Frequently asked questions
Is the ski pass included in the lesson?
The ski passes have to be bought separately. You can find the info on the passes here: Bergbahn
You can also buy ski passes in our office Unterdorf 14/3.
Do the kids beginners groups need a ski pass?
Kids and bambini beginners do not need a pass in the first few days. Practicing in the beginner area is free of charge. As soon as we leave the beginner area you need a ski pass. We advise to buy ski passes for beginner adults and youth. Ask your teacher about needing a ski pass. Advanced skiers all need a ski pass. There are family tariffs: Bergbahn Familientarife
Is it required to wear a helmet in Austria?
No, but we recommend every participant to wear a helmet. Kids and youth are required to wear a helmet in our lessons. All our teachers wear helmets, except those in the beginner area.
Can our kids go together in a group?
We appoint kids to their groups based on their skill and age. If your children and friend of your children ski on the same level, please inform us and we will see if they will fit in one group. If they do not ski on the same level, the child that skis better will have to cope with the skill level of the other.
How can I book my lessons?
You can book online (group lessons only), by email or in our office.
Do we have to book the full 5 (6) days, or can we book less days?
The program is built up for the entire week, with a race on Friday. It would make sense to book the full 5 (6) days. But it is very possible to book less days.
Is there a difference if we book 2 or 3 days and then extend the lesson?
Yes, there is a difference between the 2 or 3 day extension rate.
Is it possible to make it in time if both parents and children are booked for a lesson?
Yes, the adults and children do start the lesson at the same time. But the kids get appointed to their groups at 9:30 in the beginner area, from that time on they are supervised by our teachers. The adults get appointed at 9:45. If your children are not booked for lunch, they will be waiting with our teachers at the house on the beginner area.
What do the children have to wear for the lessons?
Good skiing gear consists of: Skis, boots, helmet and a ski suit that keeps warm and dry. Gloves are important to prevent injury and keep the hands warm. You can rent fitting skis and boots at one of the shops in Lermoos.
How does the group classification take place?
Most our guest book online, by email or in our office and can try classify themselves. When you arrive on the beginner area to be appointed to your group, we will ask some questions about your experience and will appoint you to the right group. This is faster and as effective as showing us how you ski. If the classification was not correct, then it is possible to change groups. Please ask your teacher.
Do we get our money back if the kids don’t like it?
Normally you only get your money back in the event of illness or injury (with a confirmation of a doctor). However we offer many possibilities to minimise your “risk” (Intro day, Extensions, ...).
