Learn to ski in Sölden
World Cup venue, one of the most famous winter and glacier ski resorts and THE party hotspot of the Alps - this is Sölden! Only 1 hour away from Innsbruck, ski fans can practise their passion - skiing - thanks to the Tiefenbach and Rettenbach glacier from September to May. Sölden gives skiers even the chance to conquer 3 impressive mountains above 3000m sea level during winter: the Gaislachkogel, the Tiefenbachkogel and the Schwarze Schneide.
In Sölden, skiing is best learned on the Giggijoch with its numerous blue slopes. Many ski schools in Sölden are therefore located in the immediate vicinity of the Giggijoch cable car. The meeting point for the beginners' lessons is usually right next to the mountain station of the Giggijoch cable car - pay attention to the ski school flags.
You cannot start skiing soon enough. The real fun begins at the top station of the Giggijoch cable car. The Kinderland is right next to the Giggijoch Restaurant and awaits ski enthusiastic kids with a magic carpet, a fairy tale meadow and various obstacles. Bobo the Penguin - a real expert when it comes to snow - provides an extra portion of fun in his BOBO's Minis and BOBO's Kids courses.

When should we book?

How do we find our appropriate experience level?
Next to the menu item "Experience level" you will find a description of the individual experience levels. If you're still not sure, you don't need to worry. Simply choose the experience level that best suits your abilities. Before the first lesson of a group course, ski schools will assess your abilities so that you can be placed in the right group. In any case, private instructors will take your abilities into account on an individual basis.
How do we find offers including equipment?

You will find offers including equipment faster if you select the filter "Ski rental including" under the menu item "Popular options".

You will find a detailed list of the included rental items in the respective offer description.
There is no offer including equipment, where can we alternatively rent equipment?
In a ski resort there is almost without exception the possibility to rent winter sports equipment. If you book via CheckYeti, you will receive discounts from our partner Skiset, where you can conveniently reserve your equipment online.
How many participants are usually in a group?
This depends on the ski school. Some ski schools have a maximum number of participants per group. You can find this information in the descriptions of the offers.
At what age can children ski or snowboard?
There is no fixed age limit here. Supported by specially trained children's ski instructors, children can already learn to ski playfully at kindergarten age. Depending on the children's level of motoric and social development, the ideal starting age is between 4 and 5 years. Occasionally there are children who can already learn to ski at the age of 3 1/2 years.
How many days should the lessons last for our children?
During the holiday weeks, children's ski courses for beginners usually start on Sunday or Monday. The program is designed in such a way that the best learning results are achieved when your children take part in the ski course throughout the week. So they don't miss the final event (race, etc.) and experience a great week with their group. For advanced children the learning success usually kicks in on the third day.
Is it better to put our child in a group lesson or a private tuition?
The group lessons are generally recommended for beginners. Learning together with peers is more fun. The children are not constantly in the focus and have the possibility to catch their breath between the individual exercises, while the other children are on it. In order not to underchallenge highly talented children, a private ski instructor is recommended.
Can we join our child with a private instructor?
Yes, that's possible. Some providers even offer special family offers. Otherwise, you can simply book a private instructor for children or adults and inform the ski school after booking that you would like to go together.
