Discovery Adult Ski Lessons for First Timers - Saas-Fee

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.

These lessons are perfect for absolute beginners who want to try skiing for the first time.

The group lessons require a minimum of 4 participants. If there are fewer participants, the duration of the course is shortened.

The discovery lesson takes place on Sunday. Afterwards, you can book weekly group lessons for the rest of the week.

In this discovery lesson, you will learn the basics of skiing at your own pace.

The lessons take place on a beginners slope.
