Already mastered the steered turn? Ready to go off piste? Know how to ski in any type of snow? Want to go on getting better and emulate the grand masters of international skiing? For all those who have already reached a high level of skiing, there is also a wide range of products on offer at the Grandvalira Ski and Snowboarding School.

Questions related to ski lessons

How many ski levels are there?

Ski slopes are divided into 4 levels: green (beginner), blue (novice), red (intermediate-advanced), and black (very advanced).

Which is easier, skiing or snowboarding?

Getting used to a snowboard or switching from one to skis is mainly about adjusting balance and the movements used for propulsion. The key lies in the amount of time you have and your interest.
