Snowsports Lessons

The Nevis Range Ski and Snowboard School has friendly and motivated instructors will give all standards of skiers and boarders the best learning experience possible. Whether you are standing on skis or a snowboard for the first time or looking to make your first jump into the back corries, our instructors will put you at ease.

The school can also offer specialist lessons when conditions permit in bumps, off piste and use of the terrain park.  With a little warning we may be able to organise classes in telemarking, blading, snowshoeing and adaptive skiing for disabled skiers, however it is essential that these lessons are booked in advance..

Our top instructors are I.S.I.A qualified and trained to coach up to race level, however we cater for all levels of ability from complete beginners to advanced.

The minimum age for standard ski school group lesson is age 7 for skiers and age 9 for snowboarders. For wee ones we offer a special private lesson price to allow them to learn in the best possible environment.

Lesson Times: Group lessons from 09.45 - 11.45. Private lessons from 12.30 onwards.  Group lessons for intermediates and above are subject to availability so please enquire. 

Private Lessons: One to one instruction, or in a small group, great for consolidating skills and learning new techniques or for that first venture off piste. Alternatively if you have limited time, or want to build on the lesson from the day before with a particular instructor, this is a good option for you.

Learning young !Junior/Adult Training: Courses are available through the Scottish Ski Club
