Equipment & rental
No, the equipment is not included in the course price. It should be rented in advance from a ski rental shop.
Ski equipment can be rented from Skiverleih Keiler in Aschau. The travel time from Kaltenbach to the rental shop is 6 minutes by car or 15 minutes by the Zillertalbahn train.

- Helmet
- Gloves
- Ski goggles and/or sunglasses
- Sunscreen
- Buff, neck warmer
- Thin hat, headband or balaclava
For children’s courses, the ski instructors decide when poles should be used.
Yes, children’s skis from the ski school can be stored up on the mountain.
Children & childcare
Yes, our popular children’s ski race takes place in the morning on the last day of the course. The start times will be announced by the ski instructor the day before, as each group has different times. It is best to ask briefly at the end of the previous day to make sure you are at the right starting point on time.
During the lunch break, the children eat together with the ski instructors at the Mountain View restaurant.
The ski school has its own area there. Child-friendly dishes that change daily are available (€17 incl. supervision). Please inform us before the course starts in case of allergies or intolerances.
No photos are taken during the course – the children should be able to fully concentrate on skiing.
Security & refunds
Our ski instructors provide first aid and alert mountain rescue if necessary.
Yes, upon presentation of a medical certificate, unused course days will be refunded proportionally.
