At our ski school office in Kaprun (Sigmund-Thun-Straße 18, 5710 Kaprun).
Specially trained multilingual children's ski instructors await your young stars at our kids' ski lessons in Kaprun and lovingly supervise them! The course is suitable for beginners aged 3 to 15 years who want to learn how to ski in a safe environment.
Here in Kaprun, we have various practice areas that we choose according to the age and ski ability of the children. On the first day of the course, we divide the children into groups so that they can hit the slopes with others of a similar level and age. Beginners get used to the equipment together with our ski instructors, learn how to drive in a plough and make their first turns.
The fun as well as the learning progress of your children in small groups is very important to us, so our instructors always incorporate playful exercises into the course.
Please come to our ski school office in the centre of Kaprun the evening before or 30 minutes before the course starts. Here you can pick up your course ticket and receive information about your meeting point (Sigmund-Thun-Straße 18, 5710 Kaprun).
We are also happy to look after the children during the lunch break if you book the option with lunch supervision. If you also want lunch for your kids, consisting of a meal, a dessert, and a drink, you can pay €18 per day on-site to the ski instructor (there are also vegetarian options). Please note that the lunch can only be booked on site.
Ski rentals can only be booked with a minimum rental period of one week.
First-timers do not need a ski pass for the first day of the lessons. The instructor will advise you when to buy the ski pass. The ski pass is free for children under 6 years old.
Please note that the language of instruction will only be confirmed after booking

All three of our girls signed up for ski lessons. One of them decided she wanted to snowboard before the holidays. We discussed this beforehand, and it wasn't a problem at all. She had snowboard lessons with Wouter, who's a fantastic instructor. He was so patient and age-appropriate. He kept in close contact with us as parents. We knew exactly what to expect from him. Our daughter had a fantastic time. Our other girls also learned so much from skiing. Highly recommended!
Our son had never been on skis before the holiday. We initially booked three days, but he wanted a fourth. He was already enjoying skiing after just a few days. He learned so well.
Our son learned to ski in a very short time. He showed us his progress every day and had a lot of fun with his ski instructor.
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.
Lunch supervision can be booked with the lessons. The meal itself, which includes a main course, a dessert, and a drink, can be purchased on-site from the ski instructor for €18 per day. Vegetarian options are also available.
First-time skiers do not need a ski pass on the first day. The instructor will let you know when a ski pass is required. For children under 6 years old, the ski pass is free.
On the first day, children are placed into small groups with others of a similar age and ability level. This ensures they can learn and have fun together.
The instructors are multilingual. While many reviews mention lessons being available in Dutch, English and German, the specific language of instruction for your course will be confirmed after you have booked.
The lessons are suitable for children between 3 and 15 years old who are skiing for the first time.
