We meet 1 hour before the course starts at our ski school next to the Ettelsberg cable car (Zur Hoppecke 5, 34508 Willingen).
Our snowboard course in Willingen is aimed at anyone aged 10 and over who wants to learn to snowboard from scratch or has very little experience.
The course takes place on the Dorfwiese. Therefore, every participant must have a valid lift pass before the course begins – this is not included in the course price and must be purchased independently at the lift ticket office.
On the course, you’ll learn the correct posture, how to brake safely and how to make your first turns on the board. With our experienced snowboard instructors, you’ll make rapid progress and have loads of fun!
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.
The lunch break lasts from 11:45 am to 12:15 pm. Lunch is not included in the course, so please prepare a lunch box. There is also no time to go to a restaurant during the lunch break.
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 participants 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.
These beginner snowboard lessons in Willingen are highly praised, with over 75% of reviewers giving a five-star rating. The experience is particularly popular with families and first-timers. Reviewers consistently highlight the 'WIRKLICH TOLLES TEAM' of instructors, describing them as friendly, competent, and very patient, which helps beginners learn quickly and gain confidence on the board. While a few found groups could be large or the price a bit high, the vast majority felt the course was effective and fun. Many were able to ride the slopes independently after just a short time, making it a highly recommended experience.

Friendly teacher, Claus, didn't speak English, but since we do, that wasn't a problem. There were also English-speaking teachers, but we found ours very friendly, so we stuck with him. The group wasn't very large, so there was plenty of attention for everyone.
The teachers were very competent; in 2 days of 2 hours each we were able to learn a lot and became increasingly confident on the board.
