My children, aged 12 and 14, who had skiing experience, felt very comfortable and were thrilled with how much they were able to improve their skills. The ski instructor and owner, Jürgen, was very helpful and friendly.
Both children took a course and both managed to learn and deepen their knowledge. They both had a great time, and I'll try it again next year. The instructors were really great and friendly! 👍 We'll definitely be back. The ski resort is also pleasantly small and family-friendly.
