Youth ski courses in Gastein
Teens only! Ski course with a difference
For young people between the ages of 12 and 17, we have developed a varied and action-packed instruction model in our Teens Club, from beginner to top rider. In addition to the usual technique training, our youth groups in Dorfgastein focus on fun skiing.
The somewhat different youth ski course in Gastein with freeriding in the backcountry, slopestyle on the slopes, action in the fun park and race training.

Family Bonus
Families have it good at the Ski School Dorfgastein! Starting with the purchase of a 3-day course, the third and each additional person in your family (parents & their children) will receive a one-time 50% discount on the course fee. Valid for full-day courses – cannot be combined with other discounts!
Taster day
You are not sure whether and how long you or your children would like to attend a ski or snowboard course? Then book a taster day and try it out! The price of our taster card 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). A delicious children’s menu is ready for the hungry ski stars in our dining and play room at the middle station and our numerous partner ski huts. 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 rental for all course participants in our ski school office.
