Frequently asked questions:

Do kids have to wear helmet:?
The risk that a child hurts itself during a small fall is minimal. However, using ski lifts, during a collision, or if the child lies on the floor after a fall, the head is the most vulnerable. Therefore we recommend as soon as the child reaches ability group 2 to use a helmet. (We hire helmets at our ski school office)

As of what age can kids go to ski school?
At four years of age, children can start to learn how to ski.

Do kids need ski poles?
Beginners (Group 1) do not need poles, as of Group 2 you should give the child ski poles to use.

Do the children need a ski pass?
Kids as of 6 years old need a ski pass. Children born after 01.01.2006 have free admission – make sure you have ID for your children!

Clothing and sun protection:
Weather appropriate clothing, as well as sun glasses (goggles) and sun screen should always be given to the children. High Rise pants with a separate Jacket are ideal because the kids can take off their jackets incase of warmer weather or during games. Multiple layers underneath the jacket are also of advantage.
