Our offices are open during the winter season (5 December 2026 to 3 April 2027). Outside the season, email is the best way to reach us.
Getting here
The Schöneben-Haideralm ski area is at the Reschen Pass – just a few minutes from Nauders, about 20 minutes from Mals. Meeting point 1 and the ski school office are at the top station of the Schöneben gondola. You get up there by lift from Reschen (Schöneben-Piz valley station) or from St. Valentin (Haideralm valley station). The ski bus runs from Reschen, Graun and St. Valentin to the valley station.
Tip for beginners: from Haideralm the only way to the meeting point is a ski run. If you're staying in St. Valentin and can't ski yet, drive to Reschen for the first few days and take the gondola there.

FAQ
Good questions.
Your question isn't here? Tizi answers around the clock.
What if my child cries or doesn't want to carry on?
It happens – and we'll work out a good solution together. For the very little ones you can book the first day as a trial day. For three-year-olds there's the trial lesson with their own instructor: it shows whether your child is ready for ski school.
Can we watch?
Yes, of course. Please don't disturb the lesson – it often works better if you don't stand right next to the practice area.
And if the weather is bad?
Lessons take place in all weather. Dress your child warmly and in waterproofs.
How does pick-up work?
Please be at the meeting point 10 minutes before the end of the course. We only hand your child over to parents or guardians or to people you name – otherwise we take them to the ski school office. Please stay reachable by phone during the course.
From what age can children take a ski course?
From 4 in the Mini Club (ski beginners aged 4–6). For three-year-olds there's the trial lesson with a private instructor, and the kindergarten at the top station takes children from 3.
When do group courses start?
Every Sunday and Monday, with groups formed at 10:30 (high season: Christmas, all of February and Easter, at 10:00) at meeting point 1 at the Schöneben top station. Lessons from 11:00. Beginners start on Sunday or Monday, improvers can join any day.
Does the final race count as a course day?
No. The race is always on Friday at 10:00, taking part is optional and included in the price. Starting on Sunday means 5 course days plus the race, starting on Monday 4 course days plus the race. Improvers who join later only pay for the course days up to Thursday.
How much do the ski courses cost?
Group courses with 2 hours a day cost €170 for 3 days and €200 for 5 days; the full-day course for children with lunch is €400 for 5 days. A private lesson costs €70 (55 minutes), each additional person €20. All prices apply to winter 2026/27.
Is the ski pass included in the course price?
No. Anyone using a lift needs their own ski pass – including with the ski school. Ski passes are sold at the valley stations in Reschen (Schöneben-Piz) and St. Valentin (Haideralm). Important: in Italy, third-party liability insurance is compulsory for skiers. It is not included in the ski pass and can be bought by the day at the ticket office or online.
Are there snowboard courses?
Yes: a snowboard group course for children from 6, teens and adults, 2 hours a day, from 3 days. Private snowboard lessons are also available from age 6.
When and where is the cross-country course?
Every Thursday from 10:00 to 11:50, usually at the start of the trail in Melag, with good snow also in Reschen by the lake – we'll tell you where when you book. Per person €49 with guest card, €70 without.
How do I book and pay?
Group courses and cross-country online, by email, by phone or at the office. Private lessons, kindergarten and trial lessons directly with us by phone (+39 0473 420751) or email (info@ski-reschenpass.com). Payment is in advance: online when you book, at the office in cash or by card.
Is there ski hire?
The ski school has no hire shop of its own. You can hire equipment at Sport Folie and Sport Winkler in Reschen and at Sport Tenne and Sport Puko in St. Valentin.
Are helmets compulsory in Italy?
Yes, for everyone on the slopes. You need a CE-certified helmet.
How big are the groups?
At least 3 participants. Groups usually have 3 to 9 participants.
Which languages are lessons in?
In English, German and Italian.
Can I cancel a course?
Yes – if you cancel in writing up to 5 days before the course starts, you get your money back less a 10% handling fee. In case of illness or accident we refund unused services against a medical certificate. Tip: travel cancellation or ski insurance is worth it. Our terms and conditions apply.

