How old do my children need to be to take a ski lesson?
The minimum age is 3 to take a ski lesson. The program we offer for 3 year olds is our Daycare Plus. This is a full day or half day of daycare with a 1 hour private lesson included. There is also a weekend program for locals that runs on Sat and Sun mornings called Too Cool for School.
If we enroll our children in the Adventure Week 5 day can we take a day off?
No, the program is designed to run consecutively.
Will the children get the same instructor if they take the Adventure Week?
We try to keep the same instructor with the group if lessons are from Monday to Friday
Does my child get to go outside when they are booked into the daycare?
Yes, our daycare staff take the children out as much as possible to enjoy the fresh mountain air
Is lunch included with the childrens programs?
Yes, lunch is included in all our full day programs
Which runs do you recommend for children?
The Peanut Trail has to be the most popular children’s run on the mountain. You can access this from the top of the Comet just before the Sundance turnoff. Other favourite runs are gopher glades between Far Out and Sundance. Robin’s Hood and Sherwood Forest on the Silver Woods chair. Gypsy Queen on the Powder Gulch.
How old do my children need to be to take a snowboard lesson?
The minimum age for snowboarding is 7, this is due to the fact that kids under the age of 7 have an easier time balancing in a side to side manner rather than a front to back manner.
What if my child gets lost?
Should this happen, we have lost child procedures that all of our pros and mountain staff are trained for.
Programs for 3 year olds, what do you offer?
3 year olds can either go into regular private lessons or into our daycare plus program which is daycare with a private lesson and includes rentals.
