Half-day lessons in Italy or Austria

8 replies

Keen on Austria or Italy for skiing but have discounted them in the past because any resort I've looked at only offers full-day lessons for non-beginners. This is really appealing but I don't think the DDs will go for it Wink

Does anyone know of any resorts in Italy or Austria that offer half-day lessons and a reasonable amount of interesting runs for intermediate/advanced adult skiers please?

Italy only did half days when we went to Cervinia.

Niederau does. Small resort but some great advanced runs.

Most places I've been to in Italy do half days.. including Canazei. We're also going to Scheffau in austria this year and 1 of the ski schools there offers half days.

Try here for the Dolomites.. all seem to be half day:

We go to obereggen in Italy - ski school there is only half a day for children and adults. Might not be so great for advanced skiers though...

It was 1/2 day ski school last year in Passo Tonale, Italy. We didn't use it but friend's DD's did.

We used this ski school in Cervinia - 2hr / 3hr / half day and full day options.

Sorry I've only just spotted these replies. We've booked France now but will keep a note of these for future reference
