It was a bit chaotic at the beginning because a ski instructor had apparently cancelled. But the children felt very comfortable with ski instructor Carsten. He was very friendly and handled the problem of the missing instructor and the lift closure very professionally. In the end, everything was perfect! The children want to ski with Carsten again next season.
It was very good! I highly recommend this course.
Highly recommended. The ski course took place in a small group, allowing the instructor to give individual attention to each child. Our children learned a lot and had a great time.
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.
In these lessons, children will learn how to use their ski equipment correctly, how to start and stop safely, and how to ski in plough.
The lessons take place in small groups with a maximum of 8 children.
The lessons are offered at Rinderkopf in Torfhaus, the Sonnenberg ski area, and Wurmberg in Braunlage.
The meeting point is at the ski school flag at the Sonnenberg car park, 30 minutes before the start of the course.
If the minimum number of 4 participants is not reached, the duration of the lesson will be shortened.
