Snowboard course for beginners: your first day on a board

A snowboard course for beginners starts from scratch with us: stance, falling safely, stopping, first turns. Most beginners are riding down the practice slope on their own by the end of the first course day. How a day like that runs, step by step, is in the snowboard course schedule; the way to the meeting point is described in the directions to the Fallbachhang. Our guide Learn to snowboard explains step by step what you practise.

A snowboard course for adults is the normal case with us — it is worth starting at any age. From the group basic course for beginners and improvers, through the personal Private lesson, to the children's snowboard course, there is the right lesson for every goal. Pick your course and preferred date from the snowboard course schedule above. Everything else about equipment, weather and cancellation is answered in the frequently asked questions about the snowboard school.