Legal
Terms, privacy & imprint.
General terms and conditions
Booking and payment: Lessons and additional services must be paid for in advance, in cash or by card (Visa, Mastercard). By booking, you accept these terms. Participation is only possible on presentation of the course ticket.
Lessons: A private lesson lasts 55 minutes; where several lessons follow one another, teaching ends 10 minutes before the full or half hour. Lessons generally take place in all weather conditions. Requests for a particular instructor are met where possible. A helmet and third-party liability insurance are required by law on Italian slopes and are the participant’s responsibility.
Programme and price changes: The ski school reserves the right to change the programme and prices for organisational reasons, in particular if the minimum number of participants is not reached; in that case it may merge groups or adjust the length of the course. For bookings already paid, the booked price applies. If the ski school cancels a service, the amount paid for it is refunded.
Minors: Parents or legal guardians must be at the meeting point 10 minutes before the end of the course; otherwise the child is taken to the ski school office. Children are released only to their parents or legal guardians or to persons named by them. Only healthy children may take part. If a child falls ill or is injured, the parents are notified; they must be reachable by telephone and collect the child without delay.
Lunchtime supervision: The child’s allergies, intolerances, chronic illnesses and dietary restrictions must be notified in writing when booking, and in any case before the first day of supervision. If safe catering cannot be ensured, the ski school may decline lunchtime supervision and will refund the amount paid for it. Staff do not administer medication.
Cancellation: Cancellations must be made in writing. Up to 5 days before the start of lessons, the amount is refunded less a 10% handling fee. After that, and in the case of no-shows, there is no entitlement to a refund. In the event of illness or accident, unused services are refunded on presentation of a medical certificate, to be submitted within 5 days. There is no statutory right of withdrawal for online bookings, as these are leisure services with a specific date of performance (Art. 59(1)(n) of the Italian Consumer Code). We recommend taking out travel cancellation or ski insurance.
Liability: The ski school is liable in accordance with the statutory provisions. It is not liable for damage caused by failure to follow the instructions of its staff, by third parties, or by missing or incorrect information provided by participants or parents.
Data protection: Personal data is processed in accordance with the privacy policy at www.ski-reschenpass.com. Health information is used only with explicit consent and solely to ensure safe supervision and catering.
Governing law and jurisdiction: Italian law applies. The place of jurisdiction is Bolzano; for consumers the statutory place of jurisdiction applies. In the event of discrepancies between the language versions, the German version prevails.

What data we process and why
Visiting the website: IP address, browser, operating system and pages visited, for the security and operation of the website (legitimate interest, Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). The website is hosted by Computerspeed vGmbH as our processor. Fonts and images are on our own server; no fonts are loaded from Google.

Our emails are handled via Microsoft 365 (Microsoft Ireland Operations Ltd., Dublin). To reply faster, we have draft replies prepared by an AI service (Claude by Anthropic PBC, USA); for this, the content of your message is transmitted to Anthropic as our processor. Every reply is checked by a person and sent by us; there is no automated decision-making. The transfer to the USA is based on the European Commission’s standard contractual clauses (Art. 46 GDPR) in the data processing agreement with Anthropic; the data is not used to train AI models (according to Anthropic’s contractual terms).
Booking and running courses and childcare: name, contact details, age and ability level of participants and, for minors, the contact details of their parents or guardians (performance of a contract, Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR). Online booking runs through our service provider’s booking system (skiwork.shop). We process billing data to meet legal obligations (Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR).

Job applications: we use the data you send only for the selection process.
AI assistant “Tizi”
On our website you can ask questions to “Tizi”, an assistant based on artificial intelligence (AI). You are talking to an automated system, not a person. Tizi answers questions about our courses using the ski school’s information and recommends suitable courses; the answers are generated automatically and may contain errors. Only the booking and our terms and conditions are binding.
What data: the questions you enter and the conversation in the current session. To answer, our server forwards this content to our AI provider Anthropic PBC (USA, AI model “Claude”), which processes it on our behalf as a processor. The transfer to the USA is based on the European Commission’s standard contractual clauses (Art. 46 GDPR) in the data processing agreement with Anthropic. We do not store the conversations; they are deleted when you close or reload the page. To protect against misuse, our server only stores a pseudonymised short form (hash) of your IP address together with the number of requests, for no longer than 24 hours. The provider stores the data under its contractual terms for no longer than 30 days and does not use it to train AI models (according to Anthropic’s contractual terms).
Voice input: if you use the microphone, your browser converts speech into text (depending on the browser, using services from e.g. Google or Apple). Voice input only starts when you tap it yourself. The read-aloud function uses your device’s speech output.
Legal basis: answering your enquiry and pre-contractual measures (Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR) as well as our legitimate interest in providing fast advice around the clock (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). Using Tizi is voluntary; you can always reach us by phone or email instead.
Please note: do not enter health data, identity document details or payment details in the chat. Tizi cannot make bookings and does not ask for names or contact details.

Beyond that, we only pass on data if we are legally obliged to. We do not sell data.
Cookies and third-party services

Storage period
We keep data only for as long as necessary for the respective purpose or required by statutory retention obligations, and then delete it.
