Fun on the Slope for Beginners and Experienced Athletes

The SNOWSport-Team at the University Sports Center supervises the annual Snow Event. Experienced trainers lead the workshops and give helpful tips on snow sports. If you feel uncertain but would like to try out the slope, our beginners' courses are just for you. Individuals with skiing and snowboarding experience can hone their skills in various workshops for experienced individuals with qualified instructors. A joint get together in the ski lodges ensures a good mood, social atmosphere, and a great evening on the other side of the slope.

4-hour ski pass

A 4 hour ski pass is included in the price. Your ski pass timer always stops when you leave the slope within the allotted time. The timer continues on your return to the slope. So you can feel free to leave the slope without the time on your ski pass running out.
