Starter Courses for Beginners
These courses are for those who have never skied before or, at best, have only skied on Alpine slopes and never tried cross-country. The emphasis is on the basic skills and techniques of classic (track) skiing, though the week will include a fair amount of ski touring.

Skills Coaching Courses for a better Cross-Country Ski Technique
Our skills coaching courses are aimed at skiers who have mastered the basics of track skiing and are now looking to improve different aspects of their technique. The week will include plenty of touring over interesting terrain, and may also include ski skating. These are our most popular courses, so please book early.
A quote from a 2019 skier: "Simply brilliant".
A Families' Week for all the Family
The week 16-23 February (Half-Term Week) is our Families' Week. The programme is especially designed for families and children. Children are grouped separately for instruction allowing adults to ski with their own instructor. However, families are then brought together for other activities later in the day. These may include: 'on snow games', ski orienteering, dog sledding and tobogganing.
In 2020 this week is likely to be very busy. To avoid disappointment, and to get the accommodation you require, please book early!
A quote from a 2019 parent: "A fantastic experience and just great fun".
Free-style (Ski Skating) Week
This will be a Nordic skills week (9-16 February) with an emphasis on ski skating for both (skate) beginners and also those skiers who have already tried ski skating, but are aware that they need some technical coaching. There will also be an opportunity for some touring on classic skis.
