We meet 1 hour before the course starts at our ski school next to the Ettelsberg cable car (Zur Hoppecke 5, 34508 Willingen).
Our children’s ski course in Willingen is aimed at young skiers aged 4 to 10 who have already gained some initial experience. To take part, your child must be able to brake safely and make turns, and must have already skied down a blue run.
Unlike the beginners’ course, this course does not take place in the Kinderland, but exclusively on the Dorfwiese. Therefore, every child must have a valid lift pass before the course begins – this is not included in the course fee and must be purchased separately at the lift ticket office.
During the course, we’ll build on their skiing technique, improve their parallel turns and their posture on the slope. This will give the children greater confidence and make their next runs even more fun. With our experienced ski instructors, they’ll make rapid progress!
If you already have your equipment and lift pass, please report to the ski school reception 15 minutes before the course starts
If you haven’t collected your equipment yet, please arrive one hour before the course starts – we strongly recommend this, particularly during the school holidays.
Please bring a printed copy of your booking confirmation with you when you arrive.
We’ll meet at our ski school (Zur Hoppecke 5, 34508 Willingen, right next to the Ettelsberg cable car). The reception is on the right-hand side just past the entrance.
If you have booked including equipment, please have your booking confirmation to hand and present it at the counter of our ski school (Zur Hoppecke 5, D - 34508 Willingen). There, the ski school manager will give you a collection slip with a barcode. With this slip, you can collect your equipment directly from the hire shop without having to queue at the till again – saving you time and a detour. Please collect your equipment in good time: either the day before or at the latest one hour before your course starts. Our opening hours are Monday to Sunday from 8 am to 5 pm. On days when floodlit skiing is available, the hire shop even stays open until 10 pm.
If you need rental equipment, please add it to your shopping cart during the checkout process when booking.
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.
The 2-hour and 1-day ski passes can also be purchased at the school to avoid waiting times at the lift
Please come to the ski school before the course starts for registration and show your CheckYeti booking code. At the office you will receive a paper to pick up the equipment.
Please note that the ski school temporarily stores participants’ personal data to organise the courses and rental equipment. On site, only names are displayed on a monitor so that you can quickly find your course.

A bad experience. Perhaps a decent place outside of school holiday weeks. 18 kids in my son’s group, session began late, a huge range in abilities across the group, and confusing information from the ski school about ski pass requirements. The instructors did their best but kids were left alone on the hill, some left crying. Would not use again unless kids are old enough to entirely look after themselves on the hills. The ski rental part was decent enough.
Very friendly and calm teacher, children have made good progress.
The children were checked to ensure they had the required skill level, and then they started right away! No long waiting 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.
