available.
Equipment Rental
If you book including equipment, you can pick it up at our ski and snowboard rental until one hour before the start of the course or comfortably the day before.
Ski Pass
First-timers don't need a ski pass on the first day of the lessons. Advanced skiers need a ski pass for the lessons. Please talk to instructor to inform which slopes are skied on. The instructor will advise you which ski pass to buy and when.
Good to Know
Please note that the course only takes place with a minimum of 5 participants
Happylift: cash payment only
On December 27th and 28th, parking at the World Cup will be limited. However, a shuttle service will be available.
These beginner ski lessons at the Semmering ski school are a huge hit with families, with around 85% of reviewers giving a five-star rating. Parents are consistently impressed by the "super nice" and patient instructors who help kids learn quickly and safely. Many children are able to use the lift and ski down practice slopes independently after just one or two days. While a few reviews mention that groups can sometimes be large or that the course was too intensive for a 5-year-old, the overall feedback is fantastic, highlighting rapid learning progress and a fun, supportive environment.

Warm and competent childcare. Ski instructor Roman, in particular, with his pleasant and friendly manner, ensured that even after a strenuous and challenging four hours of skiing, our grandson (7) didn't want to stop. Thank you! Highly recommended!
