Depending on physical condition, adaptive ski lessons of 2 hours in the morning and 2 hours in the afternoon can be arranged.
The Adaptive Ski School gives private lessons in blocks of 1 or 2 hours in charge of an adapted ski instructor. We recommend to take blocks of 2 hours to make the most of the classes.
Classes are from 9:00 am to 2:30 pm (last block of classes from 2:30 pm to 4:30 pm), classes are held from platform 1600 at the cable car exit.
If you present a medical report, the ticket is free of charge. (we take care of requesting the ticket). You only have to pay for the insurance and the chip, which once the classes are over, the money for the chip is reversed.
The classes include all the equipment to carry out the activity. (not clothes)
The skier must reach platform 1600 on their own, although there is assistance at the ski resort, it is better to travel with a companion who has a free pedestrian ticket( not for ski).
