About
Prefer to learn on your own, or with friends and family? These lessons are 1 hour long and are for skiers at any level, from beginner to advanced.
They are suitable for people aged 3 to adult, although we recommend booking a shorter Tiny Tot lesson for 3-5 year olds.
These lessons can be booked for any number of people between 1 and 10.
PLEASE NOTE: All participants must be at the same level e.g. you cannot book a beginner on the same lesson as someone on the big slope. If you do, everyone will be taught to the level of the least experienced skier.
Each lesson is led by one of our friendly, experienced ski instructors.
