Alpine ski school - Orsa Grönklitt

We teach snow joy

Develop the entire family's skiing

In our alpine ski school, everyone is welcome regardless of age. Every day it´s full speed ahead. From the youngest to adults who want to learn to love skiing as much as we do!

Five of our ski instructors have a degree of four, which is the highest you can have. As a feather in the cap, SLAO chooses to hold its trainings with us.

One of our most important goals is to convey a positive feeling and joy for snow, skiing and snowboarding. It may seem obvious, but it's not always easy to keep your enthusiasm up if something gets messed up. It is our teachers' experience and ability to lift you as an individual makes all the difference.

For children, play is just as important as skiing. It creates joy and a desire to want to learn more, something we adults sometimes forget about and that we can learn from our children.

Lessons on the slopes and PT - a shortcut to more fun on the slopes
Ski school is not only for children and beginners. On the contrary. A private lesson means an hour together with a personal trainer, where all the focus is on you gives your ride a real boost. Cheating? no, skip the trotting, we say and use the hours on the slopes to ride in the way you always dreamed of instead.

Ski school in a group
Shared joy is double joy. Take the opportunity to learn together with others for two or four days. You learn a lot from watching others, helping each other out and laughing together. The lessons are 60 or 75 minutes long.

Orsa Grönklitt offers everything from private lessons to group ski school for children, young people and adults of all levels.

Ski school for children

Give your children a great start in skiing with our ski school. Our experienced instructors make learning fun and safe, helping the kids develop their skills on the snow.

Lessons on the slopes and PT

A personal training session gives you an hour with a dedicated coach focused entirely on your skiing. Skip the frustration and ski the way you’ve always dreamed of!

Group ski lessons

Shared joy is double the fun! Learn skiing with others over two or four days. You'll learn a lot by watching each other and laughing together.

Meeting points

Snölekis, Snögubbar, and Smygare meet at the Skidskolebacken, located above the hostel near the Barnbacken. Personal training (PT) and other groups meet at the group signs below the Barnbacken.

Find the right group for ski school

Further down, you’ll find all our groups and information to help you choose the right group for you or your child. We want to help you get the best possible skiing experience.

Biski – Skiing is for everyone

Do you have a disability and are interested in getting out on the slopes? At Orsa Grönklitt's ski school, we're here to help. A biski consists of a stable seat mounted on two skis, allowing you to experience the thrill of skiing safely and comfortably.
