Winter Sports
Overview
Winter sports cover a lot of ground: skiing down a piste, learning to snowboard, floating through fresh snow, or heading off on snowshoes. The common thread is cold air, big views and a fair amount of falling over, which never quite stops, even for the good ones.
There is a level for everyone. Lessons get complete beginners sliding and turning safely within a day or two, and instructors and guides help more confident riders into steeper, quieter terrain. Skiing tends to be easier at first, snowboarding a bit harder to start and then quick to click.
The instructors on adventuro cover lessons, courses and guided days right through the season. Warm waterproof layers, a helmet and a sense of humour go a long way.
FAQs
No. Beginner lessons assume you have never been on snow, and instructors get you sliding and turning safely from the first day.
Skiing is usually easier for the first day or two. Snowboarding is harder at the start and then clicks quickly. Both are worth it.
With lessons, sensible terrain and the right gear, the risks are well managed. Instructors teach you control and awareness early on.
Warm waterproof layers, gloves, goggles and a helmet. A base layer that wicks sweat makes a real difference.
Skis or board, boots and helmet are usually hired at the resort or included with lessons. The clothing is normally your own.
A bit of general fitness helps you enjoy full days, but beginners can take it at their own pace and stop for hot chocolate.
The season usually runs from winter into spring, depending on the resort and the snow. Operators will point you to the best windows.
