Kids Ski Lessons (6-11 y.) for All Levels in Astún

About the Activity

What to Expect

Give your child an unforgettable skiing experience with our lessons for kids aged 6 and up in Astún, one of the top ski resorts in the Pyrenees. The resort offers a diverse range of slopes, making it perfect for all levels of skiers. With over 50 km of slopes, Astún provides an ideal setting for young skiers to learn and improve. Small group sizes of up to 8 children ensure personalized attention, allowing each child to progress at their own pace while enjoying the beautiful scenery.

Lessons begin with a gentle warm-up, followed by an introduction to the ski equipment and basic techniques. Young beginners will learn essential skills such as wedge turns, which are crucial for developing initial balance and control on the slopes. As confidence builds, the children will advance to parallel skiing on green and blue runs, focusing on enhancing their balance and steering abilities. This progression is designed to make skiing both fun and educational, encouraging kids to embrace the sport with enthusiasm.

For more experienced skiers, the lessons focus on refining turns and tackling steeper slopes. These sessions are structured to boost technique and confidence, allowing children to master more challenging terrains. The supportive and encouraging environment of Astún ensures that all learners feel comfortable and motivated. Here, kids have the opportunity to improve their skills while enjoying the stunning mountain vistas, making their ski experience both memorable and enriching.

Meeting Time

We meet at the parking lot, right at the foot of the slopes, 10 minutes before the start of the lesson. You will be able to recognize our ski instructors by their marine-blue jacket, with "Skicenter" written on the back.

Ski Pass

All skiers need a ski pass from the first day of the lessons. You can buy your ski pass at the ski lift ticket office or online before the first lesson.

Please be aware that you need a ski pass to take your kid to the meeting point.

If you book your ski pass with Skicenter, we offer two convenient options: Delivery to your accommodation: we’ll bring your passes the afternoon before, so they’re ready for use.
