General information

The right ski course for you

Find your course level and get started

To ensure you get the ski course that suits your ability, we have clearly structured our course classes – from beginners to experts. This makes it easy for you to assess your own level and get exactly the training you need to improve. Our goal is to support you individually and challenge you at the same time – tailored to your experience and skiing ability. The course classes are structured according to the snow sports philosophy of the German Ski Instructors Association and are colour-coded according to the slope markings. This allows you to quickly find your level – and we are of course always available to advise you if you are unsure.
