Private freeride courses in Tuxertal

Freeride courses are designed for confident skiers or snowboarders who are comfortable on red and black runs. Deep snow requires a different technique than riding on groomed slopes. If you are unsure, we will be happy to advise you before booking.

Our private courses are suitable for:

• Freeride beginners

• Advanced freeriders

• Powder lovers

• Ski tourers who want to improve their downhill technique

• Families or groups of friends with similar riding abilities

Since it is private instruction, we adapt the course completely to your skills and goals.

Depending on the course, avalanche safety equipment is required. For riding outside of secured ski areas, an avalanche transceiver, probe, and shovel are part of the standard equipment. You can conveniently rent the equipment from us, provided it is still available. We are happy to assist you with the organization. If you have your own equipment, please check before the start of the course whether it is complete and functional.

Yes. Private lessons can be booked by individuals, couples, families, or small groups. The only requirement is a similar level of ability so that everyone benefits optimally from the instruction.

Lessons generally take place in all weather conditions. If safety cannot be guaranteed due to high avalanche danger or other safety-related events, the lesson will be moved to another day or to a different ski area.

No. For private lessons, you need a valid ski pass.

Yes. Our private freeride courses are offered for both skiers and snowboarders.

Thanks to the high altitude of up to 3,250 meters, the Hintertux Glacier in particular offers excellent conditions over an exceptionally long season. However, the best powder conditions always depend on the weather and fresh snow.

A private course helps you progress much faster. You receive individual technique training, learn to assess terrain correctly, avoid typical mistakes, and benefit from the local knowledge of experienced freeride guides. This not only ensures more safety but also significantly more riding fun.

Since our freeride courses depend on current snow, weather, and safety conditions, final planning only takes place shortly before the course begins. We can often judge whether conditions allow for a safe course as early as the day before. Therefore, we ask you to contact our office the day before. We will then discuss the final meeting point, start time, and all other important information regarding your freeride course.
