Ski lessons for children from 4 years of age

From the very first steps on the slopes

Learn to ski in Kleinwalsertal

We have full-day ski lessons available for children aged 4 years and up, suitable for all levels of ability. The groups are divided according to skill and age, so that every child can have the easiest possible start or build on previous experience. Lunch supervision and refreshments are inclusive.

Beginners and slightly advanced children are looked after in our exclusive Kinderwelt on the Ifen.  Our ski school uses the latest equipment and playful techniques to help the children practise sequences of movement and improve their coordination in a safe setting.

Advanced children take on the challenges of the Kleinwalsertal ski area. They constantly enhance their skiing skills through cutting-edge training programmes. They are also taught about mountain safety.

A true highlight: Everyone’s a winner at the weekly ski race on Friday!

How are the skiers allocated to groups?

Most of our guests are "repeat offenders", which allows us to allocate them to groups directly and without preliminary procedures. With the lesson ticket each guest is granted assess to our mySports online portal and it is there that your progress is stored at the end of each lesson.

For those who attend a ski lesson for the first time, grouping occurs after oral discussions and estimation of skills, age and language. If the assigned group should not seem to be appropriate, you can of lesson change the group any time.

From what age should children attend a ski lesson?

From three years. We offer half-day lessons for three-year olds (Burmiclub). For all other children we offer a whole-day lessons. For snowboard lessons, however, we recommend a minimum age of 8 years. On special request, however, it is also possible for younger children to attend a snowboard lesson.

Do I have to book the complete (5) 6 lesson days or can I book less days?

Our programme for group lessons builds up throughout a week with ski race and a special programme during the weekend. It therefore makes sense to participate in the lesson for the entire (5) 6 days. It is however also possible to participate fewer days!
