Adult Ski Lessons for Beginners - Waidring-Steinplatte

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.

As a beginner, you will learn the basic techniques of skiing, such as safe braking and making plough turns. The first steps are taken on the "Hausberg" practice hill before moving on to your first runs on a real piste.

To ensure every participant gets enough attention from the instructor, the groups are kept small with a maximum of 10 people.

The lessons start on the "Hausberg" practice area. As you progress, you will move to the nearby Pfindelfeld and the blue pistes of the Steinplatte ski area.

Please be at the meeting point 30 minutes before the lessons are scheduled to start.
