School ski trips to Amadé
Set in the beautiful Austrian Alps, Amadé is a huge ski expanse made up of 29 resorts, bringing guaranteed snow and a host of local ski instructors to give expert guidance for your students. Our groups rate the huge Salzburger Sportwelt resort as the best ski area for schools, with our hotels giving easy access to the slopes. Wherever you choose to base yourselves, there’s plenty to look forward to in the evenings too – from quizzes and ice-skating to slides and whirlpools in the two local waterparks.
Features
At Amadé, one ski pass gives you access to the entire 29 resorts, offering something for everyone in your group. Runs in the local ski areas are graded as blue or red, giving your students lots of scope for improving, while testing blacks offer intermediate skiers something to aim for.
