School ski trips to Schladming
Host to the 2013 World Cup, Schladming’s ski facilities are exactly as you’d expect – world-class, top-notch snowmaking, perfectly groomed trails, and encouraging instructors. A brilliant system of chairs and gondolas whisk you around its incredible 230km ski area, while the town of Schladming makes for a great base for your group, with Austrian skittles and ski shows available long after your day on the slopes is over.
Features
Well-organised nursery zones and gentle blues create a stress free learning ground for beginners, who can master their skiing technique on beautifully groomed slopes. Skiers who can already link their turns have the run of the mountain, with stacks of choice
in the Schladming area, including winding tracks through thick forest and a long run through the Hochwurzen Valley. Advanced skiers will enjoy the challenge of Planai’s championship downhill course and its exhilarating steep final straight.
