SKI COURSE FOR SMALL CHILDREN FROM 3 YEARS IN DORFGASTEIN
Here the smallest are the biggest!
In our Mini Club, your little ski stars from the age of 3 are lovingly cared for and taught all day by our certified pedagogues and trained children’s ski instructors. On more than 250 m² the ski dwarfs have a child-friendly designed ski kindergarten for the toddler ski course in Dorfgastein with playroom, dining room, ski depot, checkroom, rest corner and sanitary facilities at their disposal.
Indoor ski kindergarten in Dorfgastein
Our ski kindergarten is located at the valley station of the gondola lift directly next to the Gasti snow park and creates the optimal conditions for fun and varied ski lessons at the children’s ski school Dorfgastein. For the advanced ski aces, a friendly dining and play room at the mid-station of the gondola lift will keep your kids in a good mood and well fed during the lunch break.

Valid for full-day courses – cannot be combined with other discounts!
Taster Day & Taster Lesson
You are not sure whether your children can already do without mom and dad on ski vacation? Then book a trial day or trial lesson and give it a try! The price of our trial tickets will of course be credited when you extend your course.
Full-day care: 10.00 am – 3.30 pm
Of course, if you wish, we can also look after your children in our ski kindergarten during the lunch break (12.00 – 1.00) and after the end of the course (3.00 – 3.30). In our dining and playroom at the middle station and our ski kindergarten at the valley station, a delicious children’s menu is ready for the hungry ski stars. And throughout the week, a varied animation program ensures lots of fun and action.
Lift pass
The ski pass is not included in the course price. Lift tickets are available in our online store or can be purchased directly on site at our ski school office or at the lift ticket offices next door. Beginners and slightly advanced children can use the 3 magic carpets and the ski carousel in our ski school’s own children’s area free of charge to learn the basic technique. Children need a lift pass as soon as they can turn and brake and use a ski lift. Children up to their 6th birthday can use all lift facilities with the reduced Mini Card. Children from the age of 6 need a regular lift ticket for the Dorfgastein-Großarltal ski area.
Ski rental
The ski equipment is not included in the course price! Make sure you have the right ski length (beginners max chest height) and good boot material. Warm clothing, gloves, ski or sunglasses, balaclava, helmet and sunscreen are also part of an optimal equipment. Children up to the age of 15 are required by law to wear a ski helmet. Ski poles are not required for beginners. The appropriate ski equipment can be rented from our rental partner Sport Knauseder.
Ski race
The big final race will take place on Thursday.
The race takes only about 15 minutes per group. Therefore we would recommend you to book the children’s ski course up to and including Thursday. There is a schedule for the race. The ski instructors will inform you about the start time in the morning before the race.
Award ceremony
The award ceremony and prize giving will take place on Thursday after the ski course within the group.
Top equipped!
Nothing is as important to us as the health of your children, which is why we offer free ski helmet and safety vest rental for all course participants in our ski school office.
Full-day care
10.00 am – 3.30 pm
Your children are in the best hands with us and will receive full-day instruction and caring attention from 10.00 am – 3.30 pm. Our experienced professional staff will take care of your loved ones in our toddler ski course not only during the course times, but also supervise them during the lunch break and after the end of the course in our ski kindergarten.
In the Mini Club of the Ski School Dorfgastein your darlings will gain their first positive skiing experiences in a playful way and with lots of fun and variety in our Mini-Land, which is specially designed for toddlers. This ensures all-round care throughout the day and you can enjoy our wonderful ski area in Dorfgastein without any worries.
Kinderland in Dorfgastein for bambinis
Our Mini Land is a safe, secluded exercise area with a magic carpet especially for toddlers. Here the minis can playfully try out sliding and braking in the snow for the first time. When the kids are already more confident on their skis and have mastered their first descents, we move on to our Gasti snow park.
