Learn to ski in Feldberg
With its 1493m, the Feldberg mountain is the highest peak of the “Deutsches Mittelgebirge”, the German highlands. It is also the centre of Liftverbund Feldberg, the biggest network of ski resorts in the Black Forest. In Feldberg, skiers can enjoy the slopes on the Seebuck (1450m) and the Grafenmatt (1380m). On the latter, you can discover the resort’s longest descent: the 3km-long so-called Rothausabfahrt. The real highlights of this ski area are the challenging FIS snowboard and ski cross slopes on which the very best athletes compete once a year.
The ski resort is approximately 2 to 3h away from Stuttgart and Frankfurt. Due to the resort’s proximity to two major German cities, the resort is very popular on weekends. Consequently, the ski schools in Feldberg are very well adapted to the needs of vacationists staying for a few days only or over the weekend. For example, the ski lessons start daily here. With its numerous blue slopes, the ski resort Feldberg is simply perfect for beginners and families wanting to make their first steps into the world of skiing. The meeting points for beginners’ lessons usually are at the respective ski school offices of the ski schools in Feldberg or in close proximity to a ski lift station, like the Grafenmatt lift for example.
Next to the Grafenmatt lift lies the kingdom of Hopsi, the loveable ski rabbit. The mascot welcomes kids from the age of 4 to its kids’ area. Magic carpets, a ski carousel and many different training areas make the little skiers’ first slides easier and more fun. The ski schools in Feldberg usually divide the kids into groups on the first day of a lesson. The groups are formed according to the children’s age and the level of experience. While beginners learn how to make turns and the snowplough technique on an even surface, experienced kids work on their parallel turns and carving techniques with the help of the ski schools in Feldberg.

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.
