Levels

This course is aimed at skiers of levels 1 to 5:

Level 1: Complete Beginner: No prior knowledge required – everyone has to start somewhere. With patience and the right guidance, you will learn the fundamentals of skiing.

Level 2: Advanced Beginner (1): You can handle the magic carpet and the drag lift, and are able to somewhat control your speed and direction on practice slopes.

Level 3: Advanced Beginner (2): You are familiar with all lifts on practice and easy slopes, can confidently carve turns, and adjust your speed in any situation.

Level 4: Intermediate: Blue slopes are no problem for you. You make smooth turns and occasionally keep your skis parallel as a skier.

Level 5: Advanced Intermediate: You feel comfortable on red slopes under good conditions. Challenges like ice, moguls, or deep snow are an exciting next step for you.
