CHRISTMAS TRIP LESSONS
While we recommend taking some introductory lessons before heading out, we offer lessons to all abilities on the Christmas Trip in January. Whether you're starting from scratch or just need a bit of a refresher after a couple years away from the slopes, the ESF ski instructors will get you up to speed in no time. These expert instructors take all their lessons in English and run during 2-hour blocks in the mornings, leaving plenty time for meeting your friends in the afternoon. There is a range of booking options to choose from so you can get the perfect number of lessons for you.
