Adventure Details
The contagious enthusiasm of our instructors will inspire you to be your best. We are dedicated to offering the best quality programs for all our guests. We strive to make you a better skier or rider while adding to your total vacation experience. Choose from Group or Private Lessons.
We understand that learning to ski or snowboard feels anything but natural at first. That’s why our expert instructors are here to help you love winter as much as they do!
Maybe it’s your first time on the snow. Maybe you’re switching between skiing and snowboarding. Maybe you haven’t hit the slopes in years and want to regain confidence. Or maybe you’re an expert who wants to work on a specific skill. No matter your level, we’ll help you build confidence, progress your skills safely, and make great memories at the same time!
Snow School programs are available for every level of skier or snowboarder, from ages 3 and up. Options range from Level 1 (first time skiing or snowboarding) all the way to Level 7 (confident on any terrain, anywhere on the mountain).
