About the Activity
What to Expect
These private ski lessons in Gerlos are ideal for adults and kids from 4 years old of all levels. Nestled in the Zillertal Arena, Gerlos offers a picturesque setting with its snowy peaks and well-groomed pistes. Whether you are a beginner eager to learn the basics or an advanced skier aiming to refine your technique, you can progress at your own pace.
For beginners, the focus is on mastering the basics, such as how to stand, stop, and make your first turns. These foundational skills are crucial as they lay the groundwork for more advanced techniques. Meanwhile, advanced skiers will delve into parallel skiing, tackling steeper slopes, and fine-tuning their posture and control. These skills are essential for improving speed and efficiency on the slopes.
Throughout your lesson, you will explore specific areas of the Gerlos resort, selected based on your skill level. One-on-one sessions or small private groups of up to four people ensure personalized attention, whether you are with family or friends. The instructor will guide you through various terrains, offering tips and feedback to enhance your skiing experience. By the end of the lesson, you will have gained new skills and confidence, ready to enjoy the stunning alpine landscape that Gerlos has to offer.
Meeting Time
We meet at our meeting point at the practice area close to the Arena Center at the mountain station of Isskogelbahn, 10 minutes before the start of the lesson. Please note that going up to the mountain station from the valley can take up to 15 minutes, or even longer during high-season.
Important! If you are a beginner or do not have much experience (only indoor experience), we ask you NOT to take the Dorfbahn because there is no practice area there. In this case, please take the ISSKOGELBAHN. You will get off the gondola and find yourself directly in the beginner area.
Ski Pass
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.
Advanced skiers need a ski pass for the lessons. You can buy your ski pass at the lift station before the first lesson.
Please be aware that you need a ski pass to take your kid to the meeting point.
Kids with some skiing experience need a ski pass. Kids under 6 years get one for free. It can be picked up at the lift station.

You should wear warm clothing suitable for winter sports. Other accessories such as gloves, a ski mask and sunglasses are strongly recommended.
When should I collect my equipment?
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.
Where can I buy a ski pass?
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.

Can I take lessons with my family or friends?
Yes, you can take lessons with your family or friends. The private lessons can accommodate up to 4 participants, provided everyone has a similar skill level.
