Ski Lessons and Ski Hosting

Great value group & private lessons for all abilities

The Ecole du Ski Français offer lessons to suit people of all abilities. They provide:

• group and private lessons
• downhill skiing & cross-country skiing tuition
• snowboarding tuition
• instructor training & ESF tests
• an excellent creche for younger children

There are also many independant ski-schools in the area with excellent reputations. These offer lessons, ski-guiding and tailor-made courses aimed at improving specific skills (such as back-country (off-piste) skiing, jumping, mogul technique etc)

In peak weeks, it is advisable to book lessons and courses in advance. We are happy to help you arrange tuition if required.

Ski Hosting

We also offer a ski-hosting service will help you to make the most of your time in the Alps. We can:

• familiarise you with the ski area
• show you the best runs to suit your ability
• take you to the slopes where the snow conditions are best
• help you to avoid bottlenecks
• introduce you to the best mountain restaurants.

We are not ski-instructors but are competent skiers who know the terrain well and will seek out the best snow and the most suitable runs for your ability. We aim to offer all guests who are staying for 7 nights at least one half-day guided trip during their stay. This service is complimentary but is subject to our availability.
