The half-day course is 2.5 hours of intensive teaching without a long break.

For advanced kids aged 6 to 13

Red and Black: this is where it gets sporty

Children who already ski confidently want more than snowplough turns. In levels Red and Black we pick advanced kids up exactly where they are – with instructors who ski sportily themselves, in small groups with kids their own age.

Race carving and slalom

Clean carved turns, gate training and the end-of-week race.

Fun park

Jumps and boxes in the Turracher Höhe fun park – step by step and safely.

Moguls and powder

For the Masterclass: technique for every kind of terrain, including off the groomed slopes.

Ski know-how

Slope rules, riding the lifts and finding your way around the whole ski area.

Level check

Small groups, big progress

No more than 8 children per group, grouped by ability: that way every child gets the attention they need and learns at their own pace. Which level suits your child?

You choose a first level when booking; we fine-tune on the slope.

  • Grün: Mein Kind steht zum ersten Mal auf Ski, kann noch nicht sicher bremsen, ist noch nie Sessellift gefahren oder hat Kurven gerade erst gelernt.
  • Hellblau: Es bremst sicher, fährt gefestigte Kurven im Pflug und ist schon Sessellift gefahren.
  • Dunkelblau: Es fährt blaue Pisten souverän alleine in Kurven, die Ski werden zwischen den Kurven schon leicht parallel.
  • Rot: Es fährt parallel auf roten Pisten und will in den Funpark.
  • Schwarz: Es carvt sicher, sucht Buckelpiste, Tiefschnee, Torlauf und Jumps.

Highlight of the week

End-of-week race and prize-giving

Every Thursday, on the final day of the course week, the Junior Stars race through the Snowstars gates – with professional timing. Parents are warmly invited to cheer along the course! Then comes the prize-giving with our mascot Pauly, the Snowstars weasel: every child receives a medal and their Snowstars certificate with Skills Pass, and finally we say goodbye to the course week together.

Skills Pass

Progress to take home

What is the Skills Pass?

The back of the Snowstars certificate: all goals from Green to Black. Our instructors tick off what your child achieved during the course week – from the first snowplough turn to the carved turn.

When do children get it?

On Thursday, the final day, at the prize-giving – together with the certificate.

Why is it useful?

Your child sees in black and white how far they've come and which goal is still missing to move up to the next level. There's a new certificate every year – you don't need to bring anything.

Kids' Technique Camp

Questions & answers

FAQ about Junior Stars

Is the course also suitable for very good skiers?

Yes. In levels Red and Black (Masterclass), advanced children train parallel skiing, race carving, slalom, moguls, powder, and jumps and boxes in the fun park – in groups of no more than 8.

Is there an end-of-week race?

Yes, every Thursday on the final day the Junior Stars ski a timed race. The same day there's the prize-giving with our mascot Pauly, a medal for every child, the Skills Pass and the farewell.

Will my 10-year-old be in a group with little ones?

Groups are based on ability across five levels. Advanced school-age children ski in levels Red and Black, not in the beginners' area.

My child is under 6 and already skis well – which group?

Children under 6 first start in Light Blue with us. If your child really skis better, we note it: they gain a day of confidence and then move to Dark Blue.

When do I need to buy the lift pass?

Before the lesson! Please get the lift pass before you bring your child to the meeting point. Anyone queuing at the ticket office on the first morning often misses the group allocation. No lift pass is needed on the magic carpet in the Kids' Land.

Is Snowstars also suitable for older and advanced children?

Yes. Junior Stars (4–13 years) comes in five levels up to Masterclass, with race carving, slalom, moguls, powder and the fun park; every Thursday, on the final day, there's a race with prize-giving. From age 14 there are the Teen Stars.

On which days do the kids' ski lessons take place?

Junior Stars (4–13 years) run Sunday to Thursday, Rising Stars (2–3 years) Sunday to Friday. There are no lessons on Saturday – except during the Christmas holidays (20 Dec 2026 – 7 Jan 2027), when the kids' courses run every day.
