Course entry: only on Sunday
Duration: Sunday to Thursday
Times: 10 a.m. – 12:30 p.m. and from 2 – 3:30 p.m.

Sampler Day
You have the option of booking a Sampler Day. If your child enjoys their experience, you may choose to extend, in which case you just have to pay the price difference between the sampler and multi-day courses.
Equipment
Be sure you have good-quality ski- and snowboard equipment as well as boots. Warm clothes, gloves, ski- or sunglasses, balaclava, helmet and sun block should always be included with your gear as well. The law requires that all child skiers and snowboarders under age 15 wear a safety helmet. Our sports shops in Zauchensee are Intersport Schneider www.intersport-schneider.at and Sport 2000 Klieber www.sport-klieber.at.
Lift Ticket
The lift ticket is not included in the course fee. Information and prices can be found at www.zauchensee.at/mehrtageskarten. Use of the practice area is included in the price of the ski course.

Races & Awards Ceremony
The end-of-course races take place next to the practice lift on Thursday beginning at 10:15 a.m. Precise starting times will be provided to you by the group’s ski instructor. The awards ceremony is at the assembly point starting at 3:15 p.m. All participants receive a medal and certificate. (Times may be delayed during the Christmas holidays.)
Safety for Your Children: rules of the pistes, helmet requirement, warning vests
During course times, all children are outfitted in warning safety vests! The law requires that all child skiers and snowboarders under age 15 wear a safety helmet. During the courses, we also teach children how to behave safely out on the pistes.
