No. The skiing-passes have to be bought at the counter of the cable-cab. Please note that children up to 6 six years do not need any separate passes. All the tariffs you can find on the following website: https://www.skiwelt.at.

We do offer half-day-courses, but only for 3 year old children (called „Bambinikurs“), for cross-country skiing-courses and of course for private courses. All other courses are held units of four hours (2 h in the morning and another 2 h in the afternoon)!

The group-classification of the children is primarily determined by their skiing skills and the age. So in the case that your kids or your friend’s kids are at the same level, concerning their skiing skills, please tell us your wish immediately at the first day and we will do our best to fulfil your exigencies. In the case that one of your kids is skiing better than the other but you still want them to be in the same group, you have to accept the fact that the better skiing kid will have to consider the weaker one.

No, the classification is very well managed. When the lessons of the kids are over, they are looked after until the parents can pick them up.

Generally a refund of the money can only occur if you can show a medical attest in case of a disease or an injury. But as for us the children’s welfare is of uppermost importance, you only have to pay the essentially consumed lessons.

Yes, of course. Please buy the lunch service directly at the instructor of your children.

Children of four years and older can start attending the courses (full-time course). But we offer a special course, called Bambinikurs, for the younger kids as well. This course is for 3 - 4 year-olds and is held only half the day with afternoon care (playing). For snowboarding courses we recommend you a starting age of 8.

Yes, everybody needs a skiing pass for the use of the lifts. Beginners should buy a one-day-ticket for the first day and talk to their skiing instructor after the lessons about the various ticket possibilities for the rest of the week.

Our programme for groups is specially designed for one week and contains lots of great aspects and a final race at the end of the week. That’s why it’s really meaningful booking the whole course. But of course it is also possible attending the course only for a few days.

At the first day you have to prove your skiing skills by a short race of a little hill. Then our skiing instructors will decide which group you belong to.

Of course you can switch the course if you are not happy with the chosen one. But please inform our office about the change, so we can book a different course.

Generally the group divisions are held Sundays and Mondays. But advanced skiers can also join the groups during the week. Please note that we have additional courses for snowboard-starters which are also beginning Wednesdays.

Basically this possibility is given, but we ask you to inform us about your wish as soon as possible by phone or e-mail. We will of course do our best to consider your preference, but cannot guarantee when it comes to group courses.

Once there was the option of a half-day-course, but as the experience has shown it wasn’t half-way that successful for the pupils as the whole-day-courses are.

Normally the group-courses are quite flexible and offer plenty of places. However we recommend you an online registration on our website, which enables a quicker application in our office.

You should attend the course one day after another, as the group is moving further with the programme. They learn something new every day and are getting better. So if you let a day out, you may change the group. But it will be the best, if you talk to your skiing instructor about this request.

In Hopfgarten, there are plenty of very good and professional sports outfitters and we collaborate with them very well indeed. But unfortunately there aren't any extra conditions for skiing guests. All the adresses of ski rentals you can find on the following websites: KURZ Ski - Snowboard and Intersport Oberhauser.

In fact we do have Dutch, but also Austrian skiing instructors that speak a little bit Dutch. Please note, that we can not promise, that you will get a Dutch skiing instructor.
