Everything was perfect.
We were absolutely thrilled with the children's ski course. My daughter learned to ski in no time and had an incredible amount of fun. The ski instructors were very patient, friendly, and catered to each child's individual needs. Everything was perfectly organized, and we always felt that our daughter was safe and well cared for. This is exactly what you imagine a perfect introduction to skiing to be – we would recommend the course without hesitation.
Small group, great teachers
You should wear warm clothing suitable for winter sports. Other accessories such as gloves, a ski mask and sunglasses are strongly recommended.
You must arrive at the first lesson with your equipment (skis and poles or snowboard, and boots). If you do not have your own equipment, make sure to allow enough time to collect it from the rental shop so as not to delay the start of the lesson. Some shops even offer the option of collecting equipment the day before your first day of hire.
Wearing a helmet is compulsory for children in some countries, but it is strongly recommended for everyone, regardless of age.
Unless otherwise stated, you must have your ski pass with you for the first lesson. You can usually buy one at the ski lift office or online. Discounted rates may be available for children or beginners, so check with your ski school to find out which pass is most suitable.
Generally, it is advisable to book lessons as early as possible. This is especially important during school holidays, such as Christmas and February, when lessons can fill up quickly.
This course is designed for children between 7 and 8 years old who have no previous skiing experience.
Your child will learn the basics of skiing, such as braking, the snowplough and making their first turns on easy slopes.
You will meet every day between 9:00 and 9:20 a.m. at the ski school office in the Hexenritt ski area.
